Pet Policy

Caution: We love pets, but we do require that they be disclosed and approved by management before check-in. Bringing in unauthorized pets will result in a $300 fee per violation, plus additional cleaning costs depending on the required work and any potential damage. 

That being said, at the Lake Andes Inn, we understand that pets are part of the family, and we’re delighted to welcome them to our property. To ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay for all our guests, we kindly ask that you adhere to the following pet policy:

Eligibility: We welcome up to two dogs per room. Please inform us at the time of booking if you plan to bring your pets along. If you’re planning to bring more than two dogs, please reach out to us in advance. We’re committed to finding a solution that accommodates your needs. If you’d like to bring a pet other than a dog, please give us a call to chat before booking. We’re open to considering other pets on a case-by-case basis! 

Pet Fees: The pet fee is $15 per night, with a maximum charge of $45 for the entire stay, applicable if your pet stays in or visits the room during your stay. A 7.7% sales and hospitality tax will be added to these prices. Dogs are not allowed on the beds, and we kindly ask that you refrain from using guest towels for them. An additional $50 fee, plus any applicable cost for damages, will be added to your stay if there is evidence of pets on the bed or if guest towels have been used for pets.

Pet Conduct: We require that dogs are well-behaved, potty-trained, and kept on a leash or in a carrier while in public areas of the property. Pets should not be left unattended in the rooms for more than 3 hours and must be in a carrier or kennel when you are not present.

Damage Responsibility: Owners are fully responsible for any damage or excessive cleaning required due to their pets. Charges for such damage and/or cleaning are not covered by the pet fee and will be added to the guest’s bill.

Designated Areas & Clean-Up: Dogs are not permitted in the BBQ area. Please use the designated potty area or any of the grassy spots around the property for your pet’s needs. Be sure to clean up after your furry friend to keep our space tidy and enjoyable for everyone. Note: Fees will apply for violations of this policy.

Noise Control: To ensure the comfort of all our guests, please prevent your pets from making excessive noise.

Safety: For the safety of your pets and others, please inform the front desk if your pet is prone to aggressive behavior.
