STORIES ADOPT A DOG

Making memories on the Mendocino coast

By: DogTrekker Staff
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.

With soaking tubs, waterfront lawns and Pacific-view balconies, the Little River Inn invites guests to relax and recharge. On-property fun and flexible hotel packages offer options for active travelers, too.

The inn’s nine-hole golf course is an Audubon-certified experience that winds through redwood stands and follows fairways cooled by salty sea air.

A young woman with wavy brown hair sits next to a large black-coated dog by a serene lake in Mendocino. She gazes thoughtfully to the side, while the blurred trees and water in the background create a peaceful setting.

The Water Dog Sea Cave and River Dog packages bundle a pet-friendly stay with kayaking or canoeing excursions that accommodate dogs. Other specials cater to families, wine enthusiasts, wellness travelers and more.
