Luther Burbank Park is a 77-acre waterfront park at the north end of Mercer Island featuring an off-leash dog area with separate sections for large and small dogs. The park includes beach access to Lake Washington, paved pathways, grassy areas, and a sandy shore where dogs can swim and play.
Luther Burbank Park Off Leash Area is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
Dogs can enjoy water features here — great for cooling off on hot days. Bring a towel for the car ride home, because your pup will probably get soaked.
Walking trails are available, so you and your dog can enjoy a walk beyond just the off-leash area. Trails are a great option for dogs who enjoy sniffing and exploring at their own pace.
Best of all, Luther Burbank Park Off Leash Area is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A towel
Your dog will likely get wet at the water features. Save your car seats with a quick dry-off.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
Note: The area is not fully fenced in all sections. Dogs are allowed off-leash in the designated off-leash dog area. Dogs and other pets are not allowed at public swimming areas from May 1 to September 30. Voice/signal control trained dogs are allowed off-leash in Upper Luther Burbank Park and other designated voice control areas.
