Trailborn Highlands, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy
"Great Location! This property was tucked away from the main road and traffic in a wooded area, yet easily walkable to restaurants, shops, etc. Very peaceful Scandinavian and outdoorsy vibe, and super pet friendly!"

The Skyline Lodge
"Pet friendly but multiple dogs off leash and owners letting them roam which seemed odd leash weren’t required. Property is pretty, rooms were ok minus flea bites I brought back. Said they offered pastries for sale in the morning but they were not there during our stay. Highly recommend staying on ..."
