Luie Boone was very excited to vacation to The Villages at Mt. Hood, Oregon, but then he heard that Timberline Lodge near Mt. Hood was used as the Overlook Hotel in The Shining. Rhonda, his hooman mom, is very excited because she loves Stephen King. Luie Boone is less sure. On one paw, being in a place from a famous movie feels kind of iconic. On the other paw, Luie Boone is not entirely interested in long hallways, mysterious vibes, or anything that might involve ghosts.

Luie Boone wants to let you in a big, doggy secret: A perfect vacation doesn't take much—just wide-open spaces to run, fresh air to sniff, and plenty of time with your favorite hoomans. In Arch Cape and Cannon Beach, those simple joys come naturally. These two laid-back coastal communities offer the ideal dog-friendly getaway, where life slows down and everything centers on the outdoors, the ocean, and each other.

Welcome to Dogtown USA—Bend, Oregon. It is the place to be!
