I like to rent a cottage and relax by the lake. Your choice to go on hikes or short walks and swim and or boating or fishing..

Another idea is to rent a houseboat and journey along a rivertrail.

When we travel I like to stay in motels that allow for in room cooking or in summertime I take our portable BBQ and an electric 2 ring plate. You can just about make anything with that setup. It is so much cheaper than dining out and I enjoy homemade food more than restaurant food.

Scenic drives with look out points is also fun.

In the springtime we go waterfalling. Drive to a waterfall enjoy the view take pictures and yes we hike - but usually it is a short walk in to enjoy the falls. You don;t have to do the long walks. It is a day trip or if you want to do a week of waterfalling - plan it out and stay in motels. I like motels mainly as it is easy to walk out the dogs.

Motel 6 Super 8 La Quinta Comfort Inn Suites Some Holiday Inn Express take dogs.

There is a site if you google it that lists the most pet friendly cities in the US
