Our lakeside setting is perfect for morning walks and sunset strolls, making every day an adventure for your pet.

Bark and Donate: A Paws-itive Impact

Here at High Peaks Resort, every pet stay is a step toward making the world a better place for animals. We are excited to announce that in 2024 our generous guests helped us donate $10,640 to the Tri-Lakes Humane Society. This significant contribution, gathered from nightly pet fees, illustrates the power of community support and the spirit of giving that defines our guests. Your choice to stay with us helps ensure that dog-focused organizations continue their compassionate work, providing care, love, and new homes to animals in need. Every wag of a tail at our hotel helps wag another tail waiting for a home.
