The only thing we love more than seeing familiar faces is seeing familiar tails.
Good Dogs Welcome.
Dog-Friendly Stays in Desert Hot Springs
At The Good House, dogs aren't treated like an afterthought, they're part of the vacation. Whether they're claiming the shady spot under your lounge chair, supervising your morning coffee or convincing you to take "just one more walk," we're here for it.
Bring your pup, settle in and enjoy a desert escape that's better together.
Whether you're booking one of our boutique hotel rooms or checking into The Villa, there's a place for every member of the family.

Dogs stay at The Good House
Our seven-room boutique hotel welcomes up to two dogs per room, making it easy to enjoy a spontaneous weekend away without leaving anyone behind.
Spend your days exploring Desert Hot Springs, then come back to the peaceful courtyard where your pup can stretch out while you unwind in the mineral water.
Please note that while dogs are welcome throughout much of the property, they are not permitted in the mineral pools or spa facilities.

Need a little more room to roam?

(Because Every Good Dog Needs a Few)
We keep things pretty simple.
Up to two dogs are welcome.
$50 per dog, per stay for overnight guests.
Pup Passes are $25 and may be added to any guest Day Pass. A Day Pass for at least one person is required.
Dogs must remain leashed in common areas (outside your room or The Villa.)
Please do not leave dogs unattended in guest rooms.
Dogs are welcome throughout much of the property but may not enter the mineral pools or spa facilities.
Please clean up after your dog.
Because The Good House is all about peace and relaxation, we ask that dogs who bark excessively or become disruptive take a little break from the common areas.
Our goal is simple: to create a relaxing experience for every guest—whether they walk on two legs or four.
Some of the best adventures happen beyond our front gate.
Spend the morning exploring scenic desert trails, let your pup run at a nearby dog park, browse local pet boutiques, or grab lunch on a dog-friendly patio before heading back for an afternoon by the pool.
We've rounded up a few of our favorite dog-friendly spots nearby to help you make the most of your stay.
