Amenities
Norwood Estate Dog Park on E. Riverside reviews
What visitors consistently sayReviewers call it one of the few fully fenced dog parks in Austin, with separate small and large dog sections that make it a safe pick for shy pups warming up. Regulars highlight friendly people, summer sprinklers and pop-up pools brought by neighbors, and even a first-Friday DJ set.
A genuinely tight community where people come for the dogs and stay for each other. Regulars are welcoming to newcomers, share water toys in the Texas heat, and turn up for the occasional first-Friday DJ night.

Before you go
Street parking only; arrive early on weekends. The small dog area is well-maintained and good for shy dogs working on socialization.
