Rhodes Street Reserve is a dog-friendly park in Hillsdale. You'll find shaded areas nearby, while Matraville Hotel is around 800 metres away for an easy post-walk drink.

Dog rules

Dogs are permitted on-leash under Bayside Council’s dog policy. An off-leash area is planned here but is not yet open — Council’s current off-leash map lists Rhodes Street Reserve as coming soon. Dogs must be on a lead unless they are inside a designated off-leash area, and must stay at least 10 metres away from playgrounds and play equipment.
