Boarding FAQ

Can I bring my pet's own food, toys and bed?

Absolutely. Your pet's food, treats, favorite toy and bed or blanket are more than welcome. We also provide food and in-house bedding if you'd rather pack light.

My pet takes medication. Is there an extra charge?

No. A pet care manager gives any required medication at no charge. Just tell us about any special needs at check-in.

Can siblings share a suite?

Yes. Pets from the same family can share a suite at a reduced nightly rate for the second and any additional guests. See each suite above for pricing.

Can my dog join daycare play during an overnight stay?

Yes! Dogs who pass our Meet-N-Greet before their stay can join PlayPals group play for $12 a half day or $20 a full day.

Are you open on holidays?

Our staff cares for resort guests 365 days a year. The lobby is closed on New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas, and is open 8am to noon on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. Holiday suites book quickly, so reserve early.
