Maple Ridge Farms-100 Acre Woods

Unfenced
100 acres

Our 100 acre farm has been in the family for over 30 years. We have put a lot of time and effort into the property. And we would love to share it with you and your fur family to. The trails are all very well maintained. You will likely see birds, deer and plenty of wildlife throughout the trials. We hope to see you out and about enjoying it just as much as we do with all of our animals. ****Notes**** Happy SPRING🌸🌷Please keep the weather in mind. All of our trails are in the woods. We HIGHLY recommend if the wind is Above 15 mph to reschedule. (You can cancel and get your money back-we understand) We just don’t want you or your pet getting hurt if anything were to happen in the winter woods. One other thing. Don’t forget bring those Boots. 🥾 All of our trails are usually dry. But if you do come after it rains it could be a little muddy. There could also be some sticks on the trails if it happens to be super windy the day before and we can’t always get them cleaned up right away-we do apologize in advance 😊💪 Last but not least the Porter John is gone until we have Dry Weather ☔️🥶 Thank you for checking out our spot!! We look forward to meeting you and your furfriends. 🐕☺️ Maple Ridge Farms ❤️

"Perfect woodsy getaway for the pup. Very well organized with maps and arrows, trails are marked and there’s lots of different paths to take. Frodo had a blast zipping around me on the trails and then we relaxed in the picnic area. Water is placed along the trails for the pups. We’ll be back!" more
