Jake and Glenn are the cool guys that run and maintain the property. They have single cabins , family cabins, and a wheelchair accessible cabin. The property is beautiful with fresh flowers and is well kept. The cabins are very clean and well decorated with mountain wildlife themes. Each cabin comes equipped with a small stove, microwave, and fridge . The beds were very comfortable. I slept like a baby. We got a two bedroom cabin and it was priced very reasonably. Next fishing trip, I will be staying here again .

Niki Bates is the Best! Thanks to The Lodge at Palisades…read moreCreek for supporting guide Niki Bates in her support of The South Fork Initiative, an organization dedicated to preserving and enhancing the South Fork of the Snake River. I bid on and won a day of guided Flyfishing on the South Fork donated by Niki Bates because she cares about this beautiful river and fishery. Our day started with a bang as 2 minutes after launching the boat a huge lightning strike forced us to pull over and wait for the storm to pass. It rained on and off all day but that didn't stop us or the fish. What a day of fishing! Niki put us on fish and knew just where to keep the boat so that our casts would be most effective. My son and I had a blast catching a lot of fish and a lot of very nice sized fish! And best of all, 75% of our catches were on the big dry fly! Whether it was the salmon fly or the golden stones, watching those cutthroats rise like a submarine to engulf the fly is an experience unmatched in any other fishery. We enjoyed Niki's knowledge, professionalism and overall commitment to having a great day on the river! I can't recommend her highly enough and recommend that you jump at the chance to fish with her. What a day! We'll be back to fish with Niki!!

The cabins give you a sense of being away and alone, but spoiled with beautiful surroundings and amenities. We love meeting other guests and hearing stories about their fishing and adventures - no one is a stranger there! I am not an expert anger, I am a novice at best, but every year I feel a bit more accomplished as I learn something new with each trip on the river. I can thank our fishing Guides for that! This year Josh and Cruz were awesome!! It bears mentioning that everyone was great, a shout out to all the staff who make this such a wonderful place to visit, and a special thank you to Charles, Tonia, Shayde and Justin who always make us feel so welcome!

Jackson is a 20ish min drive away, or if you go north toward Yellowstone you can pass along the scenic byway and stop along any of the turnouts for INCREDIBLE pictures, including the famous Mormon row. Go into the park toward Jenny lake for some of the most iconic spots, or a solid hike. Delta lake is a hard hike but it's STUNNING, and of course the hike +- the boat ride across Jenny lake to Cascade canyon and hidden falls is as stunning as they come. Oxbow bend is gorgeous for views and chilling too, and I saw folks fishing over in that area. Be aware that the lot at Jenny lake gets INSANELY full despite the fact that it is MASSIVE and has an overflow area, just cause the park is so popular. It is absolutely worth it. Do not miss this park - it lives rent free in my head and every time the weather is good outside I think about hiking in the Tetons!

For an after hike spa and relaxation experience, Granite Springs Pool may be the spot for you…read more There are some great hikes in this area and afterwards a Granite Springs visit is a must. You'll travel south from Jackson to the Hoback Junction, traffic circle 3/4 turn. Take US 191 12 miles until you reach gravel/dirt Granite Creek Road taking a left. Do not go by the Yelp address listed as it's incorrect, and I haven't been able to find the specific address. Be prepared for an 11 mile bumpy ride while viewing gorgeous Granite Creek running through the Gros Ventura Mountains in the Bridger Teton National Forest. At the end of the road Granite Springs pool awaits you. Check for current pricing before you go, only open in summer (by car) and winter (by snowmobile, skis or dog sled). Also, important to note, you'll have no cell service within this area. Soak your cares away while enjoying the gorgeous Mountain View and the evergreen forest.

