CHARLOTTE, N.C. — If you plan to hit the road with your pet, one North Carolina destination may be an ideal place to visit.
That’s because a new report finds that Asheville is one of the most pet-friendly spots in the nation.
The mountain tourist town ranks No. 9 on a list of places offering some of the best amenities that appeal to furry friends, according to figures published by Motel 6.
“Pets are members of the family, so travelers are eager to bring them along for the ride as they explore the U.S.,” Rob Palleschi, CEO of the motel chain, said in a March 31 news release.
