Jackson Hole Customer Reviews

An experience, capped off by the accommodation. Slopes were wilder than probably expected for an American resort as few were groomed but this suited our interest. The 'Ski Club of Great Britain' have a guide available. The lady we skied with in Jackson was very good. We joined the club for just £70 or so for the two of us and enjoyed 4 days of guiding with just two others - very worth while to get to the better slopes.

I found all the advice I was given prior to departure was not only first class but very accurate. We stayed in the town of Jackson Hole rather than Teton Village and this was definitely the right decision. Ski hire was very expensive but we had the option to buy rather than rent and this saved approx 100 dollars!!! The 'light' continental breakfast served at Parkway Inn was very substantial. The bus service from very near the hotel to the resort was easy, punctual and inexpensive. Overall we had an extremely good holiday with some challenging skiing, good food and extremely polite, friendly and helpful people wherever we went.

Jackson Hole has a variety of ski runs, but not too many for the beginner. Not all the runs are groomed overnight which makes the most used ungroomed runs slightly difficult to negotiate because of moguls. On the whole the resort is reasonably quiet with no real queues for the lifts etc. The runs are long and many are very wide but there are nice long traversing trails which take you through the trees. Overall the skiing is varied and interesting. Unlike Europe there are not many restaurants on the slopes, but I suppose this is due to the fact that the slopes in USA are much quieter that Europe, so the need for more eating places is not there.
