Not all mimetic buildings are relics of the past. Out in Cottonwood, you’ll find a relatively new puppy. “Sweet Willy” started as a doodle on a dinner napkin—originally meant to be a giant billboard for chainsaw dog carvings. Thankfully, someone looked at that sketch and said, “Let’s make it a place you can sleep inn.”

Toby came first (a “small” 12-foot pup), but he’s solid—no guests allowed. Willy, on the other hand, is built for it: wood frame, stucco skin, shingle fur, and carpet ears.

Open since 2003, Dog Bark Park Inn hosts one family at a time. Skip the reservation and you might be left outside, sitting, rolling over, and begging to get in.
