Yes, it is worth going to. I too do not ski, and found Jackson Hole quite nice. We went in the summertime, and took a ride up to the top of the mountain, saw some great scenery! took a horseback ride, that was fun. even went whitewaterrafting!! the town itself is great! also if you like fishing, they have guides for that. And I got to take photo's of some elk. here is the number for Jackson Hole Lodge, its toll free,800-458-3866. the rates are anywhere from$119.00 to $189.00. Hope this number helpd some.

Absolutely yes!!! Grand Teton National Park is right near Jackson Hole. It is absolutely fantastic. The hiking and wildlife viewing are superb. Take a nature walk with a ranger. We took one to a bend in the river where we saw otters, bald eagles. The elk are everywhere and they are magnificent. Take the hike around Jenny Lake, or if you are more ambitious the one into Cascade Canyon. There is a wonderful little Indian museum. you can go on boat trips on the lake. Have a ball!

I stayed there an entire summer. Tons to do. Horseback riding, hiking/canoeing in Grand Teton Nat'l Park, white water rafting, Alpine Slide, Tramm at Teton Village, plays, Yellowstone Nat'l Park. The Wort is a nice hotel. The Bar J Ranch is an entertaining dinner show. Good luck.

Have taken famil (10 of us!) trips every summer. Beautiful place, much to do -- rent kayaks, boats, etc from Leisure sports -- we stay at Lower Slide Lake (the Gros Ventre area) in a "cabin" has dishwasher, micro, w&d and is on the lake -- very private (run by Jane Budge) great flyfishing, mountain biking, rafting, riding, just about anything you want -- enjoy

Jackson is great in winter without skiing. Cross-country skiing is worth trying, but even without thst you can enjoy good food, scenery, etc. Nice shops...Rent snowmobiles...Snowshoe in the park...
