Pet Friendly Guidelines from Owners:
1 dog only, under 35 pounds. 75. Pet Fee
We are dog lovers, so we purposely make our property "dog-friendly" and welcome well-behaved, house-trained dogs for a $75 pet fee. NOTE: If we are not made aware of a "pet guest" and/or the pet fee is not paid, there will be a minimum $300.00 fee assessed in violation of this rule.

However, if you are bringing your furry loved one, be sure to cover the furniture in the living room as well as any bedspreads and/or linens in the bedrooms that your fur baby can jump or sit on. On the shelves in the laundry room are some of our old bedspreads and blankets that you may use to cover these furnishings. Please be aware that the Bonclarken community has a leash requirement for dogs. Also, you must "pick up" after your dog at all times. Please be sure to keep your "pet guests" under your control at all times and on a leash when exploring the community.

NOTE: When "nature calls" for your doggie, you can take the pet around the back or side of the house. Upon your departure, please dispose of the "doggie business bags" along with your other garbage.

IMPORTANT - As mentioned, your pet must be in your control at all times, and you are responsible for their actions. You must pick up and properly dispose of any waste from your animal. If you are found not taking care of and being responsible for your pet guest, we may impose a penalty of a $300. fee to be paid by the guest through our management company.
