Thirty-five years ago, we lived near the ocean and since moving, return a few times a year for a fix and to reminisce. We've decided on Pacific Grove and have stayed in most all the little dog-friendly inns in the Asilomar area. Last week was our first at Butterfly Grove. It won't be our last, Quiet, clean and spacious king room along with $25 per dog not per night but per stay. There was a fireplace but no thermostat or heat vent evident.The room somehow stayed comfortable - a mystery. When rates are reasonable and our schedule allows, we'll stay at Butterfly Grove.

We stayed here for two nights and it was a nice, quiet area. The toilet seemed to be clogged when we checked in but they fixed it immediately. We were sad to see no butterflies were there which was the reason for our stay but I would still book here again as it's close enough to other attractions without the busy atmosphere.
