Ösi goes Camping

Lydia's Mountain Lodge Standardsville, Va

Pro's - Great cabin, great location, I was able to roam free, breathe fresh air, warm myself by the camp fire, eat grilled hot dogs, and sticky marshmallows.

I went to Shenandoah National Park, and hike Browns Gap trail, were I saw my first bear, good thing my family had me on a leash, I would have thought it was a dog wanting to play with me.

The trail was about 6 miles round trip, the path was nice, not to difficult, and we saw a few waterfalls at the end of the trail were I could cool myself off.

Con's - They charge me a one time pet fee of $25, but it was well worth it, actually, that should be a pro, considering what some of the hotels are charging. I can't think of any major negatives, though you don't have any access to a river or lake to cool yourself off in the summer, but being the fall when we went it wasn't a issue.

Tip - stay away from 9 year old girls with marshmallow sticks, can make for a sticky mess when it gets stuck on your paws & hair.

I burried a brand new bone outside the cabin, good luck in finding it!
