45It was a huge relief to have a safe and fenced in area for our dog to get to spend some time off leash playing on our vacation. He was scared of the hose but was very happy to have sand to dig and lay in as well as a kiddie pool to drink and splash water. Lots of noises from other dogs and people, but our reactive and excitable pup did great. Would recommend, and would return.
55The fencing is secure and I had zero attention on my dog escaping. There were dogs and people but nothing they were doing in the distance bothered my dog. In fact, I was excited to see a chiropractor holding clinic for local pet owners and plan to bring my dog next month. All listed amenities were available. I appreciated the owner noticing the smaller space was not working for my particularly nose/scent driven and need to RUN dog. I was allowed to take her to the back pasture where she and I had a blast. Nice people.
55Beautiful and spacious for dogs to run and be safe
55Ferb was a very satisfied customer and had a great time running around and splashing in the kiddie pools
55This was the perfect little lot! There was water, poop bags, toys, and a kiddy pool. The grass was well manicured and the area felt very safe for my dog. It was also really cool to watch the dogs dock diving nearby.
45Gates are a little tricky To get into for an uncoordinated gal like me but the dogs had a great time!!
55Hose was available for use. Restroom available. Field was clean.
55Great space to let the pups stretch their legs while we’re staying at a hotel for the week!
55Very clean, completely fenced. My dog loved it!
45Perfect for my two furry kids. Good fenced yard with ample toys, water and poop bags. It’s nice that the offer other dog facilities and training.

North Star Ranch Private Dog Park In Archer

Hello, We would like to welcome our dog friends to our private fully fenced wooded dog park we named The North Star Ranch. The North Star is positioned right over our entrance, and you might see it if you stay at the ranch late. Please bring your own water, snacks, poo bags. Also we have no trash collection, so please take your waste home with you. This is what we do as well. Consider a visit to our ranch a visit to nature that has been fenced in for your dogs’ convenience. And as in all Florida woods, there are some safety concerns you need to be aware of before your reservation. There are more or less visible stumps and vines all over the ranch. There are also some prickly cacti, buckthorn bushes and brambles. Tree logs and trunks have been arranged in some areas as edging for trails. The ranch is a work in progress and we are very slowly cutting prickly plants back to where they aren’t in dogs’ faces, but it’s taking us a while. Long pants and closed toed shoes are very much recommended. We also suggest tick spray if you’re worried about them. We find that in winter time they are rare. Mosquito cream is available during summer months at the gate. We recommend you use it. There is a 20 liter canister of water for dogs available at the picnic table along with a black rubber bowl. There is a back gate at the ranch and we don’t suggest venturing out of, as the back of the property is NOT fenced, and trails are grown over. Please stay in the fenced-in area only for your safety! We hope you and your dog enjoy lots of sniffing while you’re either strolling along or sitting down in one of our picnic areas. There is some agility equipment available at your discretion. Please use it wisely and look out for your pet’s safety first. Wilderness warning! ⚠️ Snakes have been spotted at the ranch several times. Our dogs run through the ranch daily, so wildlife is used to human and canine presence. This was their home before we enclosed it, so we respect their presence and move around them if we spot them. To this date we haven’t had any negative experience with the wildlife, and we surely want to see you stay safe as well. Keep your eyes open if you veer off the main paths, and have some treats in your pocket to help call your dog back to you in case of a snake sighting. The sightings definitely drop off in the colder months. We hope you enjoy our ranch as much us we do! Our dogs absolutely love it and we lovingly nicknamed this place our “sanity ranch”. Enjoy!
