Tails wagging and faces smiling, beagle buddies Rusty and Princess Ginger are the father and daughter reception committee for guests to their home at The Groveland Hotel! The historic two storied Groveland Hotel, 23 miles from Yosemite National Park on California’s Highway 120, was known in gold rush days as “The Best House on the Hill.” Only two hours drive from Sacramento or two and a half hours from San Francisco, she is a proud old lady, carefully restored and luxuriously furnished with European antiques, soft robes, feather beds and comforters. The Groveland Hotel is definitely pet friendly. Owner and Innkeeper, Peggy Mosley, has a soft spot for animals. Rusty and Princess are Peggy’s daily companions, with Miss Kitty as an addition to the group when her feline sensibilities allow such condescension. Four-footed guests are supplied with their own bedtime snack to go with the fresh baked cookies provided for their people pals. Specially selected ceramic or aluminum dishes are placed for mealtime and fluffy granny-quilted comforters lay ready for tired tail-waggers. The Groveland Hotel restaurant’s highly rated executive chef provides personally crafted gourmet dishes like Seared Hawaiian Ahi Tuna and Veal Amsterdam that go well with the nearly 600 label wine cellar and full service gold-rush era bar. The outdoor Garden Courtyard is an inviting place for pet families to dine. Guests gravitate to its green shaded privacy and pets are often seen resting on the stone and mortar overlay.
