Pet-friendly Vermont lodging
Experience True Pet-friendly Lodging at our Luxury Vermont Inn
Many hotels, inns, and bed and breakfasts claim to be pet-friendly. They invite you to travel with your pet, yet once you’ve arrived, you find that the best rooms are reserved for those without pets, while you and your dog are directed to the oldest and ugliest accommodations. On top of the less-than-lovely lodging, you have to pay a hefty per night pet charge, including a safety deposit. If you’ve ever experienced this kind of ‘pet-friendly vacation’, you’ll find the Phineas Swann Inn to be a refreshing change.
The Phineas Swann Inn offers a TRUE pet-friendly vacation experience at a beautifully-restored romantic Vermont inn near Jay Peak. Unlike other lodging properties that will only tolerate your dog, we will welcome you and your pet with genuine enthusiasm. We have found that through the years, dog owners and their pets are among the most enjoyable guests we have ever had. The owners of the Phineas Swann are “DOG CRAZY!!!!”, and would love to have you and your dog as their guests.
