Pro pup tip: keep a little sausage from Quality Inn’s free breakfast in your pocket so you can steer them to Chewacla Waterfall with ease.

No matter how much you love this hotel’s contemporary conveniences, be sure to take a step back in time for an old-school shake at the historic Toomer’s Drugs soda fountain.
