There are about 150,000 people in the Idaho Falls, Idaho metropolitan area, making it the hub of the eastern section of the state. The city and its parks are pet-friendly (leashes required). The city is also a good jumping-off point for visits to Craters of the Moon National Monument, Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park, all of which, as part of the National Park system, have very restrictive pet policies. Idaho Falls' pet-friendly accommodations serve as convenient locations for travelers with their furry companions.
At the Red Lion Hotel on the Falls, pets are welcome for a fee of $20.00 a day. The green belt along the river just outside the motel is a convenient area for exercising pets. The motel features a pool, fitness center, restaurant and lounge.
