Why the Owner Chose Jackson Hole
This area of Idaho, Wyoming and Montana is just gorgeous. There are so many beautiful areas to visit - mountains, waterfalls, rivers, fields of wildflowers throughout the summer, great snow all winter - you will want to be outdoors every day. Late spring is the best time to see the animals with their new offspring, and October brings the spectacular golden "quaking" leaves on the aspen trees.
You turn towards the mountains here to arrive at the cabin. The cabin is 3 miles from this turn. Email for details.
Owner's Map of Jackson Hole
We bought this cabin as a vacation get away for family and friends. Since then we have had the opportunity to live here full time for a year! Now we are working in California, but visit as often as we can. Our family uses the cabins often, so the kitchens are well equipped and the beds are comfy. Jim does real estate consulting and management for Jones Lang LaSalle, and Ginger teaches workshops on Mail Art. Check out her website at bookjots.com. We love to hike and kayak and cook dinners for the family. We have two grown children who live in San Francisco and Oakland.
