Visiting With Your Dog

Located on Mud Bay Road NW, this off-leash park is an absolute gem for Olympia dog owners looking to give their pups a real workout. When you arrive, expect a well-maintained space with plenty of room for dogs to roam freely and socialize. The park features both open areas perfect for fetch and running, plus scenic trails that wind through the property—ideal if your dog prefers a more adventurous outing with sniffing opportunities.

Parking is convenient and usually plentiful, especially on weekday mornings, which tends to be the sweet spot for visits. If you prefer smaller crowds, aim for early morning or midweek afternoons rather than busy weekends. Bring plenty of water for your dog, especially during warmer months, along with waste bags and any favorite toys. It's smart to have a secure collar and leash handy for the parking lot, even though the off-leash area itself is well-fenced.

The beauty of this location is how easily it fits into a larger dog-friendly outing. After your pup has burned off energy on the trails, you can head over to nearby Hobbit House of Coffee for a caffeine boost while your exhausted dog naps in the car. Or if you're planning an afternoon adventure, grab lunch and drinks at Puget City Brewing—they're just a short drive away and welcome dogs on their outdoor patio, making for the perfect post-park relaxation spot.

The park's off-leash setup really sets it apart, allowing you to watch your dog's personality shine as they interact with other dogs and explore naturally. The trails add excellent variety, so you're not just working with a flat, open field. Most visitors rave about the maintenance and safety standards, which definitely shows in the consistent 4.5-star rating. Whether your dog is a social butterfly or prefers independent exploration, McLane offers enough space and features to keep every pup content.
