Jackson Hole retains a distinctive Wild West flair that many gravitate to — just look at the arch made of elk antlers that welcomes visitors to Town Square. And while it’s a year-round oasis for outdoor lovers with ample biking, rafting, hiking, skiing, and snowboarding opps, it really shines in the winter months thanks to being home to a whopping three ski areas: Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, Snow King Mountain Resort, and Grand Targhee Resort. However, it’s also got culture in spades: The National Museum of Wildlife Art, for example, features works by Andy Warhol and Georgia O’Keeffe. Whether you plan on skiing or strolling, and whether you’re visiting in the winter or summer, consider the amenity-packed The Lodge at Jackson Hole for your next stay. Ahead, our full review.

Done up in various hues of brown, the space features plenty of couches and plush seating, with an enormous roaring stone fireplace adorned by a moose head as the centerpiece.
