55The Huskies had a ball running around the field! The shorter fence is really not that short as the doggies never tried to climb or jump, especially with the yellow tubbing. There were no gaps and plenty of shade. Great place and in my area, so I'm booking more visits. Thank You!James A.
55I love this giant space! It was so clean and the dogs had so much room to sniff and explore! Seana F.
55Best place for fetch ❤️ we really enjoy it here. It seems like half the field is in shade into the afternoon which helps you stay out of the heat! Rachel J.
55Definitely our favorite spot. She has so much room to run and roam!Elizabeth K.
55It was awesome! So much open space, fenced in, dogs loved it! Will be back! Kendall W.
55Mission accomplished - my 3 dogs are happy and exhausted after running this field for an hour. Thank you for sharing your spot, we will be back!
Highlights: I was pleased to see easy access. With 3 big, excited dogs it can be a struggle to get them all into the same area at once. Here it was easy to back my Jeep up to the gate and guide them the few feet into the field without having my arms pulled out of their sockets.
Garbage can, water bowl, and balls
Completely fenced, even at the 3 foot area my dogs were secure.
Clean - no trash or dog poop
Lots of places to sniff, and my dogs enjoyed going into the vines to explore.
As a response to some other comments: it’s summer in Michigan. Expect some bugs and maybe some goose droppings. Neither one was terrible and are part of going out into nature. Check out the huge dragon flies skimming over the field eating other bugs, or the gorgeous hawk flying over the trees. Super cool.
The berries are wild grape. No, your dog absolutely should not eat them; however, they also grow in my backyard and my dogs have zero interest in them. Just watch your dog and make sure they aren’t eating plants.
The small neighbor dog did not bark and did not get near the fence line, despite my dog’s invitation to interact.
We saw one human minding his own business. Even my man hating protective dog perceived zero threat from him. It was fine.

15Field was large. Lots of goose poop. Random car with very dark tinted windows pulled up and creepily watched us for 15 mins, then pulled off when we went to leave. Random berries growing that are at dog level. Very Erie experience will not be back. Aaron D.
55LOVE LOVE LOVE this space! We have a reactive dog and it’s so nice to have a wide open space she can safely run around in. And it’s only 5 mins from our house which is an added bonus. Space is fully fenced and a trash can is there for poop bags which we really appreciated. Did not want to have to drive home with a full poop bag in 90 degree weather lol. Elizabeth K.
55Nice and private, clean and well kept grass. Tons of running space! Will be back for sure!Katie H.
55Great spacious place! A little tricky to find when using Google Maps, but Gavin sent a message before my time slot with details to easily find this spot. I definitely agree that bug spray is needed when visiting but since I was there early in the morning there weren't too many mosquitoes. This place will be perfect in the fall and winter when all of the bugs are gone. Part of the border is shared with neighbors but we didn't see or hear any other people or dogs during our visit.
There are some dog toys and a water bowl but no water source so bring your own water. Definitely bring your own poop bags as I didn't see any provided and there is a trash can for doggy bags in the dugout. The grass was well maintained but some other Sniffspotters forgot to clean up after their dogs. The yard is so big it wasn't that big of a deal and they probably thought bags would be provided and didn't bring their own.
Will definitely come back here again as my girl loved having so much room to play fetch with her toys.Nicole R.

I have owned many dogs over the years. My current is a German Shepard/Pit mix. Her favorite time of the day is "field" time.
