Yellowstone National Park (YNP)? What About Now?
Lodge(寄宿) Inside or Outside the Park?
Inside the park:It is a bit pricey, ranging from the motel to the cottage, but it saves travel time, especially important when you arrive and leave in the dark. Food choices exist, and you can always visit locations outside the park.
Outside the park:There are more selections, better accommodations,and more restaurants, which may be less costly. However, staying outside the park may be very inconvenient most of the time. For example, you really do NOT want to drive in the dark,and wildlife is everywhere.
If outside the park, stay nearby—the park is huge,you’ll drive a lot, so distant locations are a waste of your time. When making reservations, be sure to understand what "a few minutes from the park entrance" really means. Reservations:Make reservations well in advance—they can be changed; read cancellation policies.
