It is truly a paradise. It is a place that is hard to leave, and easy to come back to; there aren’t many who can come over Teton Pass for the first, or the thousandth, time and not experience a great feeling of wonder. Yet for all its wild environs, Jackson is a cosmopolitan town: you can get anywhere from here, and back again. Take a limousine, a taxi, a rental car, an aeroplane, even a horse – Jackson has it all! Direct air service here is highly seasonal, with direct flights from Chicago, Dallas, and Atlanta only operating in the summer and ski season, but flights from Denver and Salt Lake City all year round.
This is the ideal destination for your winter holidays, offering endless activities such as skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, sleigh rides, dog sledding, helicopter skiing, ice skating and winter camping. With the highest continuous vertical rise in the country and over 2,500 acres of wonderfully varied terrain, the skiing and snowboarding are legendary in Jackson Hole.
There are services and specialists of every kind in Jackson Hole, from crib delivery to in-home caterers, personal photographers to personal trainers, pharmacies and physicians to florists and food delivery… pretty much everything you could possibly contemplate needing during a holiday. Jackson Hole also offers an incredible culinary adventure for its residents and guests with its many fine restaurants, personal chefs, prepared foods, and market delivery services.
There are fabulous boutiques, art galleries galore, designer shops, bookstores, chocolatiers and a farmer’s market during the summer, stocked with home grown food. Jackson has a lot of Wild West flair as well, expressed in wooden sidewalks; antler arches on each corner of the town square, stores selling cowboy boots, ten-gallon hats, saddles and handmade twig chandeliers.
Jackson is a sophisticated and elegant town, a gold nugget in the great wilds of Wyoming. The restaurants and nightlife you’ll find here are outstanding – from outdoor, mountainside dining to candlelit restaurants offering haute cuisine, from bison burgers to pheasant with truffles. It’s one of the reasons we love Jackson so much – there are so many fabulous places to eat. The nightlife also offers treats from live music at The Mangy Moose to the plays and concerts at the Centre for the Arts, there is always something going on in the Jackson Hole after-hours' scene as well.
