Advertised as pet friendly. Resort called to confirm reservation about 2 days prior to arrival and verbally re-confirmed pet friendly. When we arrived, after check in, informed that pets were not allowed!!! Cancellation ensued and search for new location to stay commenced without assistance from lodging.
