Provincetown is one of the most pet-friendly towns in the US. In fact, when walking down Commercial Street, it is quite common to overhear someone wish they’d “come back in a second life as a dog in Ptown!” It’s no secret that the lap of luxury our four-legged friends enjoy in Provincetown is quite plush. Ptown is also a great place to explore with your furry companion, so why not bring your pup with you and book a stay in one of these pet-friendly hotels?
