Thank You Wanda! We would love to host you and your fur babies again soon!
Loved this cute home! So human and pet friendly! Love that you can walk to town and still feel away from it all. Beautiful front and back porches add a very peaceful feel. Love all the special touches and welcome gifts. And our pup especially loved the fluffy dog bed just for her!

Great house in Hot Springs!
This was so a cute and comfortable house situated on a small hill overlooking Hot Springs, NC. We were traveling with our small dog and this house completely met our needs! Looking forward to returning in the future!

Thank you for your review Ben! you and your family were lovely to host, and we would welcome you back anytime!.
The Bailey was above and beyond the best experience we have had staying with our two dogs. The home was comfy and cozy for both humans and pets alike. The dogs especially loved the provided dog bed and welcome treats, and their humans appreciated the well stocked kitchen and many other helpful dog forward amenities that allowed the family to travel more lightly. We all really enjoyed sitting out on the gated back deck, and the short walk into town.
The Bailey Cozy, clean, and comfortable - we had such a wonderful stay at The Bailey! So many thoughtful touches at this beautiful home - from the fully stocked kitchen (including an iron skillet!), extra toiletries in the bathroom, and a functional washer and dryer - the hosts really put a lot of effort into making sure guests feel at home while away from home. The beds were super comfortable, the original hardwood floors added so much character, and the front and back decks were amazing spots to relax and unwind. In addition, local menus and recommendations for activities were thoughtfully provided. Perhaps best of all, our little dog was welcomed with a fluffy bed, treats, and a special spot on the couch. If the dog is happy, everyone is happy! Highly recommend this beautiful mountain getaway!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It means a great deal to hear that you felt at home at The Bailey. We put a lot of thought into every detail—from the stocked kitchen and cozy beds to local recommendations—so guests can simply relax and enjoy the mountains.
We're especially happy your pup enjoyed the bed, treats, and special spot on the couch. We believe dogs deserve a vacation too!
Thank you for choosing The Bailey. We hope to welcome you (and your four-legged family member) back to Hot Springs again soon. And thank you for helping support our mission—10% of every stay goes toward helping shelter animals find loving homes.

Best pet friendly mountain rental
This is hands-down, the most friendly pet rental I’ve ever had. The owners have really thought of everything. There are dog beds, toys, bowls, and safe spaces to hang out on the porches. The house is within walking distance to downtown Hot Springs and has everything you need for a getaway. Fully stocked kitchen, comfortable living room and comfy beds. I 100% recommend this rental and will be back.

Home away from home!!!
The Bailey is truly what they advertised when booking. One of the easiest vacation options to settle into and start having fun checking out the mountain trails or relaxing on your choice of the front porch or back porch of this beautiful mountain home. Both porches have beautiful mountain view’s, the back porch also overlooks a private back yard and the front overlooks the town of Hot Springs. The inside was spotless clean and the beds and couches were so comfortable. Our dog loved the dog friendly atmosphere and we loved the welcoming pictures of the home’s namesake Bailey. Especially the beautiful picture with her pearl necklace on. We will definitely be planning our next trip.

Benny, Catherine & Sailor,
Thank you for your kind words, excellent communication and the care you took enjoying our home. We would love to host you again sometime soon!
“The Bailey” home in downtown Hot Springs is the perfect home for those who love their canine family members and want to take them along on their family vacation! Not only are your family pups welcomed, but pups are a key theme of this rental, honoring their precious lab named “Bailey”.Guests will enjoy comfortable beds, all you would need in the kitchen, and relaxing front and rear decks (great places to hang out). Plus, it is a short 5 minute walk to town.We wanted to support the town of Hot Springs, as they recover from the devastating damage from Hurricane Helene (September 2024) and are so glad we could come to town to enjoy hiking adventures, as well as a gravel bike race.
