Taylor Hill Lodge has changed its pet policy! We now welcome guests with dogs, medium-sized and smaller (under 60 pounds), that are house trained. 

As the Lodge is a home with common spaces, it will be your responsibility to keep your dog under control and for Fido or Fifi to do their potty business outside, regardless of the temperature outside. Pet waste bags are available on site. The fee for including a dog in your stay is $75.00 per animal. You will need to sign a form ensuring that you understand the rules for your dogs’ stay at THL. If dogs are left unattended at Taylor Hill Lodge, they must be kenneled. 

Contact us with any dog-related needs or questions. We reserve the right to deny pet access to the Lodge with reasonable forewarning due to any reason.
