There is a small admission fee to the park, but on site there are restrooms, a gift shop, a living history museum and beautiful areas to stop for a packed lunch. Dogs are permitted here but must remain leashed. Always clean up after your pet when out and about. If you are looking for a place to eat with your pet by your side, there are three restaurants at the Natural Bridge Hotel and Conference Centre that allow your dog to sit by you at one of the outdoor tables; The Red Fox Tavern, The Colonial Dining Room and the Archway Deli.

East Lexington

For something a little different, why not take your pup to the movies? Head up to Lexington’s Hull’s Drive In and relax in the comfort of your own car while you and Fido kick back and enjoy the latest blockbuster. A concession stand sells all your favourite movie snacks, plus a range of hot food such as hamburgers, corn dogs and toasted sandwiches.
