The Johanna Brock is a recent addition to the dog-friendly rooms and cottages offered by the Little River Inn, situated on the Mallory House property just a few minutes south of the main inn. If you’re looking for a comfortable base for exploring Mendocino County’s coastal trails and beaches, this cottage gives you a legitimate place to settle in with your dog after a day of exploring.
The room itself has a king bed positioned to take in garden views, a deep soaking jacuzzi tub, and a gas fireplace—the kind of setup that makes sense for foggy evenings on the coast. You’ll appreciate the practical touches: the inn provides water and food dishes, a pet towel, cover sheets for furniture, disposable waste bags, and welcome treats for your dog. It’s clear they’ve thought through what traveling with a dog actually requires.
There’s no size or breed restrictions here, and you can bring up to two dogs. The pet fee is $30 per night per dog. The property has designated on-leash walking areas mapped out with waste bag dispensers and receptacles positioned throughout, which takes the guesswork out of where to exercise your dog on the grounds. The inn also offers dog-friendly dining during breakfast and dinner if you arrange it in advance—a real convenience when you don’t want to leave your dog alone in the cottage.
One important note: pets can’t be left unattended in the cottage, so you’ll need to have someone with your dog at all times. The inn also makes clear that guests are responsible for any damage their dogs cause during the stay. To book a pet-friendly room here, you’ll need to call ahead. It’s worth the step to make sure they have availability and can confirm all the details for your specific stay.
