Best Dog Friendly Vacations – There’s something about January that makes me want to sit down with a calendar and plan a whole bunch of trips for the coming year. It’s so cold and dark outside that curling up with a laptop and planning adventures is incredibly satisfying.
Although our big international trip was cut short during the pandemic, we enjoyed getting reacquainted with the Seattle area and all of its great (and dog-friendly!) getaways this weekend. After ten years away from New York and Chicago, it was nice to come back and rediscover my favorite vacation spots, as well as see all the new and innovative glamping sites, boutique hotels, and unique Airbnbs that have popped up here. Most of all, I loved how many of them offer dog friendly options during your stay. I am much happier when we can take Dave and Lizzie on holiday.

Plus, you can relax after a day of sightseeing with a visit to the spa or sample Pacific Northwest cuisine at Cedar + Elm Restaurant. Dog details here.

Additionally, they are the perfect base for exploring Vashon Island’s beautiful beaches and for excursions. Nine of the sixteen cottages are dog friendly.
