This historic, rugged stone-and-wood lodge close to the amphitheater's rim offers western-inspired rooms with semiprivate balconies or porches in two motel-style buildings; suites in the historic inn; and cozy, beautifully designed lodgepole pine–and–stone cabins, some with cathedral ceilings and gas fireplaces. Horseback rides into the park's interior can be arranged in the lobby, and there's both a full-service restaurant and a pizzeria and coffee shop on the property.

  • Steps from canyon rim and trails
  • Lodge is steeped in history and has loads of personality
  • Cabins have fireplaces and exude rustic charm

Cons

  • Closed in winter
