    Not much to do for a handicapable pup

    This was a very dog friendly site. Everyone loved our little girl and the island had very nice scenery. The biggest problem is there really isn't much to do if you don't take the mansion tour or wagon ride, which dogs aren't allowed. We did a self-guided tour of all the spots on the island and was done in less than an hour.
