55The dogs and I had a of fun! It was nice to walk around the different short trails, but it also had flatter spots to just hang out. I brought a picnic blanket and got to chill while the dogs sniffed around. We will be back!Fernanda J.

55Great land and property. It was really fun to hike off leash with our reactive dog who can’t go on trails easily. We usually stick to wide open areas so she can see what is around her. I would caution others to keep their dogs on leash until they are past the water feature, because the fist part of the trail is along the road. Really great adventure for us and the pups.Angela R.

55Very cool property, plenty of space for the doggies to roam. Anything off the beaten path was pretty overgrown with much inaccessible due to blackberry brambles. But I've given lesser properties 5 stars, we'll be back to try the hike someday.S V.

55Big area to explore! A little steep, wear appropriate shoes. Be prepared for a few mosquitoes. Our pup loves it, lots of trails, and clean water/treats provided for when we finished. Great spot. Tayler H.

55This spot is amazing! We booked 1.5 hours, but ended up leaving a little early because my dog exhausted herself having zoomies 😂
You enter through a wooded area, with gorgeous shady trails - once you emerge into the power line clearing, there’s so much space to explore. We will definitely be back soon to do the hike!Anna D.

55Second time coming to this location! You can tell there’s ongoing progress with the trails they are making as they continue to clear out paths. It’s a great spot to have your dogs run free for an hour☺️Kymberly E.

55This spot is great! My dog and I easily spent 1.5 hours there today, and had an amazing time exploring. The trails are gorgeous and so well maintained! We went on a sunny day, but the trails are shaded, so it’s a perfect place to bring dogs for some fun off leash time if they don’t do so well in the heat.Anna D.

55Continue to love this sniff spot! Our pups and 3yo had a blast wondering around getting some much needed energy out! Also… lost a couple balls in the bushes so if your pup finds them, enjoy! Our pups love to chase after them, but are terrible on remembering to bring them back! Drew D.

55We have been looking for a place to hike with our dog without the distractions. Some areas were steep and muddy. We made sure to bring plenty of water on this warm day. This was wonderful! Beautiful views! Mala B.

55This is a great SniffSpot. We stopped here to give our puppy a break while driving from Seattle to Anacortes Ferry Terminal. It worked out great, easy access 5 minutes off I5 and plenty of room to run. I’d highly recommend it for those traveling to the San Juan Islands with pups in tow. Rebecca M.

55It was as advertised! We booked on a whim 10 minutes before we had to take off for the spot, so I hadn’t read directions closely and there was no cell service so I couldn’t double check my app once we arrived. 😊 But it was fairly obvious where to park & saw the treat & bag bucket and water dish! My dogs had a great time and ran all over sniffing and playing! Plenty of shade even on a warm day! Trails are well maintained! Teresa J.

55This is an awesome spot! Nice to have an option for a longer sniff spot. Great for both humans and pups alike. The creek is a great place to cool off, great use of the land. 🙏Riley P.

55My dog had so much fun getting muddy and then tromping through the woods. The paths are well cleared and maintained. This spot feels incredibly private; I really enjoyed that. We also crossed paths with a bunny (luckily my boy has great recall) - if you have a dog with high prey drive definitely watch out for the wildlife!Nicole Y.

55This is our favorite sniffspot! Plenty of variety of space for my pup to sniff and explore along the trail, and the stream is a nice area to cool down and take a break at. Sophia B.

55Large open space with some serious good sniffs. Open trail meander through the area. Natural vegetation providing border. Warm days you are able to feel the heat, so bring water on trail. Water bowl and trash at the beginning of trail ( in shelter area). There are some mild inclines/declines. One area has small pond like area. Be aware if you have swamp divers! 😆april W.

FAQ About Mount Vernon Dog Parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?

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.
