Market Overview
Tetonia, Idaho had 2,357 active short-term rental listings as of the latest snapshot, split between Airbnb (551), Vrbo (235), and 1,571 properties listed on both platforms, an extraordinarily large number relative to the town’s own population of just 308 residents. This reflects Tetonia’s role as a small agricultural gateway town whose STR market draws from the broader Teton Valley vacation-rental economy (800-plus vacation rentals valley-wide) rather than the incorporated town limits alone. The market posted a $593.68 average daily rate (ADR) and 83.21% occupancy in June 2026, generating average monthly revenue of $12,632 per listing. All three headline metrics moved favorably or held steady year over year: occupancy rose 5.42%, revenue climbed 10.53%, while ADR dipped slightly (down 1.70%).
Entire-place listings dominate at 2,280 (96.7% of supply), with 76 private-room listings and 1 shared-room listing. By bedroom count, 3-bedroom properties lead at 640 listings, followed closely by 2-bedroom (634), 1-bedroom (485), 4-bedroom (315), and 5-bedroom (278).
Tetonia sits on the north end of Teton Valley, Idaho’s ‘quiet side’ of the Tetons, about 50 miles northeast of Idaho Falls. Visitors are primarily outdoor-recreation travelers headed to Grand Targhee Resort, which averages roughly 500 inches of annual snowfall, along with mountain bikers, hikers, anglers on the Teton River, and travelers on the 69-mile Teton Scenic Byway. The valley markets itself as a less-crowded, lower-cost alternative to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, just over Teton Pass, with Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks within day-trip range.
Booking data shows a long 104.66-day average lead time and a 3.97-night average length of stay. StaySTRA’s overall market score for Tetonia is 66.95, with revenue growth an especially strong sub-component at 88.55 and seasonality the softest at 45.81.

Investment Analysis
Tetonia’s ADR tiers span an especially wide range for a small market: the market-wide average of $593.68 sits below the entire-home tier at $606.68, professionally managed listings at $705.33, and the luxury tier at $1,287.96, a $694.28 gap and roughly 117.0% premium over the market average, more than doubling the market rate.
Revenue by property type is tightly clustered relative to the wide ADR spread: houses average $13,700 per month, ahead of entire-place listings overall at $12,926 and apartments at $12,246, a comparatively modest 11.9% spread between apartment and house revenue.
The trailing-year trend is strongly positive: occupancy rose 5.42% and revenue climbed 10.53% even as ADR slipped 1.70%, suggesting rising booking volume more than compensated for a modest rate pullback. StaySTRA’s revenue-growth score of 88.55 out of 100 is the strongest of the six tracked market-score components, and the market’s investability score of 72.55 and rental-demand score of 79.05 are both solidly above the midpoint.

Booking Insights
Tetonia guests book an average of 104.66 days in advance, a very long lead time reflecting how far ahead ski-season and summer-recreation trips to Grand Targhee and Teton Valley are typically planned. This extended booking window gives operators substantial runway, more than three months, to adjust pricing well ahead of both the July peak and the December holiday rate premium.
Average length of stay is 3.97 nights, a shorter stay typical of ski weekends and multi-day outdoor recreation trips rather than week-long vacations. This shorter stay length means higher turnover between guests, and operators should weigh cleaning and turnover logistics carefully, especially during the compressed winter holiday window when ADR peaks but occupancy is only moderate.
Given the long lead time, operators can plan pricing strategy far in advance, but should build in enough flexibility to capture last-minute demand as popular ski and summer weeks fill in closer to the date.
Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals are permitted in Tetonia, and only a general city business license is required, obtained at City Hall; there is no STR-specific permit, per StaySTRA’s area profile (last updated July 15, 2026). Teton County has no zoning requirements specific to short- or long-term rentals unless the use qualifies as a Bed and Breakfast (owner-occupied, 1 to 3 guest rooms, stays under 14 days) or a Campground/RV Park, both of which require a county Planning Department permit; a standard whole-home STR does not trigger either category.
Unlike neighboring Driggs and Victor, which add a 3% local lodging tax and, in Driggs, an $80/$50 annual STR permit, Tetonia and unincorporated Teton County levy no additional local lodging tax and require no dedicated STR permit. Operators must register with the Idaho State Tax Commission and collect 6% state sales tax plus 2% state Travel and Convention tax, 8% total.
Statewide, Idaho HB 583, signed March 16, 2026 and effective July 1, 2026, preempts local rules that single out STRs, barring cities and counties from requiring owner residency, professional management, extra insurance, usage reporting, added parking, or STR-only fire measures. Cities may still require baseline safety items (smoke and CO alarms, extinguishers, escape ladders) and standard building-code occupancy limits, provided they apply equally to all homes. There is no owner-occupancy requirement, no primary-residence requirement, and no annual night cap. Enforcement is described as minimal.
Market Comparison
Tetonia’s 83.21% occupancy and $593.68 ADR both run far above the roughly 55% national STR median and $220 national median ADR respectively, the ADR more than two and a half times the national benchmark. This reflects Tetonia’s position within a premium mountain-resort submarket adjacent to Grand Targhee and within reach of Jackson Hole-area demand, commanding rates far above a typical U.S. market.
The market’s top property managers include Outpost, the clear leader with 286 listings and 24,216 reviews (4.793 rating), followed by Rendezvous Mountain (121 listings, 3,607 reviews, 4.819 rating), Jackson Hole Resort Lodging (120 listings, 4,426 reviews, 4.776 rating), Teton Valley Property Management (98 listings, 6,081 reviews, 4.858 rating), and Teton Homestead Property Management (81 listings, 3,909 reviews, 4.915 rating, the highest-rated of the top five). Together these five operators manage 706 listings, about 30.0% of the market’s 2,357 total active listings.
