55What a hidden gem this is! This was our first visit to A Walk in the Woods and we truly enjoyed the experience. There are all kinds of paths through some lovely woods. We first walked a path around the perimeter. I could see some fencing on the edges of the property but don't know if it surrounds the property. After we did the first loop, we then went an explored all kinds of side trails. There were lots of fun trinkets and signs tucked in a long the way which made it interesting. It was very secluded - other than meeting a neighbor (who was fun to talk to - says he's lived there since 1946!) at the front gate we didn't see or hear anyone once we drove down the road to the shack where you can park. All the main trails were dry. Some of the inner trails had some mud puddles which can be easily skirted. There is a creek near where you park and some small ponds scattered throughout. Kai loves dipping in the water so bring a towel if your pup likes to explore in the water. We truly enjoyed our visit and plan to visit again. It will be fun to see these lovely woods in all the different seasons! The host was very responsive to a message I sent before our visit. This is a great place for a reactive dog due to the seclusion. June M.

55Grace was the nicest most welcoming host. She pointed us in the right direction and left us to enjoy the time.
The land is beautiful. A nice hill to get a little workout and lots of open spaces to run when you get up top. Plenty of benches and tables to rest and enjoy the peace.
There were goats and a horse safely away in their shelter and easily avoided as they are before the start of the area you will be using. They are adorable and so patient as Niko saw them and barked. Didn’t see or hear any people or other animals at all-
There’s we a super pretty water area when you first start the trail that is perfect for a little splashing around.
Basically- it’s like your own private hike in the woods for a few great hours. Thank you Grace! Danielle W.

55We had a wonderful time with our dogs at Grace’s wooded slice of paradise. There was a ton of space for our dogs to run and we appreciated the varied terrain. There are trails through the property and the whole are is fenced in nicely. One of our dogs escaped under the entry gate so perhaps a small gate extension could be a suggested improvement but the gate just led to a fenced backyard so it was no trouble that the dog went under the gate once. Loved the creek for romping and water play. Thanks for allowing us to play and run!Elizabeth R.

55Oh. My. Gosh. This is THEEEE most incredible find. Grace is the sweetest human ever (even as my hounds were barking and screaming at her from the car). Her property is absolutely stunning. Couldn't believe this was actually completely fenced in. The dogs ran for about 1.5hrs until one chased a heron into the marsh and submerged himself and decided he was ready to go home at that point. It was just spectacular, I felt like we truly were hiking out in the woods all by ourselves without having to worry about another hiker sneaking around the corner. The dogs ran and ran and are now passed out at home. We cannot wait to book our next trip to this incredible gem of a spot. Thank you for sharing your space, Grace. We loved it.Jillian M.

55We were looking for a controlled environment to test off leash recall with our 6 month chocolate lab. This place was awesome! Plenty of room to roam, all secure and fenced in. Porter had a great time (and did great with recall!!). Driveway and parking were clearly marked. Grace was there to meet us for our first visit and show us out to the property. We will definitely come back!Karli L.

55Another wonderful day at this beautiful location. Something very helpful about this sniffspot is that there is an outhouse, which allows for drinking your morning coffee and then driving an hour to get there. We have been coming often to decompress and give our dog the best time.Sol R.

55We absolutely LOVED our experience here today! We stayed at the top of the hill to avoid any interest in visiting the pond or other animals on the property, but that didn’t change the amount of fun to be had at all! Left with one tired pup and that is definitely the ultimate goal :) Andrea L.

55We came back for our second visit today and found new trails on the property to walk that we didn't find the last time. I almost don't want to say how good this place is because we don't want to share!! Lol. The dogs had a blast, we will be back!Karli L.

55Another wonderful day at our favorite sniff spot. Grace makes us feel so welcomed. On cold rainy days she makes sure we have shelter from the wet and cold. I find it relaxing to get away to this beautiful property and watch my dog run and explore to her heart’s content.Sol R.

55Grace's place is what Sniffspot is all about--what a wonderful way to get our trio of city dogs, including the reactive one who usually can't be off-leash outside of our yard, some free-roaming exploring, fresh country air, and playtime together in the woods on this beautiful property. And Grace was such a thoughtful and accommodating host who made our first Sniffspot experience a great one--nothing more satisfying than 3 tired and happy dogs sleeping in the car all the way home. We can't wait to come back!Phoenix H.

55Lovely spot with tons of room for exploring! If you’re looking to wear out your pup with a ball, this is the place, there’s quite a few spots to sit and throw with a chucka.
Super easy to find and park thanks to Grace’s signs. She’s a perfect host.
We had a great time walking through the trees. Next time we’ll bring a picnic to enjoy by the creek. Erin T.

55The mini forest is awesome! It was easy to find this Sniffspot and I appreciated the welcoming signage-nice to know as a first timer that I am on the right property. The land itself is lovely-plenty of room for the dogs to run and their human to hike around. There is even a little creek, which my water crazy golden retriever loved. We will definitely return to this spot.Robin S.

FAQ about our Eastsound 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 Eastsound?
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?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training 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.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
