My sister's dog died while in this organization's care. I would not leave my animal with such a negligent facility.

This business is a prime example of an oxymoron. A business meant to harness compassion, operates…read moreunethically behind closed doors. I was a member for over one year. I paid $40 a month and was happy with the environment. I must admit on a surface level, this is the best dog park in Austin. Amenities include a completely astroturfed playground, large flatscreen TVs, and fans for each of the guests. Caution, the glamour hides ugly business practices. Come to find out, the women employees get paid less than the male employees. The owner consistently disrespects his employees by yelling at them. I've seen employees cry because of the way he treats them. My experience: Many dog parents throw birthday celebrations for their pet. We're all responsible and we clean up after ourselves. They're peaceful celebrations. I had the decency to ask for permission to throw my dog a birthday party. They told me they were going to charge me a $500 fee even though I wasn't asking for anything beyond permission. I purchased gifts to give out for all attendees. my generosity was met with malice. Mid-celebration the owner texted me a long, unfriendly message telling me to FaceTime them. My membership was then suspended, but I guess they decided to revoke it without communication. They continued to charge me for the membership, even though I no longer had access. They chose to lose my business of over one year, which amounts to almost $500, over a dog's birthday party, generous of all guests. Choose wisely where you spend your dollars. A membership here supports unethical practices.

Okay this is our new go to spot. Normally the bar dog park type places are kinda stinky and super…read morecrowded but a friend recently recommended neighbors and we LOVED it! The place is a mix of turf and wood chips and they do a really great job keeping things clean. There's tons of space (3 separated big areas with a little open gate entrance) which makes it interesting for the pups to wander and feel like they can explore while contained. Not to mention - delicious coffee shop inside and loads of space and tons of tables for the pawrents to work or hang out with friends while the pups are running about. Staff was helpful and kind in directing us and giving us the run down, not a huge parking lot so keep that in mind but overall great experience and we're looking at the membership now!

BEWARE OF FRAUD. YOU CAN'T CANCEL…read more I have called Tailgate ATX several times to try to cancel my membership for the past 3 months, since mid-November. I have left messages (when your answering system worked, which was rarely). I even spoke to someone in December, who assured me they'd cancel my account. There is NOWHERE on your app to cancel a membership. You have continued to fraudulently charge my credit card FOR 3 MONTHS (December, January and now February). I have reported you to my bank and placed a stop payment on your company. I plan to go on social media today and WARN EVERYONE in reviews of what you do. This is THEFT.

Tailgate ATX "formally Mutts Cantina" is 1.6 acres of dog park. It includes dog washes, splash…read morepads, cabanas that you can rent out, full human food menu, dog menu and full bar! Luna and Hush LOVE it here! It can be a bit dusty as it is dirt and mulch so be ready to get dirty! The first time we went their handler was amazing! I am not sure what happened yesterday (Sunday the 11th) but I didn't see a handler. There was a few humans that could have been directed by a handler; ex: leashes on dogs in the park and kids with dog treats. Luckily nothing big came from it but usually these things are big no no's at parks because it can cause some fights. Otherwise, Tailgate is amazing! We drive from South Austin to bring our kids and they are so happy to run and play and have their day! I will totally be going back and bringing any friend who I can wrangle!

Pease Park is one of Austin's most beautiful parks. Full stop! It has been thoughtfully designed…read moreand enjoyable green space to frequent. Stretching along Shoal Creek, the park offers a mix of shaded walking and biking trails, open lawns, and beautifully restored natural areas. It is hard to believe when you are in the park that you are in the heart of central Austin. The park is especially family friendly, with a large playground, splash pad, treehouse style observation area, and plenty of seating. While we were at the park a school was hosting a picnic for its students. The northern portion of the park is even more quiet and scenic, with winding trails, limestone bluffs, and creek views. It's a great area for dog walks, leisurely strolls, picnics, workouts, or just relaxing under the trees. The park is well maintained and welcoming to all ages. This park is very special.

Such a gem of a park. Big, beautiful, and genuinely fun for all ages. The giant troll made from…read morenatural and recycled materials alone is worth the visit -- it's impressive and so unique. The stream nearby adds a peaceful touch, and the overall design of the park feels really intentional and creative. Kids will go crazy for the massive playground and all the interactive installations. The hanging net sphere is a must, you can lie inside and bounce around, and honestly the adults were just as into it as the little ones. There are also food vendors including ice cream, so you can easily spend a whole afternoon here. One of the most well-done parks I've been to. Highly recommend.
