Great Place for a Pitstop

Love's Travel Stop

Filled up and let the pooch loose in the big dog section. There’s a separate space for small dogs and grass adjacent for a leashed walk after! We didn’t use the wash station, but that’s a cool feature if you’ve got a grubby pup with you.

Quiet Spot

The Coffee Bar

Nice shady outdoor space to hangout with your pooch and enjoy a coffee. You can order online and pick up at a walk-up window to avoid leaving your dog alone outside.

Great Location

Holiday Inn Sioux Falls-City Centre by IHG

Our dogs were very welcome at this hotel in a great location. Not many options for late night pee breaks, so you'll need to take a little stroll around to find a bit of grass.

Jul. 30, 2021

Hang Inside and Out

Remedy Brewing Company

Dogs are welcome inside and out of this welcoming brewery in Sioux Falls. We walked here through the park and they serve some delicious beer on tap. The food isn't the best. There are water bowls for dogs outside and lots of space.

Natural Beauty to Enjoy with your Pooch

Custer State Park

The highlight of this incredible park was Sylvan Lake. Take a walk around the water and then dive into the water - it's incredible. Driving the Wildlife Loop was an experience, especially when Bagel first saw the bison.

Jul. 30, 2021

Shady Dog Park

Dog Park at Burns Park

This shady dog park is a great place to bring your dog to play off-leash on a sunny day. The park is divided into two sections, both are large. There's water for dogs, waste stations and a human bathroom just beyond the gates.

Jul. 30, 2021

Nice Place to Stop

The Little Willow Dog Park

This is a unique dog park that makes a great stopping point on a road trip. There are cool features like agility equipment and a dog statue that you can snap a picture in front of. The lawn is well kept and there's a covered area for humans to shelter under on hot days.

Jul. 30, 2021

Nice Seating Area

Shelby Dog Park

We enjoyed sitting on the benches in the center of the park and watching the pups play around us. There's a few shady trees and grassy (dusty) patches for playing fetch. Take a leashed walk around the park that surrounds the dog park afterwards and you might run into one of the resident deer.

Jul. 30, 2021

Popular and Pretty Park

Falls Park

Had a great walk around this popular park, which has a really unique rocky waterfall running through the center. Lots of families and other leashed dogs were there taking a walk, too.

Jul. 30, 2021

This Place is a Bit Corny!

The World's Only Corn Palace

There's not much for dogs at this weird tourist attraction, other than the grassy area beside it (which does have a waste station). It was absolutely slammed inside, so might be stressful for nervous pups.

Jul. 30, 2021

Otherworldly National Park

Badlands National Park

There's nowhere on earth that looks like Badlands. The drive through the rock formations is incredible and there are plenty of places to pull over and snap a pic of your pup. The trails aren't pet-friendly, but you can go for a walk on the grass next to the visitor center.

Jul. 30, 2021

Very Dog Friendly

Hotel Preston Nashville Airport

Made a last minute reservation to Hotel Preston and was pleasantly surprised to see lots of other dogs staying, too. There are grassy relief areas next to the car park and a dog park on the premises.
