55One of our favorites. Trails thru pine needle cushioned forest, huge field, grassy trails cut thru the other side of the wooded area. It’s roughly 2 miles if you walk all the trails. Water available, dog toys, place to rest by the field, ports potty at entrance. Very secure. I love the peace of mind of letting them run and sniff at their own pace without worrying they are in an unsafe area. The fencing is secure. Plus I enjoy the much needed break from our drive to recharge. Thank you for sharing your property! Karen E.

55The spot was as enjoyable as the piles of positive reviews suggest. Easy access and well maintained. My GSD and I had a great time. This was our first visit and likely won't be our last. Nick M.

55As always, it’s such an incredible space! I took a late spot as the sun was setting and the fog was settling into the valley. Even though I have my own acreage for my dogs, it’s so important to get them out for new smells. They were cashed last night full of happy new sniffs. Heather M.

55Our dog Hoagie loved this space, he had not a care in the world running around and, of course, sniffing his little heart out! Hoagie and his dad even raced each other in on the different paths in the field, and hoagie kept his eyes on his dad the entire time 😊. So happy we were finally able to go!Kyrielle P.

55Our pups had a blast tonight! They ran and ran until they couldn’t anymore and we can’t wait to come back. We went later at night to try and beat the heat for the pups; my only recommendation is to bring bug spray if you’re going that time of night. I usually keep it in my car kit, but had moved it to my other car to use last weekend. Overall humans and pups give it a 10/10 :) Dane M.

55So great that such a large area is fenced, my reindeer-chasers were a little stunned that they were contained but made me feel much more at ease. Really accommodating, beautiful place, thank you for providing it!Hana J.

55Beautiful spot - quiet woodland path and fields. My dog ran till he was “done”, so great for expending all his excess energy. I enjoyed the walk myself and used my bird ID app to identify an uncommon song: a yellow billed cuckoo. A peaceful getaway for both pets and people.Rita M.

FAQ About Fairchild Dog Parks
