Pet Friendly Accommodations
Your dog is considered a part of the family, but that furry family member often has to be left behind when it’s 
time to go on vacation. Fortunately, there are some places that welcome pets with open arms. Fingerlakes Luxury Rentals located in the Finger Lakes region in Central New York State is one such place where pets can be free to enjoy the local flavor just like their favorite humans so the next time you are considering a Finger Lakes vacation, consider bringing your pet along.
Parks Where Your Pet Can Have a Barking Good Time:
If there’s one thing a dog really loves, it is getting to walk, romp and play in the great outdoors. There are several area parks that welcome dog lovers. Dogs really appreciate the fresh air and natural sights. Pets can trot down country roads or hike on a trail as long as they are on a secure leash.
These parks are popular among pet owners:
Cayuga Lake State Park
Located on the northwest shore of Cayuga Lake, Cayuga Lake State Park has everything you and your pet could want. If you both love the water, this is a wonderful place to go boating or fishing. Dogs can’t go into the swimming areas, but they can go anywhere else inside the park, including the nature trails.
Finger Lakes National Forest:
Nestled between Cayuga Lake and Seneca Lake is the vast Finger Lakes National Forest. With over 30 miles of interconnected trails the forest is a fantastic way to experience all facets of rustic beauty. Walk the 12-mile Interloken Trail or enjoy a scenic car ride through the area.
