55This Sniffspot worked very well for my reactive, noise-phobic border collie. The spot is extremely quiet, apart from some occasional airplane noise overhead, and we could hear only distant voices and saw no people. I often go to larger Sniffspots, but this one was big enough and interesting enough to keep my dog entertained for nearly an hour. He got a great workout running up and down the hills and through the network of trails, and I was never concerned about him escaping the property. What makes the Sniffspot even better is the kind and attentive host. We will definitely be visiting again!Sara E.

55Beautiful and peaceful ravine property. We enjoyed the trails and lots of tree rounds for parkour. All sizes of dogs will enjoy running and playing here. It's a great mix of wild and slightly tamed areas. Walking up and down the trails was excellent exercise. We'll be back. Kristen D.

55My dog had a ridiculous amount of fun here. He enjoyed exploring the trails and zooming around them. And there are STICKS. (Emphasis is Blaze’s 😅) There water faucets throughout the spot and a water bowl to use. We’ll be back, thanks for sharing your beautiful space!Holly R.

55This is a lovely set of switchbacks that are well maintained and lead down to a ravine with what sounded like a small creek. It was rainy but had it been better weather there are many places with tables and chairs where you might enjoy the old trees and listen to the water gurgling. Fencing along the sides but not enough fencing for my dog so I kept him on leash during our visit. Andrea J.

55Nice trails, dogs loved running on the switchbacks and got nice and tired. Did make it harder to keep a visual on the dogs, but the spot was fenced securely enough for my dogs. Host provided clear instructions so the place was easy to find.Susan G.

55This was our first time doing a Sniffspot and it was great! Was easy enough for us to find and the directions were detailed and straightforward. The trails are nice and our dogs had a blast! There are clean water bowls available too although we happened to bring our own water. We will be back for sure! Star P.

55To say Virgil had a blast is an understatement! There are tons of things to sniff on the trails and switchbacks. Lots of sticks to pick up along the way. It has a really nice out-on-the-trails feel with lots of chairs and places to sit.
A plus: Virgil and I made it down to the creek!! The soil down to the creek was soft on a rainy day and it’s a step decline so be mindful of that if you want to try to get to it. The owners will be creating a proper path to the creek in the future! Athena J.

55This is such a serene place to wander and my pup had a blast sprinting up and down the trails! We made it down to the creek no problem, just some muddy paws. Even though it’s only partially fenced, it felt plenty secure with the natural barriers. Sarah L.

55My dogs loved it. One of my dog loves to run through woods and fly over stumps and logs. This was perfect for him. The trails were clear and nice to walk on for me. The owner warned me about the creek path being muddy but my psycho water dogs ran down there immediately 😂 we left with muddy paws but were warned. This spot will be perfect in the summer with the creek when it’s a little dryer. Offered a place to throw poo bags which I appreciated and the water bowls left out was a huge bonus.Lauren N.

55I highly recommend Linda’s place! We love it. The dogs went crazy running and exploring. It’s an amazing place for dogs living in small spaces and dogs that don’t do well at dog parks. It makes me happy to see them playing around and connecting with nature.Kaue O.

55This is such a lovely spot! Easy to find and very private. The trails are good exercise for humans and dogs alike. My pup loves water and jumped right into the creek. She's a very happy, muddy, tired girl! We will definitely come back 🐶Lindsay F.

55Beautiful spot to decompress for dogs and their humans. I was in awe of how breathtaking the place was and the smell of the trees was unmatched. It was raining hard the day we went so we were 15 mins late, host graciously let us stay 15 mins longer. Thank you for sharing your gem of a backyard!Paige K.

55We all loved our experience at Wonderlane! We are proponents and followers of the leash law so it is nice find places where our dogs can be off-leash and safe from the drama, since our dogs are reactive. Our young dog is full of energy and enjoyed being able to let loose, run free, and explore the well-maintained trails. Our senior girl was zipping along and had lots of pep in her step, enjoying the scents and the freedom. The birds were chatting away and it was both serene and invigorating to be in nature. The earth beneath us was gentle on our joints and also offered sturdy support. We were a bit skeptical since the property is listed as partially fenced, but it did NOT pose a problem. It was nice to practice recall commands and our pups checked in often and didn’t stray too far away. Linda is a lovely and kind host. You can tell how much love and care she poured into making this a doggy haven. She asked permission to take our photos and we were happy to oblige. She even snuck us some human treats. Will definitely return. X X.

FAQ about our Burien dog water parks
Are dog water 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. 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Burien?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water park at the same time as me?
