Do you love to travel? Are you quietly Googling vacation destinations when you’re supposed to be on a Zoom call? You’re not alone! Sometimes, all we can really think about is where and how to get away. However, there are often a plethora of challenges to actually being able to get in the car or on the plane, such as: 

• Work schedules
• Travel costs
• Family responsibilities 
• Chores at home
• Civic responsibilities 

For pet owners, traveling presents another set of concerns. Besides the challenges of finding someone you trust to care for them while you’re gone, you just don’t want to leave your beloved puppy at home. If only you could find a pet-friendly resort in the kind of place you want to visit. Barkwells is the dog-lovers vacation retreat in western North Carolina!
