Pets at Chestnutz

As pet owners ourselves, we appreciate animals enormously and welcome the enjoyment they bring. However, our first priority must be to the comfort of our human guests, both current and future. We've never had a problem with a bad pet, only irresponsible owners.  If your pet responds to unusual noises or environments by barking, chewing, or destroying property, please board it elsewhere.  Crate or "travel trained" pets are very welcome.

We have designated two rooms (one standard room, one superior room) as “pet friendly.”  The standard room is ideal for smaller pets, the superior room (with an enclosed patio) is ideal for larger animals.  You must notify us in advance if you are bringing a pet to ensure those rooms are available.  The following rules apply for your pet during your stay:

Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times outside of the rooms and can not roam the property unattended. Dogs are only allowed in the pool area when leashed.

Dogs must be walked off the property

If the behavior of your pet(s) creates a nuisance for guests and your are not able to bring the animal under control, you will be required to make other arrangements for your pet.

If the behavior of your pet(s) creates a nuisance for guests and you are not present on the property to control your animal(s), the owners of Chestnutz are authorized to have the animal removed from the property.

You are held financially responsible for any and all damage and excess cleaning charges your pet(s) may cause to furnishings, bedding, and other room amenities during your stay.

Sorry, but we don't accept pets for one-night-only stays.

There is a one-time $35 per pet charge to cover the additional cleaning costs associated with having a pet in the room. In addition, you agree to reimburse Chestnutz for any damage or excess cleaning charges your pet may cause to furnishings, bedding and other room amenities during your stay, including guest complaints resulting in loss of revenue. If pet damage is discovered after you leave, we are authorized to bill your credit card for any and all damages

A Sad Note

         

"Dogs lives are short, too short, but you know that going in.  You know the pain is coming, you're going to lose a dog, and there's going to be great anguish, so you live fully in the moment with her, never fail to share her joy or delight in her innocence, because you can't support the illusion that a dog can be your lifelong companion.  There's such beauty in the hard honesty of that, in accepting and giving love while always aware it comes with an unbearable price.  Maybe loving dogs is a way we do penance for all the other illusions we allow ourselves and for the mistakes we make because of those illusions."                                                  --- Dean Koontz, The Darkest Evening of the Year
