This place is the best we've ever found for caring for our dogs! We have driven over 2 hours from our home just to leave our pets in their care, and they are very reasonably priced as well. If you want your dogs to have as much as you're going to have going on vacation, try Black Fox.

Best pet kennel anywhere. The name is seriously correct: this really is a resort for pets. When you pick up your pet it probably won't want to leave!

I am giving this one star basically because the place is nice inside and out. However, I did not have a pleasant experience nor did my relatives. This resort is not really used as a business, but more of "I'll just board animals whenever I'm free" there is no consistency with pickup and drop off times or dates available. We asked about Saturday drop off and we're told to just "call tomorrow to check and see because she might be able to take them then" so we called the next day and she acted appalled that we would even ask such a thing and said she would never do that.
Being someone who owns your own business, of course one of the perks is to choose when you are "open" for business. But being rude to prospective customers and the inconsistency with hours of operation really disappointed me, especially when we heard such great things.
