The Capri is a great modern, retro hotel which has a very groovy 60s vibe to it. It is set in a peaceful and a relaxing environment with just a short walk to downtown Ojai. Rooms are super clean with calm colors and the overall hotel has a sleek look with zen-like furnishings. The biggest plus for this hotel is that is super pet-friendly. The pet-friendly rooms have a nice sized enclosed patio area, which open up to another huge enclosed grass area, almost like a manicured dog park with beautiful trees. We strongly recommend this hotel for pet travelers. Oh, and did we mention they offer continental breakfast.

Dog friendly Hikes & Parks in Ojai

Rose Valley Falls Trail

The remote location and shielding from the surrounding mountains makes this place a good all day trip. Rose Valley Falls is an amazing destination. There are actually two falls, an upper and lower set, with the upper set being far more beautiful, higher, and dazzling than the lower falls. This simple, short, and very easy hike leads to the base of the lower falls and returns via the same route, because the upper falls are very difficult and even dangerous to reach.Like many other areas around Ojai this place is open to Hikers, dogs, horses, and bikes

Piedra Blanca Trail
Piedra Blanca Trail is an easy, 2.5-mile hike in Los Padres National Forest that will take about 2 hours to complete with your dog. Enjoy the natural beauty of this trail with magnificent rock formations, lovely creek and great mountain views

This trail is a 2-mile easy to moderate trail offering great panoramic views of the Ojai Valley. This trail takes off from Highway 33 (8 miles north of Ojai) near Friends Ranch Packing House. It ends at Cozy Dell Creek, where it ties into the Foothill Trail and Cozy Dell Road. From this junction, a loop trail can be taken by following the Foothill Trail and then continuing along the road from camps or water along the way, this is a nice scenic hike due to the large, shady oak trees. Dogs need to be leashed.
