55Great spot! We spent time in the fenced yard and the unfenced portion, if your dogs have good recall you shouldn’t have any problems. Our pups loved it. We’ll be back soon! Ruth G.

55This place is great! There is one area that is really securely gated and one area that is gated about 3/4 through. My dog loved sniffing and exploring the yard but was tired after 15 minutes (he's a homebody). Would visit again!Natalie Z.

55Such a beautiful, private spot! Our dogs loved chasing a ball and sniffing. The cedar fence is great for our boys who are highly reactive to other dogs. Added bonus: we enjoy birding, and this place is getting certified by Audubon as a backyard bird habitat. We will definitely use this Sniffspot.Nancy P.

55This is such a great spot! The fencing is tall and super secure, I had no worries letting my dog explore on his own, which he usually doesn’t get the opportunity to do. Host is very friendly and the directions are very clear! I think we found a new favorite spot!Maren S.

55This was a great space for our two dogs to sniff about. We had plenty of room for our golden to play fetch while our pitty sniffed everything! We even had our toddler and she was entertained! Stephanie B.

55It’s basically all dirt/mud and no grass this time of year, but overall a very nice experience. There is a little gap between the gate and the fence that a small dog may be able to slip through if they’re trying to escape, my little dog kept eyeing it but never tried to slip through. Lucy S.

55Perfect little run-around spot for my dog-reactive American Bulldog. No other dogs behind any of the fences and a nice big open play space. Lovely covered area to hang in while it’s raining. It was muddy but that’s what the pig likes! Also hosts are very kind, accommodating and generous. 🌻🌻🌻Danielle M.

55We came out during the rain and had a blast, there's a lot of mud and my dog absolutely loved it. She never gets to play in yards off leash so she spent half the time exploring, the other half doing wild spin outs and zoomies with copious skidding around. There was a hose to spray her and her toys off and we toweled her off on the street. 10/10, probably will bring more towels next time if it's raining 😂Chantelle P.

FAQ about our Ilwaco small dog parks
Are small dog parks 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.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
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 small dog park 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.

Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types.