Small cars would not be recommended because there are tons large holes. The drive continue on the road and you will dead end into this destination. Walking up to the springs. Looks like a something out of a bad movie. Or the movie Vacation. Kinda scary or weird. Run down with shacks and satellite dishes. Once inside. There is no food or drinks allowed. So don't try it or you will get yelled at. The cost is for 1 hour. So plan on being booted after your hour. There are no towels or enough chairs. So be prepared to sit on the ground. The pool is cracked and run down. But once inside the water it is quite enjoyable. Our family had fun and it was a good experience. I would recommend based on the fact it was a fun time to get to swim in a natural environment. Overlook the pool cracks and moss growing it was worth the drive.

Great location | Friendly, helpful staff…read more We stayed here one night on our Yellowstone-Grand Tetons roadtrip. We took site 71, which was close to the front office and one shower location. This is such a cute little spot with nice cabins. The setup is really nice, allowing people to hangout at the fire pit right outside cabins and gather for some games too. Check in was quick and easy. Maintenance showed us where our site was. It is a level gravel spot that fits a 24ft sprinter van, plus hookups. The showers are smaller at the front office, but I didn't mind because I'm used to small KOA stalls. These are individual bathrooms. There are four and some have chairs and others don't. I must've showered at the right time because it was incredibly clean. Good ventilation too. The other location for showers is near the pet park area. There are 6 spacious rooms/stalls with a sink and mirror. Overall, this is a cute place that is well maintained. The staff work hard and are very helpful. It's just a short drive to downtown and the cowboy coffee drive thru.

They light fires every night and it has a nice feel to it. The cabin was tight for the 4 of us, but it was cozy and we all slept great. We were at the Tetons and in Jackson most of the time anyhow. It is about 15 minutes from Jackson. It's right on the snake river and walking down there was a treat. The place is very quiet and the water pressure in the shower was GREAT! I'd stay here again!

In other words, this creek is gorgeous--you must see it. I came to Jackson for a retreat over the weekend with Junior League CARE Fair directors and chairpersons. Every time we left and returned to our cabin, we got to enjoy this view. We even had the opportunity to walk alongside the creek. It was very easy and the view will vanish every worry you have. There are several well made bridges that you can walk/drive over as well. Area is very clean with crisp blue water. It didn't look too deep, but it was so perfect that to even dip my feet in the water seemed offensive to mother nature. Not to say I wasn't tempted. Overall, I probably wouldn't drive 5 hours just for this one creek, but the surrounding contains so many scenic opportunities that you have to hit up this place if you're in the area. You just have to. Happy travels, my Yelpers!

Situated deep within the Gros Ventre Mountains east of Jackson and Hoback Junction, Granite Creek -…read morethe campground, the waterfall, and the hot springs - are pure Wyoming outdoors magic. Sure, the mountains here don't captivate you with their granite-tipped titillation, and there aren't the glacial lakes that you'll be mesmerized by in Grand Teton National Park, nor will you mistake this area for the magnificent Wind River Mountains, the Bighorns, or the Snowy Range, but my oh my, Granite Creek is one pretty, pretty piece of nature. The USFS campground is one of the best I've found in the northern Rockies, with great sites overlooking the creek and sheltered by pines and awash in wildflowers from mid-June to August. The Granite Creek Falls are powerful to behold: not ethereal like Yosemite or awesome like Niagra or Multnomah, but what they lack in vertical elevation and volume they make up for in up-close-and-personal intimacy. You can literally dip your toes in the raging white torrents that fall from above into a creek that is so pure and clean that moose, elk, bear, and cranes simply love to stay here. You'll also find a superb CCC hot springs up the road, where you and your friends/family can soak in bliss while enjoying easy access to the Gros Ventre wilderness a mere mile or so up the main trail that follows the creek to its source. If you are in the Jackson Hole area, a side trip to Granite Creek - on dirt and gravel roads well maintained by the Forest Service - offers you another glance at Wyoming's wild lands that you won't find at Grand Teton. The falls are a great side trip, as are the hot springs, and the campground is well suited for car campers and RVers alike. All in all, this is a part of the Cowboy State that I never tire of seeing, season in, season out. Who needs to stay in Jackson for hundreds of bucks when affordable, adorable places like this are so close and enticing?
