"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
While we're firm believers that pups should have a place in daily life, many hotels don't allow for furry, four-legged friends to come on vacation. With that in mind, we set out to find the best dog-friendly hotels across America. Whether you're looking to book a last-minute getaway or are planning ahead for fall and winter adventures, ahead you'll find plenty of beautiful hotels, inns, and resorts to explore with your dog(s).
Just keep in mind: Some hotels have pet weight limits, not to mention non-refundable pet fees. To help make sorting through the dozens of destinations a bit easier, we clearly outlined both of these parameters, plus the average room rate. Happy searching!
