About the Park
Off-leash time with a lake nearby is the appeal at Woodlawn Lake Dog Park, set within one of San Antonio's oldest public parks on the near west side in the 78201 zip code. The dog park itself is free to use, like the rest of Woodlawn Lake Park. Fencing and surface details aren't listed in our records, so size up the enclosure before letting a flight-prone dog loose. Before or after off-leash time, the walking loop around the lake is a popular spot for a leashed cooldown stroll. Summers here run hot and humid, so mornings are the safer window from June through September. Bring water for your dog, as on-site fountains aren't confirmed.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Woodlawn Lake Dog Park is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Woodlawn Lake Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.

Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
