dogs welcome
Chevy Chase has been hosting well-behaved pups and their families for over 125 years
Chevy Chase Beach Cabins and the adjoining private beach is a haven for dogs!
We welcome dogs at Chevy Chase Beach Cabins because we are dog lovers ourselves and used to love to vacation with our furry friends (sorry no cats or other animals - dogs only)! We allow well-mannered and housebroken dogs in all seven of our vacation cottages with prior arrangement for $25/per dog per night (maximum 2 dogs per cabin). Dogs are treated to the same outstanding service as our human guests. We provide dog sheets, treats and towels. We want all of our guests to have a fabulous and memorable stay with us, so we ask that you follow the dog guidelines to ensure that everyone on the property has a positive experience.
There are many dog friendly places and adventures on the Olympic Peninsula. Check out our Neighborhood Guide and trail map🐾 for some local favorites.
Dog Guidelines
Please do not leave your dog unattended in the cabin at any time
From experience, even dogs who typically don’t ever bark or act out tend to do so when left alone in an unfamiliar place (even if just for a few minutes). We’d hate to have to call you home from your outing or charge you for damage in the cabin. If you need a dog sitter, reach out to Jonathan and Catherine at Sirius Animal Services.
Please do not let your dog roam the property unattended and keep your dog leashed outside
The reality is that not all of our guests love dogs as much as we do and your dog might poop! In addition, as we are away from the city, we have lots of wonderful creatures that share the property and surrounding areas such as squirrels, deer, coyotes, otters, eagles, bunnies, birds and many more. We are also close to two country roads. When out and about, Jefferson County also requires dogs on a leash of no more than eight feet long.
Please scoop all dog waste and drop it in one of the outdoor receptacles
There is the main blue dumpster by the parking lot, the hanging bin by the green electrical box in the center of the property on the main property, a garbage at the top of the stairs to the beach and one located by the fence at Meadow House.
If your dog is wet and/or sandy, please do your best to dry them with the dog towels we provided before bringing them in
You can also hose them off if they have had a blast in the mud. You do this at home, right? And please, please don’t use the bath towels! If you need more dog towels don’t hesitate to ask.
Please keep your dogs out of the flower beds and gardens
We work hard to maintain the beautiful grounds and it makes us sad when we see dogs trampling on the flowers/plants, digging in the garden beds and/or using our garden beds as their restroom.
We really prefer that your dog does not jump on the furniture or sleep in the beds
If your dog is so spoiled and will do so anyway, please use the provided dog sheets to cover couches, chairs and beds. This helps to preserve our furniture and bedding, and we so appreciate it! Again, if you need more just ask.
Please do not bring your dog in the pool area
If you are going swimming, we have a shaded area set up by the trees near the gazebo where you can let your dog relax. We have stakes in the ground but please don't forget your leash! We can lose our pool license if there is a dog in the pool area.
Please give your dog lots of belly rubs, long walks, and lots of treats!
We are honored that you chose Chevy Chase Beach Cabins to vacation with your pooch!
