Dogs

For the enjoyment of all of our guests, our policies regarding dogs are as follows:

Certified Medical Service Dogs and Guide Dogs are always welcome anywhere on our property. Please ensure your dog wears a service vest while on-site so our staff and other guests can provide you and your dog with compassionate, uninterrupted assistance and support.

Emotional Support Animals (ESAs) and Therapy Dogs are welcome in the Wine Shop on a leash and may be permitted to stay in the Guest House if they meet certain criteria. Please call our front desk to request approval to bring your ESA or Therapy Dog for an overnight stay at the Guest House before you arrive to avoid disappointment. Please note that ESAs or therapy dogs with little training who are poorly behaved or damage our property will be asked to leave.

Pet dogs are permitted inside the Wine Shop if they are on a leash, are well-behaved, and do not disrupt the enjoyment of the other guests.
