Pet Policy at Tom Quick Inn

We are delighted to welcome well-behaved dogs and other pets. It is important that our pet policies–and the charges incurred if a pet urinates or defecates in a room, scratches furniture or woodwork, or otherwise inflicts damage–are clearly understood by our guests.

Please review the following and sign to confirm your consent:

  • The fee to accommodate your pet is $75 per stay (not per night).
  • We can sometimes–but not always–accommodate more than one pet in a room; please call in advance to make those arrangements.
  • Your pet must be leashed at all times when on the hotel property. Well-behaved leashed dogs may dine with their owners on the porch in seasonal weather.
  • Your pet may be left in your room only if the pet is crated and the guest services desk is notified what time you expect to return.  If you do not travel with a crate, please reserve one when you make your reservation. If a pet is barking or whining, we will contact you to return to retrieve your pet.
  • Pets may not be walked in the hotel’s enclosed garden.
  • Pet owners are responsible for picking up after their pet, around the hotel and in the town of Milford.  Pickup bags are available from the front reception desk.

$250 Damage deposit Pet owners are responsible for any damage to the hotel, your room and its contents caused by your pet. We require a $250 damage deposit at check-in, which is refunded upon checkout assuming there is no damage.

If a pet urinates, defecates or vomits on the carpet or bedding, or any extra cleaning or repairs are necessary, a minimum of $150 will be debited from your deposit. Depending on the damage, the balance of the deposit and additional fees may be assessed, including for loss of revenue if the room is put out of service.

We realize that even well-behaved pets can sometimes have accidents, but we ask our guests to walk their pets frequently to avoid such an occurrence. If there is an accident, please notify us immediately so we can seek to mitigate the potential stain in our carpets in the rooms.

Finally, by advance arrangement with the Guest Services office, we are happy make arrangements for pet-sitting, walking or salon services.

HIKES AND WATERFALLS

In 1872, Philadelphia’s Daily Evening Telegraph described our region’s fluviarchy — a network of waterfalls flowing into the Delaware River — as “precipitating themselves over cataracts of great heights, plunging into miniature lakelets, and noisily bubbling through miniature gorges or moss-hung glens.” Several of these “noisy bubblers” are located within the Delaware Watergap National Park (DWNRA).

RAYMONDSKILL FALLS

Located in the DWNRA, less than four miles from the hotel, is this breathtaking, year-round sight. The roaring, 105-foot Raymondskill Falls includes three tiers of cascades; visitors may view each unique water feature from a different section of the hiking trail. The total roundtrip hike to all three falls is less than one mile. From the Hotel, follow Route 209 south into the DWNRA about three miles and make a right at the sign for Raymondskill Falls.

DINGMANS FALLS

The 75-foot Dingmans Falls is the DWNRA’s most popular waterfall. Novice hikers will enjoy the short trek, which wends by Silver Thread Falls. A flat boardwalk trail, accessible to wheelchair-users, passes through a hemlock ravine and delivers hikers to the base of Dingmans Falls, where a steep climb of 240 steps will take you to the top. From the Hotel, follow Route 209 south into the DWNRA for about 10 miles and turn right at the stoplight at Route 739.

BIKING

Bicycle PA Route L follows a north-south route through the mountains, with segments on the D&H and Lehigh Gorge trails. Bicycle PA Route Y generally follows PA Route 6, but it also includes some lightly traveled country roads in this region. Delaware State Forest Thirty-one miles of designated mountain bike trails and gravel roads. Biking is permitted on all trails not designated for “foot travel only.” Delaware Water Gap National Park Miles of mountain biking, hiking and cross-country ski trails. Please adhere to signs posted.

FISHING

The Delaware River Highlands area offers hundreds of places to fish for a variety of species, including trout, bass, walleye and American shad. Fishing licenses, available at most sporting goods stores and some town halls, are required for anglers 16 and older. An additional permit is required for trout. Boat accesses are plentiful and most are free. Please note that not every ramp is suitable for every craft, as not every body of water is suitable for every craft. Pay special attention to signage. The Delaware State Forest has 11 lakes and ponds. Peck’s Pond has two launch sites. Large power boating is available on Lake Wallenpaupack. Smaller powerboats and watercraft, like canoes and kayaks, are ideal for most other waters. Milford Beach, about a mile from the hotel, offers a launch for canoes, kayaks and small watercraft.
