Teton Springs Lodge – It’s a Magical Place in the Wintertime

It’s no wonder that over the years Teton Springs Lodge & Spa has been named “The Best Hotel in Idaho,” by US News & World Report. Recognized for its luxury accommodations, both hotel rooms and one and two-bedroom suites, this property located in the heart of Victor, Idaho has much more of a story to tell. Visitors can also book one of the luxury mountain log homes that dot the perimeter of this resort nestled on the west slope of the Tetons, in the grandest of settings. Teton Valley and the surrounding area draw visitors year-round for the world-class recreation, and proximity to Jackson Hole and Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. Winter is a particularly special season at Teton Springs. Strap on a pair of snow shoes or cross-country skis and find yourself in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest that borders the resort. Keep your eyes peeled as you follow the tracks of a winter hare as you’re likely to spot a variety of wildlife on this excursion. Deer, moose, Bald & Golden Eagles call this area home and are often seen cruising the Headwaters Golf Club fairways, now blanketed in snow. The Teton Range boast two of the Rocky Mountains best winter ski and snowboard destinations; Grand Targhee and Jackson Hole Mountain Resorts. Teton Spring Lodge guests can conveniently access both of these winter giants. Grand Targhee is cradled in the west slope of the Teton Mountains and offers two mountain peaks to explore with over 2,500 acres of skiable terrain. It’s the perfect place to find winter family vacation packages! Known for their spectacular views of the Tetons, quality and quantity of light, dry powder snow that falls each year, Targhee also has an impressive number of groomed slopes to delight every level of snow slider. Targhee also has gained a national reputation for its unique SnowCat Adventures experience. Targhee has carved out a section of mountain that is reserved exclusively for powder ski and snowboard excursions on wide-open slopes and bowels. Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, known more for its rugged and challenging terrain, has also created an impressive number of beginner and intermediate runs so everyone can experience this Wyoming icon.
