Weekend in Richmond with Friends in Dogtown

For being a place with no reviews and us being the 1st guests in the house, not gonna lie my group was a little hesitant, but this place was simply perfect. Everything was done right. Perfect for a family get away with a bunk bed room, or a friend group that has a little friend for the top bunk. Unfortunately we were only in Richmond for 2 nights so we didn’t get to use all the features that were given to us. If you need a place to stay in Richmond or any surrounding areas, Dogtown is your place!
