Cambria Shores Inn is immaculately clean and well-maintained. It is extremely dog-friendly, providing blankets, bowls, treats, and a take-home bag containing a silicone bowl, tiny flashlight, and a poop bag dispenser. In addition, they have evening treats for the human guests with freshly baked cookies and brownies and a complimentary glass of wine. A breakfast basket containing fruit, pastries, and juice is delivered in the morning in a basket delivered to the room. There are many B&B's along Moonstone Beach, but Cambria Shores Inn is exceptional.

Perfect!!!

Beautiful property right on the beach! Wine tasting on site, complimentary breakfast in an adorable picnic basket, tons of beautiful outdoor seating in a garden, and super dog friendly! Dogs are not allowed on the beach directly outside the property because it's a protected marine sanctuary, but they are allowed on the lovely boardwalk and there are 2 dog beaches within a 30 minute drive.
