Fenders Alley

Great lunch spot

Visiting friends in nearby Lula we came to Cornelia looking for lunch, BringFido led us here. The patio was empty at 11:25am but they opened a little early for us! Bar window open, dog bowl brought to table, very friendly servers. I was disappointed they ran out of German Brats but the Friday special: meatloaf, was good with baked mac & cheese. Breakfast is served all day, so a side of bacon for my dog Alexa. Plenty of comfortable seating, big screen TV, we enjoyed our visit to Fender's.

Good Location

The motel is near the highway but out of the way, quiet and comfortable. We were happy with our stay here.

Location close to the highway

A good location away from the road but easy to reach. A big field across the parking lot for Alexa to explore. We had a ground floor room close to the rear entrance making it a short walk from the car into the room.

Friendly Welcome

The room was very nice with a kitchen and sitting area, the check-in was easy and friendly. Quiet location off the highway. We did not get to meet the "house dog" which was rescued on the property and has the run of the place.

Friendly staff

We were very welcome at La Quinta, ground floor room close to the entrance. They offered me a dog ookie at check-in. Nice grassy area near the main door, plenty of close parking out front. Close to lots of food and shops


Motel 6 Junction TX Llano River

New location, nice rooms

Motel 6 has moved across the highway from where we had stayed in the past, all ground room floors, grass nearby. Our room was odd we had to go up a few steps because the parking lot slopes down but we (including Alexa) handled it. We had dinner at Lum's BBQ on the dog-friendly patio (about a mile south). We also went to the riverfront park lots of open area there (another mile or two south).

Excellent location and amenities

We ended up leaving Alexa with a sitter because we were going to be "out" for 5 or 6 hours, but this was a wonderful apartment, with laundry, kitchen, big TV. Alexa would have enjoyed the park across the street with grass area. Gated reserved parking included. We had the 2-BR with 2 full bathrooms. On the ground floor a market with groceries and a deli with cooked breakfasts. Close to the Capitol, historic district, and Raisin' Cane's convention center. Next time I would bring Alexa here, and have an in-house sitter for the evening.

Good location, friendly staff

Very welcoming hotel and clean rooms the only downside was no close area to walk dogs. About 2 blocks east is Lincoln School Park a great place. A former school it’s now a public park.


Rocky Creek Inn

March 11, 2025

Friendly service

The location outside of town means lots of open area for roaming. Check-in was at the night window but the friendly lady offered recommendations for dinner. The Amoco station across the field was one, with a 24 hour cafe; we got a great biscuit sandwich there for breakfast.

Popular with dogs!

There were plenty of dogs staying here, maybe like us they were out of their homes due to power loss after the hurricane passed. We booked the room on short notice (5:30pm, it's only 11 miles from home) and got a mini-suite for two nights. Plenty of grass area next to the hotel, with poop disposal station; also a large church behind the hotel for walks. Quiet room, comfortable, nice breakfast included, swimming pool and outdoor seating. We enjoyed our stay.


Burger Station
Burger Station in Hernando, FL
September 30, 2024

Great place for burgers

Comfortable front patio with antique decor of old time gas station, view of highway and lake across the road. Friendly staff bring your food out to you and also bring water bowls for the dogs. There were several dogs there for a Saturday lunch.


Cow Dog

May 6, 2024

Dogs eat Free!

My favorite food truck in Alpine, a variety of choices on the menu, on Holland Avenue, with a covered outdoor seating area. I had German (sauerkraut, bacon, and brown mustard). I didn't know until I mentioned to the owner my dog was waiting in my truck, she yelled "fire up a dog-dog", she said Dogs Eat Free st Cow Dog. They get a Lil' Dog wrapped in foil. Make sure you ask for a Dog-Dog.

Note they have moved across the street but I heard they'll be moving back and expanding.

Good diner favorite of locals

My favorite is chicken fried steak, whenever I visit the Big Bend area I try to eat at Magoo’s. They are also open for breakfast. Servers and guests are all friendly, especially if your dog is with you! Busy place the parking lot is usually full but there is on street parking too.

Great barbecue and friendly folks

Comfortable outside seating facing US 90, watch the cars, motorcycles (and trains) go by while enjoying great barbecue. Some seating is covered or shaded. Cafeteria style service, safe to tie your dog outside while ordering. They brought a big bowl of water out for my dog. Food choices include sandwiches and plates, and it's a micro brewery.

Good location in town

This old-style motel is on the Main Street of town near local shops and restaurants. There’s a small grass area at the motel, but treat your dog and drive about a mile south to City Park. Lum’s BBQ is nearby, they have a dog friendly patio. Pickup the local map at the front desk to find your way around Junction.

Tough location but nice

It was clean and quiet, indoor entrance with elevator which my dog used to be nervous about, but she's better with it now. This place is tough to find and to get into in the afternoon, that northbound traffic is endless. Otherwise a nice stay. Crestview Dog Park is a few miles away on US 90. I recommend it.

First stay with Fido

I've stayed here before alone, but did not know they are pet friendly. Front desk has treats for puppy, toothbrush for Mommy (she lost hers). Love's truck stop across the road, Subway, and McDonald's. Very nice breakfast included (but sorry pets not allowed at break room).

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Temple

May 8, 2023

Convenient location

Nice spot among many restaurants. Across the street is a huge field for outside time; I think it’s parking for the huge high school football stadium a block away. A bit of noise from the nearby highway, and occasional train horn from the big rail yard a few blocks away. If you’re a light sleeper it might bother you, but I had no problem sleeping.

Beautiful Room

The housekeeper outdid herself there were figures made from the towels in the bathroom and on the bed. The room was very nice, with office chair and table, large TV, modern lighting and power ports. The pool was right outside my door. I found a medical center less than a mile north for outside time, lots of grass and even ducks, like a park.

