Not pet friendly more like pet weird they charge you a fee to bring your dog then want you to put down blankets on couch and bed if you allow your dogs on furniture?? The towels said for human body only and had rags for dogs 😞 it's also not in the back of this property it's right in the guys back yard so no privacy like we wanted and thought we paid for cleaned up after my dog still don't know why we had to pay a pet fee for a pet friendly spot that was not per friendly at all
