Before You Go

What it’s actually like with a dog

Dogs allowed is only the start. When we haven’t verified something, we say so instead of filling the gap.

Dog policy: Pet-friendly: welcomes up to two pets (reported up to about 65 lbs) for a pet fee (reported around $100/stay); dogs and cats allowed, with grassy relief areas and pet stations on site. Call ahead to confirm.
Patio / outdoor details: Not yet verified
Water: Not yet verified
Shade: Not yet verified
Best time to visit: Extended-stay option near Baylor and the riverwalk.

Notes: Verify pet fee and weight limit before booking.

Dog policies, hours, and availability can change. Verify directly before visiting. In a Central Texas summer, skip hot pavement in the middle of the afternoon even if the listing looks good on paper.
