I live in Pensacola, FL about 25 minutes from the beaches and I'm trying to find a house / condo or something on the beach to stay at for about a week this summer and NOBODY IS PET FRIENDLY!!! WHAT IS UP???
Just thought I would gripe

Have you checked with the realtors in your area? Sometimes they can help with that information. Also, we lived in Ocala last year and I picked up a little magazine type book that was nothing but pet information. If I remember right I think I got it in the racks at restaurants and grocery stores where you pick up the coupon books. I thought the rules changed after all the hurricaines and hotels had to start taking pets now?

thanks for the info. out of all the hotel/motels on the beach, 1 is pet friendly... and of course have no vacancies... i really would like to get a house though but every where you look.. NO PETS!... like you should be ashamed to think you can bring you dog! pets arent even allowed on the beach!

You could post an ad on craigslist.com in the area you are interested in under vacation rentals. It's free. Just include in the ad that you have a pet so you don't waste your time with non pet friendly responses.

A lot of beaches (at least the ones I am familiar with/have visited) aren't dog friendly during the summer.

Have you tried Google for help?

Yorkieluv · 02-26-2007, 09:38 PM

go to www.vrbo.com
Click on the state and then city that you are wanting to visit, and all the available rentals by owners will be listed there. I think this will be your best bet. There is a little doggie paw or something like that by the rentals that accept pets. This should help, I hope

Good luck!

I just did a quick search for you for that area, and it looks like there are some options.

If you want to go somewhere other than Pensacola, there are tons of pet friendly homes on St George Island.

Also, here is one in Panama City http://www.findvacationrentals.com/3257

Try Gulf Shores or Orange Beach -- here are some: http://www.gulfrentals.com/pets.htm

I am over in Santa Rosa County -- hello neighbor! I wanted to rent a place for Spring break but it looks like my son has baseball everyday. So, we would not be able to spend much time there. ;(

You might have a better time in a more pet-friendly town. Perhaps you can find a spot that has a number of places that allow pets and that at least allows dogs on the beach at night. I find that if I take Max to a pet-friendly town, there are dog water bowls outside of the shops, they let you in with your animal, etc.
It's a nice experience.

Brooklyn is actually very pet-friendly. No water bowls outside, but most of the stores allow Max in as long as I hold him and the beaches are open to dogs at night. We have several pet-friendly bar/clubs which I have to visit. I'm not advising Brooklyn for your vacation, but it makes life much more pleasant and easier for me.

Have a great vacation,

Judy
