It’s quite common to see lots of people in this area with a dog on leash, along for the outing. Not all these two-leggers and four-leggers are locals! The attitude in this neck of the woods is very pet-friendly, and you’ll see that reflected in the dog-friendly hotels in Lake Tahoe. In every town around the lake, you’ll find places where the furriest family member will be welcome, and, perhaps, because there are more properties overall here, dog-friendly hotels in South Lake Tahoe are numerous. But, in all the towns around the lake, you can choose from high-end accommodations to the more traditional motels, and it’s worth noting that many Tahoe vacation rentals also welcome pets. You should be prepared to present vaccination records in many places; in fact, make sure to ask your preferred hotel in advance if such records are required. Another recommendation, especially if it’s your first visit to the area in winter, is to talk to the folks at these dog-friendly hotels in Lake Tahoe about safety and comfort for your dog in the snow. We get a lot of it in winter months, and your pup needs to keep warm too! Beyond the hotel and natural areas, you’ll be glad to discover that your dog will have plenty of company at outdoor events here too. Just make sure Fido is on a leash and plays well with others.