Dogs are #1

What a great place for a great rate, the rooms were formerly 1 and 2 bedroom apartments, fully furnished and kitchen fully equipped. Rooms open onto a courtyard which is gated from outsiders, seating areas, small pool. Huge grass area on west side of building for dogs to exercise their needs. Lots of restaurants and shopping in the area. Just 2 blocks north of Business SR 6. Wine and snacks at evening welcome hour, breakfast nook in the morning.

Relaxing lunch with good service

Comfortable huge outdoor pavilion with cooling fans, plenty of tables as well as bar stools available. Big dog bowl of water to help my dog keep her cool. Small menu but a good choice of starters, salads, and "handhelds". The only other "pet" there was a big black duck that wandered in from the nearby pond!

Very well appointed modern hotel

A very nice place, the room was excellent, I didn’t visit the bar and restaurant though it had a rustic decor that looked inviting. (Not sure if dog was welcome there,). There is a dog park a few blocks away on the other side of the railroad. We also found a park a few blocks farther west with ballparks and lots of green grass.

Great location

Clean modern facility, very nice rooms, and great location Plenty of restaurants (both local and fast food) nearby, Walgreens store right in front. Close to the main road but set back enough to have some quiet.

Great historic motor inn

This motel has been operating since about 1950. The lobby has old furniture, wood burning fireplace, lots of decor. The rooms are updated but original floor plan. Unique place that's friendly to our dogs.


Travelodge by Wyndham Vaughn

October 18, 2021

Convenient location

On US 285 at the south edge of town. Check-in is at the Penny's Diner in front, also the only place in town to get a prepared meal. Currently take-out only, I called front desk (which is the diner) and ordered, it was ready when I went to pick it up. There is a nice fenced Dog Park across the highway behind Lalo's truck stop. Could be 5 bones but the hotel is not kept clean, someone broke a wine bottle in the parking lot just outside the rear entry, it was still there a day later.

Fire Alarm

The room was nice, the place looked newly remodeled, but 6am the second morning we were outside in 50-degree weather for a fire alarm. A water pipe burst. I left for about an hour, came back and we were allowed inside, but no water so couldn’t wash. I don’t know if was poor maintenance or the building is older than it looks. Put a sour note on what had been a nice stay.


Quality Inn & Suites

Clean, quiet place close to main highway

Hard to find because it’s no longer Country Inn, it’s a Quality Inn and Suites (since December 2020). Fast friendly check-in, clean comfortable room. Near major intersection (US 84) but a few miles north to find food and shops.

Great rates, large room

King suite (2 room) with parking lot entrance, and patio sliding windows onto the courtyard with pool. Low room rate (though there is a $20 pet fee). Convenient to Highway, shopping, and restaurants.

The Holland Hotel

May 17, 2021

Great dinner

My dog enjoyed the stay at Holland Hotel. Dogs aren’t allowed in the dining room, but can join you in the courtyard dining. Unfortunately the patio didn’t open due to severe weather forecast. I was told we could be served in the lobby, which didn’t sound so great, until we saw the lobby. Historic decor, a huge banquet table in the center, instead of “outcasts” we felt like royal treatment. Our server Katilyn brought a dog bowl with water, and gave us excellent attention despite her having other tables to serve in the restaurant. I almost hope the patio dining is closed the next time too!

Friendly place in busy location

I had a room reserved elsewhere and was told my room was given away before I arrived and they had no other room with 2 beds. BringFido found this nearby location so I left the other place and went to Motel 6. Good location lots of food in the area. The only bad thing was the grass area (which had dog poop bags and grass) was loaded with cigarette butts. I appreciate the smokers going outside the room and my dog didn't mind but it was dirty looking.

Exceptionally Friendly for our Dog

This is a relatively new hotel in great condition. A welcome packet with treats is given at check-in, and there is a barrel of dog cookies nearby. (Also people cookies at the desk!) To keep pets off the furniture a very nice dog blanket was offered (and brought to our room). Outside there is a fenced dog run with a bench for daddy to rest on.

For people, the bar is open in the evening, and a good breakfast buffet offered in the morning. Modern room big TV with many channel selections. Interesting artwork throughout.

Good location and friendly staff

Good location near many restaurants, ask for recommendations from the friendly staff at check in. Large comfortable room.

The hotel is a little tricky to get into because of the exit from 306, merging with frontage road. It was easiest to head west one exit then take the u-turn onto frontage road.

Welcoming staff

I was traveling through this area and some thunderstorms came up, so I decided to stop for the night. The hotel is several Traditional style buildings with grassy areas. Check in staff was very friendly and interested in my dog. A few minutes after settling in the room the front desk called to make sure everything was OK. They were very friendly and attentive. Good location close to town, fuel,, and restaurants. I went to the nearby Strasburg pizza for a sandwich and a slice.

May 9, 2019

Good location, great railroad town

Room was comfortable and clean, enjoyed this town. The restaurant had just reopened but had short hours on Sunday. The owner/manager was locking up and recommended Mario's Mexican down the road which was good.

We were in the"back building" which had some long term guests. Seemed okay but the neighbors smashed out their window early morning, that was a bit disturbing.

I still give 4 bones for comfort, friendliness, and location.

Friendly motel

Josh was very friendly and professional at check-in, gave me a ground floor room on request, went to make sure the room was ready.

This is a tricky location on a one way frontage road, you're supposed to turn in at the business prior to Motel 6. I missed it and came in the Do Not Enter.

Picked this place knowing motel 6 welcome pets, no reservation. We got a ground level room with early check in, no extra charge for pet. Laminate floor (no carpet) good idea for pet friendly room. Clean but worn room. Plenty of nearby food and services.
