When we were taken to our cottage, we received a short “rules” document titled Twin Farms Loves Dogs. Our dog was allowed everywhere except the main building, spa, fitness room and furo. Daisy received her own welcome note from GM Michael Beardsley, a padded crate, food and water bowls, a can opener (brilliant), a chew toy, a grooming kit in a wicker basket including shedding combs, brushes, and even nail clippers. Daisy also received homemade peanut butter dog biscuits that were replenished with each housekeeping visit. They smelled so good we almost tried one, ourselves. All of this was made available for a $75 fee.

More importantly, there was a tremendous feeling of excitement among the staff. Daisy was their “first dog” and everyone seemed to be having such fun with it. Guest assistants took pride in introducing Daisy to other guests. Even housekeeping, who had undoubtedly spent a lot of time preparing the Log Cabin for Daisy, pulled their van off the side of the cottage road to see her and tell us how adorable she was. Daisy, being the ham that she is, loved every minute of it.
