55This was a great spot to walk around in. Our dog loved it. We kept him on a long lead because he is still learning to recall but we probably could have let him roam free. It is partially fenced but with so much land it really doesn't matter and feels very secure. Plus it is in a quiet, low traffic area. We also loved the opportunity to walk along the river. Our hosts were very nice and gave us good directions to the spot and where the borders of their land is. Thank you! Gwen G.

55It was my first time ever to Sauvie’s Island and dang was the drive gorgeous smd relaxing! The SniffSpot was easy to find with the address + key landmarks the Host told me to look for AND she also met me out by the driveway. A simple tour from the top of the hill and full explination of the area had me all ready and excited to explore. This SniffSpot is HUGE, the road is not a big deal at all, and our dogs loved the water! Melisa P.

55The water access is amazing but good recall is required. We spent so much time at the water, we didn’t have time to explore the other side of the property. Will definitely be back and bring more dogs! Taylor F.

55Wonderful dog spot! Farmland to walk around and waterfront to walk around. We didn't have time to explore it all as it was so vast. Bring a towel to wipe off mud from water side before going home. Swing was lovely. Owner very nice too.Melissa C.

55This was an absolutely lovely place to spend the afternoon. There were plenty of interesting nooks snd crannies along the riverbank for my inquisitive dog to explore. The owner met us at the gate, was understanding about my anxious dog, in every way gracious. Definitely recommend, and plan to return! Anne H.

55Otter and I had a wonderful 1st visit to this huge sniffspot on sauvie island. The owner met us and explained the 40 acre boundary and gave us useful information about the location. Very friendly and professional. It was mid day on a pretty warm spring day so we took advantage of the river access and did some training exercises in the shade by the picnic table after a nice romp in the field. (Be diligent about checking for ticks - it's that time of year. ) We will definitely be back to explore again in the future. Thanks Halle E.

55Just a fun place for my doggie to release his energy! It’s so big, and he roamed and ran tirelessly! And he ended up his play by taking a splash in the water. Jessica is such a great host and we will for sure return for more fun! Haze Y.

55This place is massive and gorgeous! We couldn’t even begin to sniff it all out in two hours. There’s water to splash in along the banks of Multnomah Channel, which is slow-moving and has a perfectly sloped (if muddy) shoreline for wading. Next to that is the grassy, tree-lined walking path that feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere. Then there’s acre after acre of expansive corn fields for running around! There is a country road in between the two large sections, not super busy but good recall is important here. We saw so much wildlife: bald eagles, jumping fish, a bounding rabbit and thousands of waterfowl. Host Jessica was friendly and generous. This will definitely be a place we visit again. Paige W.

FAQ about our Kelso 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.

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.

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.

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?
