Teton Tree House Bed & Breakfast

Who could resist a place called A Teton Tree House, on Heck of a Hill Road? It's a whimsical, multi-level playhouse almost hidden on a forested slope. Fuschia fireweed and creamy columbine greet you as you ascend the gentle 95-step climb up into the bowers of this aboreal retreat. "This started out as a little cabin for my wife, Chris, and me," says innkeeper Denny Becker. "But I just kept adding on." With a friendly, wide-open Wyoming smile, he will take you on a tour along labyrinthine hallways, on stairs that curve up and down four levels, and past six guest rooms where the forest presses into windows and rough lodgepole pine walls seem to mirror the outside.

Location
In this sylvan setting, it's hard to believe that the busy tourist town of Jackson Hole with its fine Western art galleries, cowboy bars, and upscale restaurants, is only eight miles down the road, and Grand Teton National Park several miles to the north.

Accommodations
Six guest rooms await you. All the rooms have excellent beds, private baths, private decks, window seats and fantastic views! With a room up here and down there and around that corner, its a little like entering one's childhood fantasy. The Tree House has several levels of decks and an outdoor hot tub available for guests.

Amenities
Your hosts, who are 30-year locals, guides and travelers, delight in sharing information! Former wilderness guides, they have lots of ideas for the day's activities. Some guests may decide on a daylong trip through Yellowstone National Park or a drive along the nearby benchland above the cottonwood-lined Snake River. An afternoon could be spent hiking the trail around Jenny Lake or up into the ragged peaks of the Grand Teton Mountains. In the evening, a guest at the Tree House might curl up with a book in front of the two-story adobe fireplace. Or, test their skill at chess or Scrabble.

Meals
Awake to the tempting aroma of baking and join with other guests to indulge in fresh fruit, hot porridge and a sampler of muffins. All our breakfasts are heart-smart, low cholesterol and delicious! Our own homemade granola is even available.
