Elk Refuge Inn

Elk Refuge Inn is a hotel in Jackson, Wyoming, located at 1755 U.S. Highway 89/191. The property sits adjacent to the National Elk Refuge, about 2 miles north of downtown Jackson Hole, within a 5-minute drive of Grand Teton National Park and 10 minutes from the airport. It holds a rating of 4.40.

The inn offers 25 king rooms and suites, many with patios or private balconies facing the National Elk Refuge and Sleeping Indian mountain. Rooms include high-speed internet access, flat-screen TVs, microwaves, coffeemakers, and kitchenettes. Guests are welcomed with animal watching, storytelling sessions, and recommendations for local dining, shopping, and family activities. Winter reservations are accepted, timed to the season when thousands of elk descend on the refuge, along with bison, bald eagles, trumpeter swans, bighorn sheep, and occasional bear sightings. A summer advance booking discount of 18 percent is available for stays booked at least 30 days ahead and completed by October 31; a deposit equal to the full cost of the stay is collected at booking, and reservations under that promotion are fully refundable when canceled at least 72 hours before arrival. Reservations can be made by phone at +1 307-200-0981.

The hotel's setting along U.S. Highway 89/191 places guests against the foothills of the National Elk Refuge, with Grand Teton and Yellowstone country just south of the property.

Guests consistently rate the Elk Refuge Inn well, and that positive feedback reflects the experience of staying at the edge of the refuge while remaining minutes from downtown Jackson.
