We are planning a trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton in the middle of June we are flying into Jackson. I need suggestions on how to divide the time between the parks--we only have a week as well as suggestions about hotels, activities etc. Appreciate your help!
Planning help
You will start off in Jackson. We stayed at the Wyoming Inn and ate at Gunbarrel Restuarant. You could then go toward Old Faithful in YNP and stay the night in West Yellowstone. The next day head toward Mammoth and make your way toward Cody. Cody has great museums and the rodeo. We are staying at Cody Cowboy Village this year. You can then make your way thru Eastern entrance to YNP and then to Jackson. If you have time do a Snake River Raft trip. We took one last year with Barker-Ewing.Other TA members have posted other suggestions so check posts.
Planning help
If you plan to stay anywhere in YNP then make reservations quickly. Many of the sites are already booked.
If you have a week, I would plan on 2 nights in the Tetons and the balance of your time in Yellowstone. I think with only a week, I would skip Cody this time.
If your flight arrives in Jackson relatively early, you could consider driving to Yellowstone, or you could take it easy and stay the first in Jackson before moving on.
If you are unable to stay in the park, West Yellowstone is not necessarily a bad base. We used it 10 years ago and didn%26#39;t mind the driving. Half the fun of Yellowstone is getting from place to place. You never know what wildlife you will find.
In Jackson, I really recommend Buckrail Lodge. In West Yellowstone, we stayed at the Lazy G. It was very clean, but very dated. The owners are quite nice, and the price is very CHEAP!!
Enjoy your trip!
