Carmel Valley Lodge Dog Friendly Review

Carmel Valley Lodge has earned an awesome A Roch Rank. This place is a gem for dog owners, with most rooms welcoming your furry friends. Dogs are allowed on the terrace and in public areas, but not in the pool or spa areas. While dogs can't be left alone in rooms, the lodge provides a list of local dog walkers and sitters, offering flexibility for busy travellers.

In terms of amenities, the lodge offers a thoughtful pet package that includes a toy, blanket, bowl, and goodies, plus one free night per pet package. The $25 per day fee is reasonable, especially considering the extras. The lodge also donates to a local pet charity, which is a nice touch for those who care about giving back. Plus, there is no damage deposit to worry about.

The nearby dog park across the street is a major perk, providing a convenient spot for exercise and play. Similarly, nearby leash-free Carmel Beach is another dog friendly draw.

Alongside the on-site garden, dog stations with poop bags and trash cans are practical additions to the resort that make life easier for dog owners. In summary, Carmel Valley Lodge is a fantastic choice for dog owners looking for a welcoming and accommodating stay.

To get the best possible room rate, always call the hotel and book directly using (831) 659-2261, and if you mention that you found them on Roch Dog, you might even get a discount.
