Top Public & Private Dog Parks in Clarksville, MD

This was our first visit and we had a great time! As stated, it’s partially fenced, so it’s best for dogs that have some recall as there are many ways for escape artists to bolt. But my boy had a blast exploring the different areas of this gorgeous property! There is so much room to run and plenty to keep him engaged for an hour. I was a little wary of the low-hanging cable between the yard and lower barn. I could easily have touched it with my hand, so was careful to keep my flirt pole low when crossing. I’m not sure how dangerous that truly is, but I’m a wimp around electrical stuff! Otherwise, it’s a magical place and I wish I could live there!! Thank you, Mel, and family, for sharing your paradise!

This was our second time back and we had a blast ! gorgeous property, lots of space to run and play. Warning to folks who have dogs that like to roll in gross things-- there is a large deer carcass on the property behind the house in the stream. I didn't see it until it was too late ... typing this this post bath lol.

Great property, lots of space to roam and sniff. My dog loved it! Especially the more wooded area, as he loves to explore. We heard a very distant bark, but it was distant enough that my dog didn’t try to investigate. The only thing I want to mention is that behind the house in the wooded area is the part where there is only partial fencing. It’s unclear how far back you can go, it goes a little far. I allowed my dog to roam a little bit while being about 20 feet behind him. There is a cement structure a little past the stream, it looks like a well or something similar. It was full of water and I didn’t see that from my angle. My dog is curious and stepped into it and fell in, almost completely submerged. He got out quickly, but it gave me a quick scare. He did get a couple scratches on his paw. This is ultimately my responsibility to make sure my dog is safe, so I do not fault the property owner for this. Just wanted to mention this to watch out for this structure. It’s possible it’s usually empty and the recent rain filled it up. We had a great time though and would return! Just keep an eye out on your dog!

We loved Mel’s place! Our dogs were so happy with so much open space. They ran for a good 70 min until they tired themselves out. The place is clean and we didn’t see any humans or other animals while there. We’ll def go back!

We had a very relaxing stroll along a wood's edge and all around a pasture and back up the paved lane. There were no people or dogs on the property and we didn't hear or see any dogs. Saw a couple of neighboring people on the other side of fences.
