The Grand Canyon is one of those trips you don’t want to make without your best travel buddy. Dogs are welcome in certain areas of the park, including the Rim Trail and developed sections above the South Rim, but the real magic happens when you find a hotel that makes them feel as welcome as you are.

Just under an hour from the South Rim, Williams offers easy park access, walkable streets, and plenty of outdoor space for your dog to stretch their legs. It’s also more relaxed than staying inside the park, with pet-friendly dining patios and nearby trails in Kaibab National Forest.

We designed Trailborn Grand Canyon to be a place where dogs are more than tolerated—they’re part of the experience. Our pet-friendly rooms feature durable flooring, easy access to outdoor areas, and thoughtful touches like water bowls and welcome treats upon request. We also offer a $35 per night pet package that includes a dog bowl in-room, a Trailborn bandana, and treats to make their stay as enjoyable as yours.

• Spacious rooms with premium bedding
• Easy access to grassy outdoor areas
• Nearby walking trails for morning or evening strolls
• Pet-friendly outdoor seating at Miss Kitty’s Steakhouse

• Know the rules: Dogs must be leashed at all times and are not allowed below the canyon rim.
• Bring water: The high desert climate can be dry—pack enough for you and your dog.
• Plan pet-friendly activities: Explore the Rim Trail, wander through Williams’ historic Route 66, or relax at pet-friendly cafes.

Yes, but only in certain areas. Dogs are allowed on the Rim Trail and in developed areas above the South Rim. They are not permitted on trails below the rim or in most park buildings.

No. Pets are not allowed on park shuttle buses, so plan to drive yourself to trailheads or designated areas.

Kaibab National Forest offers miles of dog-friendly trails, and downtown Williams has sidewalks, parks, and patios perfect for a casual stroll.

Leash, waste bags, collapsible water bowl, and enough water for both of you. In summer, consider paw protection for hot pavement.

Our location in Williams puts you close to the park and right next to attractions like the Canyon Coaster. After a day of adventure, you can unwind by the fire pit, enjoy the pool and hot tub, or simply rest up in a quiet, design-forward room while your dog snoozes by your side.
