55We loved it. Wanted to let the dog run a bunch before we took the ferry back home after a week away and this sniff spot was dreamy. Lovely private beach and clean big yard with toys and treats. Thank you Bryony W.

55The place is absolutely gorgeous. We had an amazing time celebrating our girl’s 5th birthday. The host even left us some treats and party hats and toys to use! Will definitely go back! Justine H.

55SO AMAZING for my pup, who doesn’t always like other dogs, to swim and run around. No one else was at the beach and it was emotional for me to see Winnie running free on the shore and in the ocean since she doesn’t get to be off leash that often since we live in the city. 11/10 would go again!Rex S.

55Chester had a delightful time running loose in the yard! He sampled many of the toys & balls available and even chose a couple to play with. The treats were very much appreciated and the location and view at the yard will be hard to beat!Jim C.

55Wonderful spot for my LGD. The lawn is sloped down towards the waterside and is well fenced. The stairs down to the beach are tricky for an old lady and her massive Caucasian Shepard but certainly do-able. The beach was so much fun for my big fella. Make sure you go when the tide is out enough, as it can get pretty close to the cliffs on a high tide. Thanks! We'll be back for sure!GinnyB X.

55Absolutely perfect. We have three dogs and they all had a blast...both in the yard and on the beach. Sean is very gracious and communicative. We will definitely be back. Dave B.

55Such a great spot!! Fully fenced and down the stairs to the back is a fantastic little beach! Be careful, the stairs down to the beach get really steep and they might not be the best for senior dogs or dogs with mobility issues. Emily J.

55This is a nice yard with a beautiful view. Our puppy loved running around. We went down to the water. The stairs are kinda steep but manageable. The owner was very nice and quick to respond. It was a little confusing at first when we got there. Didn’t have a sniff spot sign, so we were not sure if we were walking into someone else’s yard. Kelly R.

55Wonderful spot, lots to sniff. Perfect access to beach, but worth being mindful if you struggle with stairs but perfect for most people! Noni had a blast and Milo hopped around carefree! Easy access and view was spectacular. Angela H.

55Just a fantastic place all around. Fun for dogs and relaxing for mom. Tide was too high for swimming, but we went down and jumped in anyway.Clauda P.

55Another great visit. Max knows the turn into the driveway now and gets excited for his romp and roam time. So many toys to choose from! He was worn out by the end of our time today, started falling asleep standing up, and passed out as soon as we got home. Thanks, Sean!Bev S.

55Another great visit at Sean's. We stayed longer than last time, and Max left happy and yawning. He was completely worn out from his off-leash playtime. We'll be back!Bev S.

FAQ About Port Ludlow 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.
