A Pet-Friendly Hotel in Boulder, Colorado
At Foot of the Mountain, Boulder’s two best sides come together in one stay: trails and creekside air to the west, downtown energy to the east. Start the morning with a walk near Boulder Creek, head out for a leashed hike at Chautauqua or Sunshine Canyon, then wind down on a dog-friendly patio. It’s an easygoing Boulder getaway with a little more character—and a lot more mountain access.

Places to Explore With Your Dog
Boulder Creek Path
Just across from the motel, Boulder Creek Park and the Boulder Creek Path make an easy first stop for dogs who are ready to stretch their legs. The path runs 5.5 miles from Boulder Canyon through downtown, making it ideal for a casual morning walk or a longer creekside stroll.
Chautauqua
For a classic Boulder outing, head to Chautauqua for iconic Flatirons views and a wide network of foothill trails. Dogs are allowed here on a hand-held leash unless they meet the city’s Voice and Sight requirements, making it one of Boulder’s signature spots for a scenic hike with your pup.
Valmont Dog Park
If your dog needs a real play session, Valmont Dog Park is one of Boulder’s go-to off-leash city options. It has separate fenced areas for large and small dogs, seasonal water access, and is open from dawn to dusk.
Places to Eat & Sip
River and Woods
For a relaxed neighborhood meal, River and Woods invites well-behaved dogs to join their owners on the Pearl Street side patio. It’s a great post-hike dinner option with a Boulder feel that fits the Foot of the Mountain experience.
Foolish Craig’s
If brunch is more your speed, Foolish Craig’s is a longtime downtown favorite. Visit Boulder highlights it as a dog-friendly patio stop, making it an easy option for breakfast or lunch with your pup nearby.
Avery Brewing
For a bigger Boulder outing, Avery Brewing offers a dog-friendly patio and beer garden alongside its taproom and restaurant menu. It’s a great choice for an afternoon hang after exploring town or the trails.
