Dongjak Rest Area to Operate 'Pet-Friendly Rooms' Starting Next Year

Designated Rooms Available for Use with Companion Dogs Starting January 2024... Gradual Expansion Planned

Dongjak-gu (Mayor Park Il-ha) announced on the 7th that it will operate pet-friendly rooms at Dongjak Rest House (Dongjak Stay) starting next year.

As the number of households raising pets increases, the district has decided to provide an environment where residents can enjoy travel and relaxation with their dogs.

Two rooms on the first floor of the main building and two camping units at Dongjak Rest House (343 Jungsin-ro, Anmyeon-eup, Taean-gun, Chungnam) will be designated as pet-friendly rooms and operated from January 2024. However, the camping site will not be available during the winter season until February next year and will be accessible from March.

Reservations for January 2024 can currently be made by phone, and from January, when reservations for February use open, users can enter pet registration information and make reservations through the Dongjak-gu Facilities Management Corporation website.

Dongjak Rest House is available not only to Dongjak-gu residents but also to residents from other regions. For more details, please check the Dongjak-gu Facilities Management Corporation website or inquire via phone.

The district has established usage rules for pet owners, including safety measures in shared spaces, and plans to manage and supervise operations safely, considering the presence of non-pet-owning guests.

Park Il-ha, Mayor of Dongjak-gu, said, “We have started operating pet-friendly rooms so that many residents can enjoy comfortable trips in the vast nature of Dongjak Rest House. We will continue to strive to improve awareness of pets and foster a mature pet culture.”

Dongjak Rest House is popular due to its proximity to tourist attractions such as Flowerji Beach, relatively affordable accommodation fees, and various convenience facilities including a family karaoke room, badminton, jokgu, and basketball courts.
