Yellowstone National Park is the birthplace of “America’s best idea,” the first national park in the world, and routinely one of the most-visited in the country. The park itself sits atop a highly active supervolcano and is home to the highest concentration of geothermal features on the planet (think powerful geysers, steamy hot springs, and bubbling mudpots). It’s also a fantastic place to spot charismatic megafauna in the wild—wolves, grizzly bears, and bison all reside here.
With so many spectacular sites, it’s no wonder that in-park lodging, including camping, can fill up six months to one year in advance. Plus, these historic sites often lack the soothing spa treatments and luxe creature comforts that many travelers look forward to after a day of hiking and geyser gazing. Luckily, there are still plenty of options if you’re looking for places to stay in Yellowstone—close to the park and full of great amenities.
Below, you’ll find a list of our all-time favorite Yellowstone National Park lodging hubs and vacation rentals, from gorgeous glamping sites to rustic resorts to secluded cabins.

It’s the best of both worlds. After a day of geyser gazing, sit back and watch the sunset from the log-hewn swing, relax in the private hot tub, or lounge in bed and gaze out through floor-to-ceiling windows.
