Hi Lamare!

This is indeed one of the best additions to that game, thank you very much!
I had a interesting glich, certainly because there is lots of troubleshooting with the game.

One of my families took the oppurtunity to bring their 3 toddler boys to their 3 Lakes cottage, but only the youngest boy was playable like parents, older kids and all pets. His twin and his "soon-to-grow-up" brother where in the game and all playable sims could interact with them as usual, but their pictures in the side-bar were missing. I kept on playing to see if it was possible, without leaving the lot of course. At home, everything was back to normal.

Later, I took another family with one toddler to 3 Lakes to check out the now "toddler-friendly hotels", but they only could leave the lot for a new residency or returning back home.

Hi.
First case with 3 toddlers. How many sims in total were travelling? Was the household larger than 8?
Second case. Isn't it normal that when you travel to your vacation home you can't check in in hotels? I'm not sure, but it's my first thought.

Hi !
Thank you for your answer, after I found my mistake, everything works great!

1) Just 7 sims + 2 pets! I tried again and it worked perfectly fine with 2 Toddlers (the eldest boy grew up meanwhile).

2) My sims could not leave any lot because the "Allow puppy kitten toddler riders" mod was simply put into the downloads folder without DH's Addon file: I tried the same as CRiz in Comment #88 and changed the values in the BCON of the Config file by DH. It doesn't seem to matter how but that it was edited in SimPe. In my case, Toddlers that can walk are able to go to community lots with Teens / Adults.

Now great vacations for the whole sim family!! )

Kind of a spinoff idea: wolf visits on vacation lots possibly do-able? I am dling this so my weres can take their four legged family with, but Three Lakes seems oddly empty with no wolves.

Hey @zanda1624
As they are, vacation homes and hotels are not pet friendly - they lack feeding and sleeping amenities for pets, as well as for toddlers. I suggest you get them ready beforehand by editing the lots in build mode (see my tips on building pet & toddler friendly hotels in the main post of this thread). Also, you could use a mod that's called build/buy enabler that allows you access to inventory anywhere.

About the missing dog, first of all, don't worry, you'll get him back!
1. Wait a bit longer, he may come back in a couple of hours on foot, so to speak.
2. If he doesn't come, go to neighbourhood screen and back - he might show up when you load the lot.
3. If he doesn't show up even then, something went wrong, but the good news is - if the picture is there, the dog is still a part of the family, he's probably just stuck off-world being invisible and needs a way to reappear. One way that comes to mind is moving - have a family member find own place, include the dog in the movers list, move them out and then back in. Or move the whole family out and back in, though, it's kind of a last resort, since you'll have to pack the furniture and it's annoying. Let's hope it won't come to that. By the way, if you only have one adult in the family, you could temporarily move in a spare sim from neighbourhood view or through the Sim Blender and then move them out with the dog.
4. Another thing to try is to clear off-world sims with Lot Debugger and then try to summon the dog with Sim Blender (the options might not be available for family members, but doesn't hurt to check - if it works, would be easier then moving).

I think, everyone should be able to get to their destination, even if they didn't make it to the car. If #1 and #2 didn't work, please let me know. Did anything out of the ordinary happen before the departure?
