Hey there fellow dog-lovers, it’s Riley and my gorgeous all-black German Shepherd, Charlotte, ready to give you the lowdown on our unforgettable adventure through the dog-friendly wonders of Mendocino County! \ud83d\udc3e\u2728<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We started our trip in style at the luxurious Stanford Inn<\/a>, which offered breathtaking views of Mendocino Bay and fabulous pet-friendly accommodations. We even grabbed a scrumptious bite at the ever-so-inclusive Ravens Restaurant<\/a>, where Charlotte was treated like royalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Feeling extra outdoorsy, we also explored the lush Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens<\/a>, where beautiful blooms and beachy views awaited us. And the best part? Charlotte was welcome to tag along!<\/p>\n\n\n\n But, trust me, you haven’t experienced Mendocino until you’ve been on the legendary Skunk Train<\/a>! This historic rail journey is not only dog-friendly but offers an unparalleled adventure through amazing redwoods, rustic bridges, and beautiful mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aside from the train ride, Charlotte and I had a blast hiking through the enchanting redwoods at the Montgomery Woods State Natural Reserve<\/a> and soaking up the coastal charm of Mendocino Headlands State Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And what’s a trip to Mendocino without a bit of wine-tasting? We found some fantastic dog-friendly wineries like Navarro Vineyards<\/a> and Handley Cellars Winery<\/a>, where Charlotte got to relax like the queen she is while I savored the local vintages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
