Pet Policy

Pet Policy

There is a $50 fee per pet, per stay for dogs and small pets (max. 2 pets), $20/night for horses. Service pet owners must have documentation for their dog in order to wave the pet fee. Emotional support pets are eligible for the pet fee.

We request that pets are not left unattended and that they are leashed.  Avalanche Ranch has a zero tolerance policy for aggressive dogs. No pets allowed in the common “Lodge” or Pool Area.  Please inform the office if you plan to bring your pet(s).
