55The space was very private and a lot of fun for our pups. The landscape is well maintained and provides plenty of room to run carefree and play in the creek.
Water was provided for pets and people which we really appreciated and there’s a bird watching kit on the table (seats 4) so you can relax while the dogs explore.
We really enjoyed our time and will for sure be back again.
The owner is very nice and does a great job of making the space welcome for everyone.Reilly H.

55My dogs had a blast - it was safe, full of fun terrain to run, jump, and swim. The water had varying depths, but was not deep at all. There was also an area with table for a picnic, binoculars for bird watching, and an amazing atmosphere Tammy S.

55What a fantastic Sniffspot! We booked an hour and a half since we were driving from Seattle. Todd’s directions are very easy to follow and it was great to spend time in a fully fenced space. My friend’s dog enjoyed running full speed after her ball while my “doesn’t care about balls” dog wandered around sniffing the smells.
There are two fenced sections. The upper one is nice and shaded and the lower one has a wonderful creek running through it, with a table and umbrella to enjoy for the humans. Todd is very thoughtful with so many details! Dog water, human water, flowers on the table and binoculars for bird watching. It’s such a great way to spend time with your pups. He mows the grass in a way that creates interesting trials/spaces to explore for dogs like mine who can’t actually explore public trails in real life.
As the description says, there are horses next to the lower creek field so I kept my high prey dog on a long line just in case. I didn’t want him to run up and bark, even though there is very tall grass in between the fence and property. He ended up never seeing them and was able to have him off leash when we weren’t as close to the horse fence line.
Todd is also very kind! I got a flat tire on the way there, I quickly changed to my spare and while our dogs were enjoying play time he sent me the number to the local Les Schwab and a picture of my tire size so I didn’t have to walk back to the car if I wanted to call and make an appointment. It was so thoughtful!
We will definitely be back to visit!Skye G.

55It was nice meeting Todd today and his dad they were mowing the lawn, I appreciate how they keep the place so well kept. It was worth the drive from Seattle. We will definitely be back! My dogs had an amazing time sniffing and swimming in the creek. Nice area to play fetch! Even provide water for the pups and human. I appreciate the shaded area seating for the humans. If this place was close to me I would probably go 4 times a week. We arrived 10 minutes late and the host offered to let us stay the extra 10 minutes so we can have the full hour that was very nice of them. We will definitely be back! Thank you again for the eggs! tina n.

55This was a great location for water play. The creek/river runs through the property and our dog loved running through it and jumping over it. Great place on a hot day. Nice spot for humans to sit at a table with an umbrella. It was a nice spot for my mom to be able to join us as it's mostly flat with a spot to sit. The owner is very nice. He opened the gate for us to his property when we arrived. We didnt see a sniffspot sign so we weren't sure we had the right place at first. There is a garbage can for waste which is always a plus! It was fun to see our dog grinning as it is rare to find a sniffspot with water like this to play in. I highly recommend. If you, as the human, are looking for a hike, this does not have trails but plenty of room to run around with your dog.Wendy F.

55We had the best time. Our favorite Sniff Spot. The fences are short for our big GSDs but the great thing is there isn’t anything to see over the fence so even my girl who can jump 6 feet was happy to stay inside. We stayed away from the horse area but the chicken surprised one of my dogs and I had to use an emergency recall. We hope we didn’t scare them.
A glorious Sniff Spot, perfect in every way. Putting this on the rotation. Cynthia S.

Todd greeted us upon entering and was very friendly/welcoming. The park has lots of fun places for the dogs to zoom around and sniff, clean and well manicured area.
As others mentioned, there was a picnic table, water for humans and dogs and binoculars for bird watching!
Creek was clean and refreshing for my Weim and kiddo to play in.
We are looking forward to coming back again soon! I felt very secure here with my kiddo and dog.

55My dog LOVED the stream, there were still some spots deep enough to swim. She didn’t notice the horses until we were up a bit on the hill and we could see them over the fence/reeds. She barked a little as she’s never seen horses before but it was easy enough to call her away from them and keep her occupied with the water feature. The shaded areas with seating and water for dogs and humans were lovely. Cool spot!Elizabeth N.

FAQ about our Arlington dog beaches
Are dog beaches safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by park users so you can find the perfect safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog beach sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
No. We only allow one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits. So when you book a Sniffspot park you have the entire place to yourself and your dog-owning friends if you invite them. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings so you will not run into other park patrons when coming or leaving.
How much do Sniffspot dog beaches cost?
Dog beaches in the Arlington area range from $5.0 and $5.0. The least expensive dog beach is Heron's Creek in Maltby. The most expensive dog beach is Heron's Creek in Maltby. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
Can I have an event or party at a dog beach?
If you are planning an amazing dog beach party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
