Pet Policy

Effective April 1, 2019: Registered resort pet guests are welcome at The Omni Homestead. Pet rooms are limited and are based on availability. Two dogs up to 60 lbs. each may be registered to a room, if a valid credit card is on file. Please note that our pet policy extends only to dogs. Other pets, including extreme or wild animals, are not allowed. Each room with a dog(s) will be charged a one-time non-refundable cleaning fee of $200. There will also be a per night pet fee of $50 per dog. The pet may not be left alone in the room for extended periods of time. In the event that your pet is the cause of guest noise complaints, you will be asked to remove the pet and may be liable for financial compensation to those guests disturbed. Dogs are not permitted in the Great Hall, dining outlets, retail shops, spa, pool areas, or along the Cascades Gorge. Guide dogs for the blind or otherwise disabled are exempt from our pet policy. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort and companionship do not qualify from this exemption under ADA guidelines. For your convenience, we have designated a selection of guest rooms to accommodate you and your dog. To ensure your pet is registered and that you have a pet friendly accommodation, please contact us at 540-839-3860.

Please note that only registered resort dogs are permitted on property. To signify that your dog has been properly registered, we will provide a red ribbon which is to be tied to the dog’s leash. This ribbon must be visible at all times throughout your stay. A fine of $500 will be assessed to the owner of any dog not registered with the resort.

For guests with service animals, we will provide a purple ribbon. This ribbon is for your convenience and will discreetly indicate to our associates that your animal is a service animal and that there is no reason to inquire about the animal's presence. While this is not a requirement, we ask that the purple ribbon be visible when in public areas.
