55My family and I brought 4 dogs, 2 of who are quite reactive, to enjoy nature and have the chance to run without worrying about running into other dogs. They all had a blast! We will definitely be back! We did have one little escape artist slip under the fence into a neighbor's backyard but I would think most dogs 20 lbs and up would not be able to do that. Claire v.
55Great spot, loved the freedom of the fenced area and Jaxon spent the whole time running and bounding, taking in all the good sights and smells! Will definitely be backLindsey S.
55We had such a great time today! For the directionally challenged (me) it took a bit to find the entrance, an arrow with “leash free this way” would have been great, but my dogs had a great time just trying to find the gate!
I have a very reactive rescue that cannot be off leash as she will run away, but to see her run free was amazing and we will absolutely be booking this property again!
I also paid the $5 to cut sunflowers and they’re just gorgeous! Sarah T.
55A doggie dream! Huge field for the dogs to get lost in without worry of losing them. The paths are wide and winding through the very tall grass. The pond doesn't seem very deep and my dog loved wallowing around like a pig. There is about a third of the pond that isn't fenced so if they are swimmer ls just keep an eye they don't swim to the wrong side, but if they do it's right at the gate so you can quickly bolt out and grab them.
Like other reviewers have stated there is not signage for the off leash field but it is not confusing like some make you believe. Just walk down the wide mowed path and eventually to your right there is a straight path to the gate.Ali C.
35Beautiful spot. Very overgrown- to the point that you can’t see if there’s an animal hole or divot in the path. I didn’t even attempt the leashed paths. Overall, I’d say it was worth the price! Easy to get to, their property map is very helpful. With some grooming of the paths it’ll help improve my rating (as well as help with the ticks). Jennifer T.
45Beautiful space with a lot of potential, grass is very long. Would visit again but the pathways need to be cut.Erin D.
55Great spot for the pups to let off steam. Bring bug spray!Barb T.
55Thank youKrista L.
55Great, large space for dogs to run and explore! My girl particularly loved the pond 😂
Will definitely visit again when I’m in the area!Emma S.
45We had a great time! The place is huge, so much room for the doggos to run around. We felt safe; we appreciated that the fencing mesh is of a small gauge (the squares are about 2" by 3" each). We had small dogs (cavaliers), and this was great to see, and so important for us! For a relatively new sniff spot, I think you've got a great place here with loooots of potential! We'll definitely be back.Andrew K.

**Gate is back up and Fully Fenced as of April 21, 2024**
Welcome to Goldenwood Acres! On our 26 acre hobby farm, we have a 6 acre fully fenced farm field/dog park. Ride up and park at the white barn, and walk your leashed puppers to the field past our gardens, woodlots, and ponds. From the barn to the dog park you will get familiar with our surroundings and other fences. There is access to the forest and two ponds on the property. Crossing through the tree line, you have private access to the 6-acre field. Four-foot tall fencing is installed for your security.
The best time to come is May to September. Come walk between the sunflower rows that grow up to 10 feet tall in the late summer! We cut the field between the sunflowers, make trails and play spots. We also leave big areas untouched for our honeybees (hives located in the other field).
Enjoy seeing natural landscapes, trees, and privacy. Have fun, play catch and let your animal have unleashed freedom!
We have uploaded a printable "safety map" for each season, that contains a legend for your use. Note the fire pit is not available during the winter season. Park has one main gate.
This season we will also be placing picnic tables with a BBQ for large groups. I recommend booking the summer weekends in advance as they will fill up fast!
Fencing Details:
The 6-acre Dog Park Field is permanently fenced with approximately 2,500 linear feet of 4’ tall farm fence. The farm fence consists of professionally installed 2” by 4” squares of wire mesh (commonly used for smaller livestock such as sheep, donkey, cows, etc) and cedar posts. If you look at the photos you can see the locations of the gate on the main photo or on “safety map” (see photos and captions).
We have more fencing on other parts of the property outside of our dog park in case your dog does not have good recall. Refer to the safety map (see photos).
If you have any questions, please let me know.
