Chances are you already know all of the many benefits associated with taking a vacation in the Smoky Mountains. From relaxing views to convenient locations, there is no better place for you and your family to spend a couple of days together away from the chaos of everyday life. However, did you know there is an easy way to make this experience even better?
With one minor adjustment, you can take a typical family vacation and transform it into something you and your loved ones will remember for years to come.
What is the change? Staying in a pet friendly Pigeon Forge cabin, of course!
Why Stay in a Pet Friendly Pigeon Forge Cabin?
Cuts Down on Vacation Planning Headache
If you are anything like us, when it comes to planning a family vacation in the Smoky Mountains, you like to do your research. Before you make your reservation, you already know which restaurants, attractions, shops and shows you and your family will want to visit.
On the other hand, you also know how much work goes into all that preplanning. Not only do you have to do your research on what exciting things you and your family will want to experience in the area, but you also have to do your research on what to do with your pet while you are gone. Are you going to hire a sitter, do you trust your neighbor to watch him/her, is there a reputable border near your house?
With so many questions, you have to ask yourself, why not eliminate this headache altogether and simply bring your pet with you to the Smokies! That’s right, when you are booking your vacation rental, why not select one of the many pet friendly Pigeon Forge cabin rentals that we offer and cut way down on your planning time.
Saves You Money
Believe it or not, staying in a pet friendly Pigeon Forge cabin is also an easy way to save a ton of money on your vacation cost. Yes, we do ask that families include a small security deposit when staying in one of our pet friendly cabins, but that is still a fraction of the cost that pet parents would have to spend if they decided to leave their dog at home.
Many pet kennels and boarders can charge families between $40-$100 per day, per pet. If you multiply that by how many days you plan on staying for your vacation, that can really add up. Not to mention, you also have to structure the time you get to enjoy your trip around when you have to drop off and pick up your pet to avoid any additional charges.
Helps Create New Family Memories
It’s no secret that dogs are man’s best friend. If you don’t believe us, think back at all the fond family memories that your dog has helped you create over the years? Now, imagine sharing in even more of those fond memories in the heart of your family’s favorite vacation spot, the Great Smoky Mountains.
Whether it is lounging in front of a cozy fire on a rainy day inside your pet friendly Pigeon Forge cabin rental or walking around downtown Gatlinburg as you window shop, there is no doubt that having your pet with you during your vacation will help create a ton of new fond memories that you both will cherish for years to come.
Encourages You to Explore the Area
Speaking of walking around downtown Gatlinburg, did you know that staying in a pet friendly Pigeon Forge cabin rental encourages you to explore the Smokies more? Sure, you have probably done your fair share of exploration over the many years that you have been traveling to the area, but when you travel with a pet you will probably need to look for other exciting pet-friendly things to do in the Smokies.
A few of our favorite pet-friendly things to do in the Smokies include:
- Doggywood at Dollywood
- The Village Shops in Downtown Gatlinburg
- Smoky Mountain River Rat
- Gatlinburg Sky Lift
There are also two pet-friendly hiking trails in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the Gatlinburg Trail and the Oconaluftee River Trail.
Healthy For Both You & Your Pet
Did you know that having a pet around helps reduce your stress and lowers your blood pressure? In addition, did you know that by having you around, your pet is less likely to suffer from anxiety and depression? That is a ton of health benefits for both you and your pet simply by choosing to vacation together in a pet friendly Pigeon Forge cabin rental.
It’s pretty awesome that a trip to the Smokies can help you both live longer and happier!
