We took another couple with us and all of us enjoyed the experience. We have travelled the area that was our trip before, but found a couple of spots that we weren’t aware of. Certainly is a unique idea.
We always love to hear when people find new hidden gems in areas that are familiar to them! :) We're so happy you had a great time exploring, and thank you so much for leaving a review!

We were excited to bring our dog along since this trip was advertised as dog-friendly, but unfortunately that wasn't really the case.
At the fist stop, some places we were supposed to check out didn't allow dogs inside. One of us had to stay outside while the other went in alone, which took away from the experience. Even more surprising, we were directed to a trail that had a large "NO DOGS ALLOWED" sign, which is something I've never encountered on a trail before.
The third stop was meant to be a lunch break. The only patio that allowed dogs had a three-hour wait since dogs were only allowed on the outside of the patio perimeter. The description mentioned a beer garden we could have some snacks in, but when we asked the staff about it, they laughed and said no such place existed. With no dog-friendly options or takeout alternatives available, we had to skip lunch altogether.
There were definitely some beautiful spots we wouldn't have found on our own, and we appreciated those moments. But overall, it was disappointing that a trip labeled as dog-friendly ended up excluding our dog a lot. This trip would have been rated higher if not recommended we could bring our dog.
Thank you so much for your review and feedback. We are truly sorry that your road trip experience was less than ideal, and we will look into these issues right away! Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we truly hope that you will give another one of our road trips a try in the future.

Loved this day that was beautifully curated. I went with 5 girlfriends and we loved our day together. It was a fun mix of small town, outdoor trails, and yummy spots to eat.
