A vibrant dog park bathed in sunlight features abundant greenery with mature trees, offering ample shade for leisurely outdoor activities. In the distance is a well-equipped playground that presents an additional activity area. An inviting picnic table spreads out nearby, ideal for enjoying meals al fresco or taking relaxing breaks from play. A neatly-placed trash bin aids in maintaining the park's cleanliness for everyone's enjoyment. Dominating the scene is a generously wide dirt path gracefully curving through the expanse of grass, promising exploratory walks and lively fetch games.

To make summer memories on the California coast, book a stay at the iconic Little River Inn. This very dog-friendly jewel just south of Mendocino overlooks the majestic Pacific Ocean, and it’s a short walk from state beachfront and trails. The locally owned resort has extended a warm welcome to couples, families and four-legged companions for more than 80 years.

The very dog-friendly Little River Inn knows that pups are cherished family members. Staff members serve up welcome treats for furry guests, and you’ll find pet-friendly accommodations, dining options and activities galore.

The Little River Inn has stylish accommodations with amenities like water dishes, waste bags, welcome treats and pet towels. Recent cottage additions to the dog-friendly offerings include the garden-view Johanna Brock and the Hannah Madison, which has a hot tub on the deck.

You can also book Rosie’s Cottage, a contemporary favorite, or rooms ranging from the ocean view deluxe to the garden retreat luxury suite to hideaways with gas fireplaces, steam showers and soaking tubs.

The Little River Inn has dog-friendly dining on the garden patio, complete with small plates, seafood and seasonal dishes. You can also order room service and enjoy dinner against an ocean sunset backdrop.

And if it’s adventures you’re after, book the Ultimate Adventure Package to enjoy a three-night stay for two in an ocean view room, a Little River Inn backpack stocked with snacks and summer travel supplies, and tickets to three local favorites: the Skunk Train, Catch-a-Canoe and the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens. You can book individual packages too.
