Meghan Martin, Martin Resorts’ Community Dog Relations Ambassador presents donation to Woods Humane Society and its community Programs Director, Steve Kragenbrink.

We believe no family member should be left behind during your visit to Pismo Beach, and this includes four-legged travel companions! That’s why we happily offer dog-friendly accommodations for you and Fido. We strive to provide a comfortable stay for all guests and provide furry friends with dog beds, treats and bowls as well as a designated play area and pet relief area. As part of our dog policy we collect a $20 nightly dog fee with the intention of donating 10% of the pet fee to the Woods Humane Society.

The Woods Humane Society is an animal sheltering, adoption and welfare nonprofit organization based in San Luis Obispo that annually places over 1,100 dogs and cats into loving homes. With the dedicated staff, hardworking volunteers and financial contributions of the community the Woods Humane Society has a 97% adoption rate for all the animals who temporarily call their state-of-the-art facility home.

We are excited to announce that from the 2012 pet fees collected from our hotel along with 3 other Martin Resorts sister hotels we were able to donate $4000 to the Woods Humane Society. Our donation will support the ongoing care and sheltering of homeless animals in San Luis Obispo. Woods Humane Society may use the donation to purchase supplies such as food, new toys, and comfortable dog beds, cover costs for micro chipping and spay and neutering, which each animal receives before they are adopted. With our annual donation to the Woods Humane Society we feel a sense of satisfaction knowing we are helping local homeless animals find their permanent home.
