2. Make the Journey Comfortable
Car Rides Without the Chaos
Not all pets love car rides, and if yours tends to get anxious (or overly excited), here are a few ways to make the trip easier:
Bring their favorite blanket or bed – A familiar smell helps them settle.
Use a travel carrier or seatbelt harness – Safety first, even for pets!
Plan pit stops – Find pet-friendly rest areas along the way for potty breaks and stretching.
What to Pack for a Pet-Friendly Getaway
To keep your pet comfortable, don’t forget:
Food and treats
Water and a portable bowl
Leash and harness
Waste bags (because you don’t want to be that pet owner)
Favorite toy for comfort
Medications and vet records, just in case
3. Help Your Pet Adjust to a New Place
Give Them Time to Explore
The first thing your pet will want to do at your lakehouse retreat is sniff everything. Give them time to wander, check out their new surroundings, and get comfortable. Walk them around the property, let them explore the yard, and show them where they’ll be eating and sleeping.
Stick to Their Routine
Pets love routine, so try to keep meal times, potty breaks, and playtime as close to their normal schedule as possible. It helps them feel safe and settled in their new vacation home.
4. Enjoy Pet-Friendly Outdoor Activities
Take in the Fresh Air at Lake Puckaway
The best part about staying at a lakefront pet-friendly cabin rental in Wisconsin? The lake! Whether your pet loves water or prefers to stay on dry land, there’s plenty to do:

Splashing in the shallows – If your pup enjoys water, let them wade or play near the edge.
Relaxing on the porch – Adeline’s wrap-around porch is great for watching the lake with a warm drink and a happy, snoozing pet.
