Pets, and a real piece of law

Dogs at Cedar Lodge, and what a service animal is owed

Our pet policy, and what a service animal is owed under federal and California law.

Last checked 24 September 2026.

Our pet policy, stated plainly

Dogs and cats, two per booking. In a motel room or the home, $20 per pet per night, capped at $60 for the whole stay, however many pets. On an RV site, free. No weight limit and no breed restrictions: we run this on a behavior standard instead. Pets must be leashed outside your room or RV, never left unattended, and cleaned up after. Any animal that is aggressive or barks persistently will be asked to leave. The full policy is on our policies.

Service animals: free, everywhere, no exceptions

A service animal is welcome in every room and on every site at no charge. It is not subject to our pet fee, our two pet limit, or any other pet rule on this page, and we do not restrict it to particular rooms.

Federal regulation, 28 CFR 36.302, says we may not require identification, certification, or proof of training, and may not charge a surcharge of any kind because of the animal.

Emotional support animals are different

Emotional support, comfort, and companion animals are not service animals under either the federal or the California definition. We book them as pets.

Rooms, the home and RV sites are on our stay page.
