House broken dogs continue to be welcome in all cottages except Brownie, Pioneer, Wandawood Hall, Oak Leaf and Pilgrim House.

If your dog does not vacation well or has anxiety being in a new environment, please leave him at home. If leaving your dog alone leads to inappropriate behavior (chewing or scratching); then please keep him crated when you are gone. If your dog barks when left alone, crated or otherwise, you will need to make other arrangements for him. Please keep your dog off the beds and furniture. Also, please clean up after your dog.

Two dogs maximum per dog friendly cottage. An additional fee of $90 per dog per week ($18/day), will be added to your bill. Should your dog cause damage to the property, you will be billed.

Boat Policy:

You may tie your boat up to the dock during the day while you are on the premises, weather permitting. At night you must moor your boat to prevent boat and dock damage should the wind pick up. We are not liable for any damage to your boat, whether you are using our mooring buoy system, or otherwise.

We do not allow jet skis at Wandawood.
