55This was our first time to this spot and we had an amazing day.
Robin is such a kind and welcoming host and her communication was exceptional.
She showed us to the actual field where we started our visit and gave us directions on how to reach the river. You can walk the whole way if you want or drive part way if you have a car that can handle a bit of a rough road.
After a bit of trial and error and some adventures through the woods- we found the river! Wear long pants and don’t expect perfectly manicured trail— it’s a farm and woods after all. Bring your phone in case you need to make sure you are going the right way- we used Google Maps satellite view.
It was so peaceful and beautiful once we got to the river. Niko just loved playing in the water and we loved watching him so happy. There were some people floating around the other side of the river but it was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in the middle of summer. Kinda prime time. :)
A great time was had by all- thanks so much for hosting us Andrea! Danielle W.

55AMAZING!!! Unbelievable beautiful. Can’t wait to come back. Note: The calendar unfortunately let’s you book 1 hour slots but that is not enough time to get down to water and back. Just an FYI:) Renée M.

55I visit this spot regularly because I love it and my dog loves it. So much space and access to the river, which is incredibly rare. But even if you don't make it to the river, it's still an amazing spot to walk knowing that you aren't going to run into anyone else. It's such a wonderful reprieve from walking in my neighborhood. Definitely worth the drive. Sang K.

55Great spot! My only suggestion if you are going is to wear long pants, especially if wandering through the woods. The blackberry vines will tear up your legs if you don’t. But my dogs loved it and we will be back!Corey T.

55Another great visit! This time the fields have been planted with crops (corn) so we had to be mindful of keeping Porter closer to us, which was no problem The trail from the fields to the river are a little more overgrown than last time so we recommend wearing long sleeves and trousers if you want to avoid minor scratches from blackberry bushes etc. The river was wonderful, as always, and we enjoyed a picnic by the water. Next time we come to visit we’ll book for longer! Imee T.

55We had a great visit to PaJo Ranch - this is a special spot with a lot of space and river access. This was our second visit and this time we drove out around the field part way to allow time to find the path to the river. Next time we will probably walk the whole way. The 2 hour minimum is a must and one might consider booking for longer depending on how much lingering at the river you may want to do. This time the river was a bit chilly for our dog so we didn't stay there more than about half an hour.
This is a fantastic Sniffspot and we will not hesitate to return soon!Susan H.

55Robin was a great host, responded very quickly to our emails and gave us detailed instructions on how to get there and where to go. The property is great with nobody around. There was a lot of growth on the trails to the river but we persevered and it was worth it. We will be back for sure!Gure G.

55We loooved the ranch and have already booked another visit! Definitely need that 2 hrs minimum as there is lots to explore and you don’t want to feel rushed. It was a beautiful setting and the hostess really met us with the mostess. In addition to orienting us to the property, she also took the time to meet and greet my timid pup, who is working on introductions to strangers and really felt relaxed meeting her and getting to romp and sniff sniff sniff in this fun new place!Sara S.

Frequently asked questions about Bothell dog beaches
Where can I find dog beaches in Bothell?
Bothell has 7 private dog beaches available through Sniffspot, offering swimming and beach activities in completely private settings. These locations range from compact spaces to properties spanning 25+ acres. Whether you need a space for your reactive dog, puppy socialization, senior dog gentle exercise, or high-energy play, Bothell dog beaches provide safe, private environments. Filter for "fewer dogs seen/heard," specific amenities, or fencing types to find your perfect match.
How many dog beaches are in Bothell?
Bothell offers 7 dog beaches ranging from compact spaces to properties spanning acres. You'll find options such as dog water park, dog swimming pool, dog field, and more. Each Bothell dog beach listing shows detailed photos, amenities, fencing specs, and reviews from local dog owners.
Are Bothell dog beaches good for all dog types?
Yes! Bothell dog beaches work for every dog: puppies learning socialization, senior dogs needing gentle exercise, small dogs who feel safer without large breeds, high-energy dogs requiring space, and reactive or anxious dogs needing privacy. The completely private bookings mean each dog gets the environment they need. Browse Bothell's 7 options to find spaces matching your dog's specific temperament and needs.
Will I encounter other dogs at Bothell dog beaches?
Not a chance. Bothell dog beaches operate on a strict one-booking-at-a-time system, so the space is entirely yours during your reserved slot. Host dogs are kept away, and there's a mandatory 30-minute buffer between bookings—meaning you won't cross paths with the previous or next guest. For Bothell owners with reactive dogs, puppies, or any dog needing privacy, this makes all the difference in providing safe, stress-free exercise.
Are Bothell dog beaches safe for fearful or anxious dogs?
Yes! Bothell dog beaches provide controlled, predictable environments without the chaos of public dog parks. Since bookings are completely private with 30-minute buffers, anxious dogs can explore a waterfront area where dogs can swim, play in sand, and enjoy beach activities off-leash without overwhelming encounters. Many Bothell dog owners specifically choose dog beaches for fearful dogs who need gentle, stress-free exercise environments.
Can puppies use Bothell dog beaches?
Absolutely! Bothell dog beaches are excellent for puppy socialization because they're private and controlled. Puppies can explore a waterfront area where dogs can swim, play in sand, and enjoy beach activities off-leash, practice recall, and build confidence without the overwhelming chaos that can create fear or reactivity in young dogs. Just ensure your puppy has age-appropriate vaccinations before visiting.
How do I choose the best dog beach in Bothell?
Start by filtering Bothell's 7 dog beaches for your specific needs: secure fencing for escape artists, "fewer dogs seen/heard" for reactive dogs, flat terrain for seniors, appropriate sizing for small dogs, or specific amenities for training. Look for "Top Spots" like Bothell's Ashley's 25 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Duvall with excellent reviews.Read feedback from other Bothell owners with similar dog types to find your perfect match.
What are Bothell's dog beach requirements?
All dogs must have basic vaccinations or titers. Each Bothell host may have additional rules on their listing. Most dog beaches welcome all breeds, sizes, and temperament levels, including reactive dogs who can't safely visit public dog parks. Adult supervision is required at all times.
