Bring Fido Along for Your Pet-Friendly Visit

For most of us, we consider our pets part of the family, so it makes sense that you’d want to include your furry companion in family outings whenever you can. Lucky for you and your dog, we’re very pet-friendly here at Freshfields Village! From events to shops, we’re making it even easier for you to find out where your pets can join you.

Pet-friendly stores around the Village will now have a decal in their windows letting you know your pets are welcome inside. You can bring your well-behaved, leashed pooch with you while you shop, and many stores offer water bowls outside and tasty treats for your companion.

Additionally, restaurants will now showcase a window decal designating that they have a pet-friendly patio. After a day of shopping, you can bring your leashed companion by for a bite to eat and cool down.

As always, the Village Green is a great place to enjoy the beautiful Kiawah Island weather and relax with your pet. A majority of our events including Music on the Green and Starlight Cinema are pet-friendly. We welcome well-mannered, leashed pets to enjoy the events with their families.

To plan your day at Freshfields Village, take a look at our shopping directory and restaurant directory (link out to directories) where logos will indicate pet friendly stores and restaurant patios on individual tenant pages. Or be on the lookout for pet-friendly decals. Be sure to clean up after your pet using one of our pet-waste stations throughout the Village and check out our Pet Rules & Regulations.

Don’t let your dog miss out on all the fun this summer! Bring them along for a day and evening at Freshfields Village and share their tail-wagging moments using #DogsofFreshfields.

Show the Love on Mother’s Day the Freshfields Way

Shopping for the supermoms in your life can be a one-stop experience at Freshfields Village.

If a laid-back day on the beach with a book in hand is more the gift you’re going for, Indigo Books, one of the few remaining independent bookstores in the state, should be your go-to stop. Although they have some great reads, they also offer stationary, greeting cards, and journals. With a great book and a journal to give mom a place to write down those special moments, a quick stop at Indigo Books will have you covered.

If she won’t splurge on the pampering she deserves, bring the spa to her! Treat her to a variety of new products at Bluemercury or a gift card for a relaxing massage at Urban Nirvana. With the importance of self care being talked about more and more, introduce her to the regime she didn’t know she needed.

Active moms love gifts that support their healthy lifestyles. If you know someone like this, we have the perfect line-up!
