The reason I gave it a 5 stars is for the other dogs and all the cool dog owners. We struck up some conversations with some of the owners and our dog LOOOVED playing with their dogs.

Important note: The wading pool is not for the fur babies. We were slightly misled, but regardless,…read morethe dogs had a great time West Austin Park (& Wading Pool) is a green space in the cute Clarksville neighborhood.There's a playground, wading pool, and open lawn for some frisbi throwing or whatever park activity you're into. As for the dog park area... it's a wonky and warped medium-sized lot that's fenced in. Water bowls are spread throughout, along with patio chairs that neighbors likely donated, and the majority of it is shaded. This dog park seems to be maintained by the community. There was a giant water jug that one kind gentleman kept refilling the bowls. Outside the bark park you'll find the water refill and rinsing station. My dog had a great time, and would probably give this spot a solid 5-stars.

No food is allowed on the actual playground. If you do not have a fur baby, and just want to hang for an hour or two, you can enjoy this interaction with the fur babies. It kind of like when you are an aunt and you spoil your nieces and nephews for a day and then drop off at home. You can get a day pass as low as $12 or you can purchase other packages. This is the type of place you can catch up with a friend or family member in a relaxed, comfortable environment. The Yard Bar grounds are quite large, so plenty of room for your fur babies to roam around.

While a great deal of the park is open to the public, some parts of the parks grounds are under construction specifically the pool area (according to a construction worker on site, construction has been ongoing for a 1.5 years).

Northwest park features playgrounds, pickle ball, tennis courts, picnic tables, and a scenic pond. The park appears children friendly except for the portion under construction. There's also a walking path around the park and Shoal Creek running along the edge. Overall, Northwest Park is a versatile, green space where recreation, nature, and community converge.

I thought I would update my review from three years prior because of the new changes taking place…read more The entire area surrounding the pool has been completely fenced off due to construction. The entire parking lot to the pool has also been closed down. You can still park on the side of the pool or all the way behind it. Considering how big this project is, I think it's safe to assume that it's going to be closed for the entire summer of 2025. The rest of the park is still available for use, although all the property next to the pool is fenced off. So you may wish to skip this as your pool choice this year and try again next year.
