Pet Friendly Garge Apartment
We were there for 4 nights & one thing that drew us to this rental was that they were pet friendly. I did verify prior to our stay that we could bring 2 pets. It was just the right size for us & our 2 digs. The location was just right, out in the woods with a view of a lake & close to many breweries which we frequented because we could take our dogs with us. Also close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. We will definitely be back
