No rooms, suites or cabins have televisions, cable, Internet service, radios or any type of cooking facilities. Rooms and cabins are all nonsmoking. Lodging is extremely crowded during the summer.

Author's Most Memorable Moment

I've stayed in Yellowstone many times. My most memorable moment was when I woke up very early one morning and went outside my cabin. Greeting me was a doe and her twins. Instead of running away quickly, they stayed for several minutes. Looking into their liquid brown eyes was indeed special. Other great moments were catching rainbow trout, my favorite fish.
