The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in West Islip

Hunter-Deer Park

Parkway Lawns Park, a small plot of land often referred to as 'The Bar-X,' was formerly a horse riding stable and dude ranch by the same name. Fido will enjoy a snifftastic walk through the wide-open spaces of this now public park. A chance game of fetch or Frisbee is pawsome good fun! Your pup will love a leashed stroll around the park tree line where he’ll yelp with delight as he catches sight of a squirrel scampering up a tree trunk. Check out the dogtastic lake in the park, a great place for your pup to get a drink or take a quick dip on a hot summer's day.

Bayview

The West Islip Town Beach is a little cove behind the Good Samaritan Hospital known only by locals. You and your pup will enjoy the small beach that provides a quiet place to enjoy a leashed walk along the water. Fido will enjoy exploring at water’s edge and following dogtastic adventures among the flotsam and jetsam on shore. Bring along a picnic and enjoy the wooden chairs and picnic tables in both the covered area and out in the sunshine. Sometimes an ice cream truck parks nearby for a special afternoon treat. The West Islip Marina is nearby, and offers a beautiful view of the Great South Bay.

Hyman/ Howells

Just three miles from West Islip in Bayshore, you will find the Anthony Casamento Park. Grab your leash and your walking shoes, and go for a little exercise and fresh air where the open space is plentiful for some playtime and fetching. If your pup likes to catch, he’ll enjoy you bouncing some tennis balls off the outdoor handball walls. The wide-open space makes it easy to get in a leashed walk on the grassy area, but there’s also trees encircling the park. Your pooch will enjoy a sniff-tastic route near the tree line as he explores sounds of the small wildlife living there. The park is also well lit at night, making it a good option for those later walkers.
