Debbie J., our latest Paw Tester wrote in to tell us about Pine Cone Resort at Lake Tahoe, ‘the most fun place’ she has ever stayed with her dogs, Boomer and Molly.

Dogs at Lake Tahoe

Debbie wrote, “we love being able to swim in Lake Tahoe, and Zephyr Cove has it’s own dog beach. It’s only a mile from Pine Cone Resort, and it’s one of the prettiest spots on Lake Tahoe. The ladies at the Pine Cone always welcome us and if you like a quiet and “woodsy” place, this is for you. The rooms all have a fully stocked kitchen, living room, separate bathroom and bedroom. If you pull out the couch and futon, you can sleep up to 8 people. It’s a lot of fun and in a very pretty spot.”
