Signal Mountain Lodge

We stayed at the Signal Mountain Lodge in the waterfront rooms. The view were great and the room was spacious. The onsite restaurant was really good too. We also used the general store and the onsite laundry. The staff was always helpful and friendly. And the location is absolutely stunning, right on Jackson Lake with the Tetons as the backdrop, just fantastic!!

This review is not about the lodge or the facilities it's about the coffee shop in the lodge. The coffee was great! The ice cream was good! The vibe and service were fantastic, and we appreciate the welcoming energy from the staff, who were young and spry and full of life. The breakfast sandwiches are NOT heated when you order them. They are lukewarm and dry. I would highly suggest that management changes this... when I order a breakfast sandwich I expect it to be hot and ready. I had to source a microwave to heat my own sandwich. That's my only qualm.

We stayed the first 2 nights of the season and loved our lower lakeview cabin. We would return without hesitation. Kudos to Amy, Sloan, Bryan our servers at Trapper Grill in Signal Mountain Lodge. I had the trout fillet-was great, chicken marsala—sauce not well developed, sweet potato fries and quesadillas and classic burger were awesome. Each were very friendly and dinner was great. We saw a fox and known elk “Hollywood” in front of the cabin. Basic cooking, dishware, utensils were provided. Water pressure in the showers was fine and water temperature was great.

We stayed in the more affordable 2 queen country rooms. I didn’t find many reviews for this room beforehand, but we were pleasantly surprised. The rooms were super clean and had a fridge, microwave, and k-cup coffee maker. The beds were super comfortable. There is a box fan as well if it gets too warm. Having a gas station, convenience store, restaurant, and coffee/ice cream shop on site was perfect! The views from the lake were just a short walk away from the room. Highly recommend the float trip! Mark and Joe were knowledgeable and amazing river guides!

The location was great and the room was wonderful. The staff were not the friendliest. Additionally I would advise just staying in Yellowstone and driving down. I could have paid for three nights in the cabins at Old Faithful for the same price as one night in the Tetons. Food is also about 30% more. The 40 mile drive would be worth the savings. Great location, but not worth the price.
