Mendocino Inn and Farm welcomes dogs to this Little River property on the Mendocino coast, allowing up to two per room for $35 nightly each, with a 50-pound weight limit. It’s the kind of place where your dog can settle in while you explore the dramatic coastline nearby.

The property sits on working farmland, which is part of its appeal but also means some areas are off-limits for dogs—you won’t be able to bring them into the llama fields, chicken coop, or edible garden. That restriction makes sense given the animals and crops on-site, and the rest of the grounds give you plenty of room to move around. The setting itself is peaceful, with the kind of quiet you’re looking for on a coastal getaway.

What sets this inn apart is its commitment to sustainability through its “Every Stay Does Good” program. Your nightly rate contributes directly to environmental work like tree planting and coastal restoration. The property has EV charging stations (including Tesla chargers), uses compost for food waste, and stocks sustainable cleaning supplies throughout. They encourage guests to bring reusable water bottles, which cuts down on plastic. The kitchen sources locally and uses organic ingredients when possible.

The inn operates under Soul Community Planet’s “Holistic Hospitality” philosophy, which emphasizes wellness, sustainability, and social responsibility rather than just comfort. It’s not about luxury amenities but about creating a retreat that thinks beyond the immediate stay.

Highway 1 runs nearby, making it easy to access Mendocino’s downtown shops and restaurants, plus nearby hiking trails along the bluffs. Your dog gets a place to relax between adventures, and you get the satisfaction of supporting environmental initiatives while you’re there.
