Jackson Travel Forum

Planning a trip to Jackson, just wondered if anyone has a reccomendations on whether May or September/early October is a better time to visit ( I heard it was SNOWING today)don't mind the cold but would like to hike, explore etc. Also, 3 nights 2 1/2 days-is it enough to see the area or would 4 nights 3 1/2 days be better.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

We are considering spending Thanksgiving in Jackson. Wife and two kids and I don't ski, so what other activities are available? Are restaurants open on Thanksgiving day? What is weather like at that time of year? Any ideas or advice would be helpful and appreciated!

My wife & I will be attending a wedding in Jackson in August. Since one of us is a smoker, a room with a balcony solves a lot of problems. Are there any hotels / motels in the local area that have rooms with a balcony?

We also plan on visiting Yellowstone following the wedding. Do you advise staying in Yellowstone or remaining in the Jackson hotel?

Thanks,

Does anybody know of one or two places I can go for some good live music? Preferrably jam band-ish.

Miamian decided that the children need to see snow. Have arranged for a condo to stay at from New Years through Jan 7. Do not know what else we are doing.
Kids 6(boy) & 15(girl)
None of us have skiied or visited western mountains in winter before...All advice you want to through our way is welcome:
1. New years eve suggestions?
2. Resteraunts?
3. Can you rent (or purchase cheaply) old fashoned sleds? -- And where can you use them best?
4. Daughter wants to try snowboarding -- Where should we get lessons? where should we rent?
5. We own no real winter clothes -- should we pick up stuff in Miami or on line or is there a cheap source in Jackson?
6. Sleigh ride -- recommended or not?
7. Same question -- dog sled?
8. Am I correct that a side trip to Yellowstone is not recommended this time of year (since we only have a week)
9. Any other thoughts? What should we do with our time?

Who has the best steak in Jackson, WY?

Can anyone recommend a good snowmobile outfitter? Also, can you recommend a good destination to go snowmobiling? I hope to be in Jackson near the end of March. I know that Yellowstone closes around March 12, so snowmobiling Yellowstone is out. What might be the next best option? Thanks.

I've been looking into several options as to where to stay and when to go....it seems there's more to do either before October or starting in December...is it generally a ghost town in October and November? Are there things to do? I just want to make sure that there will be places to eat, etc. It seems a lot of the places close in September. Thanks!

We are traveling to Jackson for Christmas and want to rent ski equipment for 2 adults for 3 days. What is the best place and about how much will it cost? We plan to ski at Teton Village but will be staying in town. How much is it to rent skis at Teton Village?

Hello...

My fiance and I are planning our honeymoon for October of 2007...how fast do places normally book up? Any information you can give me on great restaurants, attractions, etc would be appreciated. Also...has anyone ever stayed or are you familiar with the Wagon Wheel Village (wagonwheelvillage.com)? We're possibly thinking of staying at one of the condos there. Thanks a lot!

Hello everyone!!!

I took a short-term job at the Grand Teton's starting in mid-August.
Cheapest flight I can find is for around $380.
I am trying to find a relatively cheap flight into Jackson from Orlando, Florida. Does anyone have any suggestions on airline searches?!?!

Any assistance is greatly appreciated...

Happy Travelling~

We will be traveling next summer to Jackson and will be driving. We would like to know what is the best route to go from Jackson to Cody?

I am planning to visit Yellowstone and Grand Teton National parks in September.

Can someone recommend a nice, medium-priced hotel not too far from Town Square in Jackson Hole, Wyoming?
thanks Jeannette

Hi and greetings from Ireland,

My wife and I are arriving in Jackson July 30 2004 and need to fly out of Cody on August 4. I have tried a number of car rental agencies on the internet but have been unable to find one which will allow a pickup in Jackson and dropoff in Cody. Do you know of an agency that allows this?

We plan to visit The Tetons and Yellowstone but believe that it is unlikely that public transport, if any, will allow us to see and do what we hope to.

Regards,

Ed. Morgan

Anyone know where you can find a motel near Jackson Hole or Yellowstone area for less than $80 per night? No luxuries necessary. Would like to hear from someone who's been there. Thanks much, from po' rednecks from Apopka, Florida.

Any of you stayed at Alpine Motel? Not Alpine House, but the motel that is supposed to be economy and cost less. How much do they charge per night? I'm trying to find a way I can afford to see the Grand Tetons.

I am looking for any suggestions for a decent and fairly inexspensive hotel (or motel) in the heart of the town of Jackson. We actually don't ski and we'll just be passing through for a night or two but we would still like something in the heart of the town. Any help would be great. Thanks...

Hi all: We will be flying into Jackson and plan to camp at Grand Teton and Yellowstone. Before we leave Jackson we would like to know a place (like a Walmart) we can get food and supplies (propane, wood ice) any ideas?

I will be skiing Jackson Hole, WY over New Years and am looking for recommendations on a good new year's eve hangout. Nothing fancy for this cowboy. And I am not sure the place I am staying has a hot tub, so is there some place to go to soak apres ski, preferably outside so I get snow in my hair?
