55A great spot for canine enrichment. My dogs are ready to leave after 45 minutes because they are so tuckered out from all the new scents at the farm. I added pics of the gates and locks. Easy to use and very secure.Karen J.

55Easy to find entrance. Liked having the catch gate area with multiple dogs. We spent the whole hour exploring the fenced in area. A really great experience Jennifer J.

55Safe, clean and lots of great sniffing! The combination of mowed paths with taller grasses created a diverse exploration experience for my dogs. Delores C.

55Beautiful property that traverses fields and woodlands. Having access to this much space fully fenced is wonderful, especially as we work to improve recall in areas full of exciting wildlife smells!Jen M.

55The Farm is the best Sniff Spot I’ve found in Michigan! My two high energy GSP’s LOVE the amount of space they can run through and sniff. It brings me so much joy to see them have such a good experience stretching their legs and running at high speed. This time we brought a guest dog who is a pug and he also loved it. You don’t have to have larger athletic dogs to have them enjoy this space! Sarah F.

55We loved The Farm! It’s extremely pet and human friendly. There are several walking paths that wind through tall grasses and a wooded area. It was a very relaxing afternoon and the dogs ran and explored the whole time. It’s so comforting to know that they can run freely with no chance of running off or getting injured. The double gates at the entrance are very helpful and keep the dogs safe. We will definitely be back. It’s worth the hour drive! Andrea B.

55My mom and I love The Farm just as much as the dogs do. It’s very peaceful and the scenery is beautiful. It also brings us joy to see the dogs so happy. They run and explore the entire time we are there. It’s so nice to know the whole area is fenced in and the dogs can’t run off. We drive about 1 hour to get to The Farm but it is definitely worth it! Thanks again for sharing your beautiful property with us! Andrea B.

55Exactly what I needed in a sniffspot! This was the first time my reactive husky has ever gotten to be fully off leash and roam to his hearts delight. I wish we lived near here, we’d visit every week!Haleigh M.

55We have a reactive border collie so it’s hard to find places to really give him a good run without distraction of other dogs or people. This is by far the BEST space in the Ann Arbor and surrounding area. It’s well maintained, has a small wooded trail, fields with pathways mowed in them, and a little agility circle. One of my dogs loved running through the brush while the other herded her. Lots of free smells and enrichment! Will definitely be repeat visitors.Sarah D.

55Beautiful spot, my 2 dogs are Husky mix and they love to run. They had the best time, running until they were pooped out. The grounds are nicely laid out with a walking trail and a mix of meadow and woods. And a stream for the dogs to get a drink. We had a great time. Julie Z.

55We went when it was raining and cold, unfortunately. Can’t predict the weather! But our girl still had a blast for the half hour she could stand to be out playing in it. She especially loves the pond. We can’t wait to be back in better weather! THANK YOU for providing a safe space for our timid rescue pup to play 🥰Kelly M.

55Don’t forget to bring towels. During the wet season The Farm can get a bit soggy. Our pup loved splashing through all the marsh. Also, keep an eye on your pup’s mouth. Our youngest found two dead field mice and was quite pleased with his “party gifts.” 🤭Jennifer L.

55This is a great space with tons of interest—the woods, the field, and the grassy play areas (all with very nice paths) made a really fun hour for our two big, energetic dogs. It’s early spring, so there are wet, muddy sections, but honestly that just added to the fun for the dogs! The fencing and gates were secure, and the host communicated with us about the mud and water beforehand, so we knew to wear boots and bring towels. Lisa D.

55Great, very secure, and so much to do! Wish we had more than an hour, the dogs had so much fun and weren’t ready to leave. Very muddy, so plan to bathe your pups after you’re done! Abbie V.

55So many smells for the pups to discover. The pond, agility course, sounds and trails through the woods in back of the 2nd field gave their brains so much activity. They slept well the rest of the night. Already booked their next run!Anne Marie B.

FAQ about our Willis dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
