Jenny Lake Lodge

Great Location, Great Room, but mostly what made it best, was Great Staff in all areas of the Lodge. It was the 5 year anniversary of when I proposed to my now wife at Jenny Lake and you all made it very special for us. And would like to give an extra shout out to Ruby, Emma, and Toni that really went the extra mile to make our trip so special and memorable.

Absolutely phenomenal experience. It may seem relatively expensive at first but your stay at the Jenny Lake Lodge includes a full breakfast and a 5 course phenomenal meal each night, complimentary horse back riding, bikes, kayaks, fantastic location in the Grand Teton mountains and walking/hiking trails right outside the door which when added up make it a true value and a once in a lifetime experience. The cabins are very rustic, but that is part of the wonderful charm of the lodge and overall stay. the service and staff could not be nicer or better or more accommodating. We absolutely loved our stay and hope to be able to get back to the Jenny Lake Lodge in the near future.

Don't go there - it was a huge disappointment for the family! We had a confirmed booking and had arrived especially in the afternoon to go with the children to the lake. At the reception the booking email was confirmed but claimed that the email was wrong. This would have been known for a long time (our booking was 9 months ago!) but failed to send another mail with the correction. Conclusion for us: 40 miles extra drive, 2 hours and thus lost the afternoon at the lake. And they didn't even apologize. Very disappointing!

I have stayed at Jenny Lake Lodge multiple times in the past and was delighted to learn there was a late seating to the general public while visiting. I was sad that the quality just was not there this time round. I watched the faces of other diners who also had some of the entrees we had ordered with the same response. The scallops smelled so bad that we exchanged them for another appetizer. Neither the server or his assistant had picked up the scallop plate. The smell was so strong you could not even enjoy your next two courses on the prix fixe menu until they were eventually bussed. That type of cuisine will not sustain the business given the clientele who seek out JLL. The desert however, was excellent, yet a $400 bill with wine and gratuity for two should come with a far better guest experience.

This was our second trip to stay at the Jenny Lake Lodge...the first one being 8 years ago. We had such an enjoyable time the first time, we made a point of returning when we were back in the area. The cabins here are really comfortable and all have some form of a view of the mountains. The staff is some of the best you will ever encounter at any resort...not to mention at lodging within a National Park. The extras like horseback riding and daily events are really special. And the creme de la creme is the promise of a gourmet breakfast and five course dinner at the AAA Four-Diamond restaurant. But, if I am honest and avoid trying to convince myself that I didn't get taken, I have to say that both dinners we had on this latest visit were actually a bit disappointing. Maybe it was the nights we visited. Maybe we made the wrong choices. But overall, I don't believe that the meals any of the three of us ate were worth the $115 price tag (before drinks and tips) that they have affixed to the five-course meal. Had the servers not been so amazing, I probably would have (and probably should have) complained. Nonetheless, this is only one part of the stay at Jenny Lake Lodge, but it is a big part of why we decided to return. I will add that the breakfasts were quite phenomenal...but they are just breakfast. Hopefully it was just a couple bad nights and not the norm. And hopefully others reviewing the food aren't giving fabulous marks simply because of the rather high price tag...because nobody wants to feel like they overpaid for something, do they?
