Family Vacation Planner

Our Western Hospitality is truly legendary.

Visiting Jackson Hole with the family? Here are a few unforgettable experiences that are sure to leave everyone smiling.

Start with a Chuckwagon Dinner—an evening of hearty Western fare served with a side of cowboy tales, live fiddle tunes, and old-fashioned fun. It’s dinner and a show, the Wyoming way.

Float the Snake River, once known as the “Mad River” by early trappers. Today, modern rafts and expert guides make it safe and enjoyable for all ages. Choose a calm scenic float to spot bald eagles or take on whitewater rapids like Lunch Counter for a splash of adventure.

Climb aboard a real red stagecoach for a quick ride through the heart of Jackson. With a cowboy at the reins and horses leading the way, it’s a favorite for little buckaroos.

Catch the Jackson Hole Shootout, the longest-running gunfight in the country. With cowboy characters, theatrical showdowns (and safe, fake bullets), it’s Western fun in the center of Town Square.

Experience the thrill of the rodeo, held every Wednesday and Saturday night during summer. Watch brave cowboys and cowgirls compete in classic events that entertain the whole crowd.
