[QUOTE="Billy Clyde, post: 2742449, member: 73690"] The place we stayed was a cabin about 8-10 minutes out of town. IDK the specific acreage, but no other homes in sight and walked on the road in the evening with no cars coming by. Jackson just strikes me as another semi-tacky tourist town that was nice before it got overrun, like Eureka Springs or Santa Fe. The accommodations I saw resembled a run-down boardinghouse for absurd prices. I think they get away with that because people are so focused on the recreation opportunities they don't care as much about getting a nice place to stay for a reasonable price. Driggs had little in the way of a proper downtown, but a large grocery store that was on par with Central Market, or even better. There were only a couple nice restaurants in town, but that's not a priority for me, as I like to cook. There were hike and bike trails that extended several miles out from town, a nice ski shop/outfitter, a ski mountain about 20 minutes from town and a national park about 15 minutes from town where we hiked all day in spectacular scenery and only saw a group of Elk hunters on horseback. The "cabin" where we stayed was nearly new, had a kitchen and bathrooms that were on par with what you'd find in a $500k house in Fort Worth, and cost $100 per night, compared with$300+ per night for a one-room dump in Jackson. As for the view, we were unaware it was the "wrong" side of the Tetons, we just thought it was beautiful. [/QUOTE]
