I arrived at this location at dusk and managed to capture this image with the rocks warmed but the last of the sunset sky. This Iconic image of Yellowstone National park was top of my 'must dos for Yellowstone" and it did not disappoint. I also attempted sunrise and another sunset that were not as rewarding - timing is everything. #Adventure #yellowstone #sunset #Artists #point Nikon D850 24-120mm @120mm, F13, ISO 31, 10sec.

The Ridgeline Hotel at Yellowstone, Ascend Hotel Collection

5/5 Excellent

Little surprises.

"The stray was great. The extras, like a free laundry cleaner supplied, free smores, and free waters were a nice touch. We were able to use the binoculars and a walking stick as well. All those little surprises were a nice touch. "

Lake Yellowstone Hotel & Cabins - Inside the Park

5/5 Excellent

"We stayed in the cabins next to the Yellowstone Hotel. I was initially worried the cabins were going to be too “rústic” or not updated. They were neither. Perfect location, away from some of the hustle and bustle of the park. Clean, comfortable, good heating. Recommendation: grab breakfast at the Fishing Bridge general store rather than the Lodge down the road. Also, do not expect WiFi, even at the lodge. "

Super 8 by Wyndham Gardiner/Yellowstone Park Area

5/5 Excellent

"We loved this hotel. It had a 3 queen room available which worked perfectly for our family. The room was big and spacious. They do not have breakfast but did provide muffins and juice. There is a cafe attached to the lobby. We ate breakfast there and the food was really good but we waited an hour for our food. The area was really fun and there were elk wandering all over the place. You could walk right by them and they didn’t even care. "

5/5 Excellent

"We were in unit 16 which is on the upper level. Very nicely renewed decor, a private deck with a scenic view of the river and mountains, two bedrooms with a spacious kitchen area. The parking was a bit tight with space only for 1 vehicle per unit. The main road passed just outsid the bedroom window, but didn't seem too noisy after 11:00. We really enjoyed stating there. "
