  • I'm trying to find out what the cost is to bring a pet. It says fees MAY apply but doesn't say for sure if it does and what amount.I have one ADA service dog which I know is free because of being a service dog but we have one companion dog traveling with us too so I'm wondering what the charge is for the companion dog.

    Our pet fee is $25 per night.
