Tetons alternative and Yellowstone
Posted on 2/25/25 at 1:57 pm

We have a cabin booked for 4 nights in June in between Cody and Yellowstone park entrance. We have two nights prior to arriving there that we were looking at spending in Jackson Hole and seeing the Tetons. However, the lodging cost has us second guessing this decision. What would be an alternative to spending two days/nights prior to arriving in Cody? We will be coming up from Amarillo, TX by car. Thanks.

Look up The Hostel in Jackson Hole. Cheap for the area and does what you need it to do.
I've stayed there twice and really enjoyed it.

It depends on your driving route, but Steamboat Springs or another Colorado Mountain town would be fun for 2 nights. Steamboat has some fun river activities/Hot Springs/hiking, etc.

Look at Teton Village. we stayed in a condo there a couple of years ago and it was great and cheaper than in JH.

There's a Hampton Inn in Jackson just south of town. We have stayed there before and it is more expensive than most Hampton Inns, but its still little cheaper than lodging near the sqaure.

Depending on what you are looking to do but Pinedale is a good place for a couple days. You could get into the Wind River Range but it will probably be snow or mud up there. Thermopolis is cool for a day.
If Bear Tooth Hwy is open you could go to Red Lodge.
Personally, I would suck it up and stay as close to Jackson as I could afford to see the Tetons. The other places are great but they aren't the Tetons.

Another option may be to stay on the west side - likely in or around Driggs. If you guys are into mountain biking, Targhee is a great option. I've done that and had a great time. You look at the backside of the Tetons from the top of Targhee.
There's a decent amount of hiking around there too where you can hike up around the backside of the Tetons. Another good hike is Darby Canyon up to Wind Cave. That doesn't get into the Tetons, but it's a great hike nonetheless. We brought a cooler and some chairs that we left in the truck and lugged it to the creek at the trailhead. Dipped our feet in that cold water after a long hike.
