Jill profile pictureJillMay 16, 2024

Every luxury vacation rental should mean that no one gets left behind, including your fur babies. So if you’re thinking twice about bringing your fur baby with you to Wander Bandon Beach, don’t sweat it—pets are welcome in all Wander homes

For starters, check out these fun activities, pet-friendly restaurants, and shops in and around Bandon that will surely get your dog’s tail wagging. 

Pet-Friendly Activities

There are tons of outdoor activities you and your furry pal can embark (pun intended) together. Here are some ideas for you to try!

Bandon Beach

In case you didn’t know, your stay at Wander Bandon Beach comes with its own private path to the beach. So, take off their leash and let them wander and splash around to their heart’s content! Just remember to clean up after them, and be mindful of wildlife and other people in the area. 

You’ll also find fat-tire e-bikes in the garage, so don’t hesitate to grab a bike and take your dog for a stroll along the beach. Once they’re tired out, you can sit back and relax on the outdoor deck overlooking the gorgeous views of the Pacific Coast.

Heading to town to grab a few things? Be sure to stop by Bandon City Park for a fun doggy day out! The park features a fenced facility in the southwest corner where your furry friend can frolic off-leash.

There are also picnic tables, doggie waste bags, and water drinking facilities available. You can play fetch with your dog, and they can make new doggy friends here. Usual rules apply here—clean up after your dog and make sure that they play nice. 

New River Area Trails

If you’re planning an outdoor excursion for you and your four-legged pal, the New River Area Trails gives other trails a run for their money. This 2.4-mile loop trail is packed with plenty of activities you can do such as fishing, hiking, and paddle boarding during summer.

Like plenty of hiking trails, dogs must be on leash at all times. It’s a relatively easy route that dogs and their humans will enjoy, so don’t miss it!

Now, if you and your pet are going on a road trip up north to Coos Bay, Sunset Bay Golf Course can make the trip even more worthwhile. It’s a public course that has over 3,000 yards of wide open fairways and luscious green turf—good for golfing for humans, and frolicking for pooches.

In fact, you’ll find some horses and dogs roam freely in the area, which means that your furry pal can go off leash here. Still, it pays to be mindful of other guests so be sure to clean up and watch over your dog.

Pet-Friendly Restaurants
