That’s why we allow our guests to bring along their pets with a non-refundable $100 pet fee per pet. Pets must be approved prior to the visit. Pets must be crated if your pet is left alone. If you do not have a crate your pet must be able to be left on the porch. You will be responsible for any damages created by your pet. We do not allow pets on the bedding or the furniture. And we expect you to clean up after your pet inside and out. If you allow your pet to enjoy the Cullasaja River with you, please make sure their paws are clean before going back into the cabin. We have supplied a water hose in case it's needed. We appreciate you following the rules of the River’s Edge Cabin so all our guests can enjoy their stay.
