Tavi the Terrier travels around New England hiking with his humans. He loves the woods but it shy around new people. He does not like noise and crowds.

Hopefully my reviews will help humans with shy pups find good places to stay while traveling.

Fantastic Property!

Green Harbor Waterfront Lodging

The grounds of Green Harbor Waterfront Lodging are fantastic! I love the amount of open grassy area, but the best part is the beach and dock. My dog had so much fun plopping on the beach, putting his paws in the river, and walking out on the dock.

Even when it is busy, there is enough space.

The rooms could use updating, but if I'm here in the summer, spring, or fall, I'm not spending much time indoors anyway. I do like that they all have their own doors that lead right outside, so Tavi doesn't have to walk through a hallway. He gets scared in hotel hall ways.

This is my go to dog-friendly place to stay on the cape.

Nice rooms, but too noisy for my dog

Wildcat Inn & Tavern

Dogs are allowed, but I wouldn't recommend bringing a dog unless the dog is super chill and loves people. The place was cute and clean, and had plenty of room for the dog to spread out. I loved how it had historic charm but still felt clean and comfortable.

Still, Tavi didn’t like it. There were too many noises.

When I travel to the mountains, it is for skiing and hiking, so it is important that my dog, spouse, and I can get to bed early and get a good night's sleep. However, when there is live music until ten o'clock, people outside and in the lobby talking loudly until after 11, and a busy kitchen below your room, that isn't so easy. Even when the music stopped and the people started leaving, it sounded like there was a stampede of horses below my room.

If you are the type who is going to be down stairs with the party and have a dog who doesn’t mind a little noise, you’d be fine. But if you have one who gets nervous or barks a lot, then this isn’t the place for you. Tavi was very spooked by all the noise and was terrified walking through the lobby.

The Inns only outdoor space had seating for their restaurant, so I never brought him out there even though technically, I could have. Instead, I crossed the street to a big park and walked him through there. He did love the park and the little path on the river. However, there were no outdoor barrels at the park or at the inn. In other words, there was no where to dispose of his waste after he did his business. I didn't want to bring it in my room, so I put in it in the car and threw it out when we drove by a gas station with an outside barrel.

It was also very hard to get the room to cool off even when the nights dropped down to the 50s.

Would I go back? Maybe. In the winter when I go skiing, I leave Tavi to have a sleep over with his buddy at my parent’s house. For one of those ski trips, I’d consider staying at the Wildcat Inn and Tavern, but I’d ask to stay on the third floor.

However, this is not my first choice in Jackson.
