The square in front of the Yavapai County Courthouse is pet-friendly. This lovely courthouse square contains large shade trees, lush grass, and chairs where you can unwind after a day of touring.

Dogs are welcome at Born To Be Wild Adventures Tours & Rentals! Leashed dogs are welcome to accompany their owners on a kayak ride around their favorite lake. Dog owners should consider how their dog may react to kayaking, according to Born To Be Wild. They may not want to book if they believe their dog will be nervous, will not listen, or will leap out frequently. The Tour organization also suggests bringing a dog life jacket because the water can be dangerous, and owners will want to be able to immediately catch their pet. For information on lakes, rates, and what to bring, dog owners should visit Born To Be Wild Adventures Tours & Rentals' official website. Born Till Be Wild is open from 6 a.m. to sunset every day.

The Peavine Trail (Prescott Peavine Trail) is one of 1600 rail-trails supported by the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, a nonprofit organization dedicated to building a statewide network of trails from abandoned rail lines and connecting corridors.

A parking lot with easy access to the Peavine Trail is shown on the map below (Prescott Peavine Trail).
