The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Winston Salem

East Winston

Bailey Park is the perfect spot for a downtown pup to burn off some energy. Dogs who don’t do well off-leash should be kept on it, as the dog area of this neighborhood park is not entirely fenced. Finding a playmate is one way to keep your pup safely in the off-leash zone. You can tell you’re in the right spot when you find doggie bags on the fences! In addition to a small off leash area, Bailey Park has walking paths and plenty of interest in other areas of the park, making it a perfect spot to stop on a trip through downtown Winston Salem.

Admore / Hanes

Miller Park is a great spot to relax with your dog without leaving the city. Dogs love the looped walking trails, designed to give the illusion that you’re out in the woods, not deep in the city. Though the trails aren’t long, there are enough to choose from to give your leashed dog a real walk. Low energy dogs will appreciate that there are plenty of spaces to relax along the paths as well! If you crave a longer walk than Admore/Hanes can give you, head to Great Outdoor Provision Company. This dog-friendly outdoors company allows your dog to join you in picking out gear for your next great adventure.

Salem College

The Salem College neighborhood in Winston Salem is home to Washington Park, and within Washington Park is Washington Dog Park. This fully fenced dog park is one combined space, meaning that large and small dogs have to learn to get along. This park provides doggie bags and drinking fountains to care for your dog’s needs. It’s perfect for summer heat! When you’re tired of the off leash zone, or if your dog needs playmates of the same size, leash up and head into the rest of the public park. Walking trails and picnic areas make the whole park a great location to explore.

West Highlands

A night on the town isn’t a night on the town without a partner to help you howl at the moon. West Highlands in Winston Salem understands, and brings you two dog-friendly bars to choose from. Recreation Billiards is a pub and game space that focuses on three things: craft beers, pub games, and having a great time. Your dog is welcome to join you inside as long as they’re friendly with dogs and people. You can also choose the Old Winston Social Club, which allows you to bring in any food you’d like to share with friends and friendly dogs.

Cityview

Cityview has a great view of Salem Lake as well as the city itself. That’s where you’ll find Salem Lake Park, a large outdoor area with beautiful walking paths down to the water. The park is open year round, offering great views of a summer and winter lake. Dogs have to remain leashed in the park, but with so much to see, do, and smell, it’s still a great place to go. The walking paths are well-maintained, and very popular with locals and residents of other Winston Salem residents as. Your dog will have plenty of people watching to do, and may meet other dogs on the park’s paths!
