Pets

Pets are welcome. We expect pets to be quiet, well-behaved and to be on a leash. $13/day/pet. Owners are liable for any damage!

Pets must be on a leash while on the main grounds. This is for the safety and enjoyment of all guests, human and animal.

Pets that are trained by vocal command may be off leash once away from the main lodging area or along Lake Buchanan. However, it is important to note that many wild animals roam the acreage at Rainbow Hearth. This may cause some animals to give chase and get lost. Keep this in mind when deciding if your pet is safe to be off leash.

Pet owners must pick up after their pets waste. There is no exception to this rule. If you forget baggies to clean up after them, please ask us and we will provide you with bags to clean up and dispose of waste.

Pets are not allowed in the dining area. Not everyone loves animals and some people are allergic to them. So the dining area is off limits to pets to ensure that all guests have an enjoyable dining experience. You may leave your pet in your suite while dining, or you can eat on the outdoor picnic tables with your pet.

Rainbow Hearth Sanctuary & Resort is not responsible for any injury or illness your pet may experience. You are solely responsible for their well being. You are solely responsible for any damage or injury they may cause.
