Visitor Center closed. Jackson was quite a big disappointment for me. It was somewhere that i was very much looking forward to on our road trip. The traffic they divert through town is unreal. There was about an hour long wait to go 1/2 mile through town. Coming from North and South Dakota on our trip, it was glaring at how unfriendly and really rude so many locals and people were here in town. I wanted a Jackson shirt until I got there. Now I will avoid in the future.

We had a lovely visit. The outdoor deck gives a great view of the National Elk Refuge which in the summer is green and lush. The mounted animal display inside was well done and has wheel chair accessibility. There was a short film showing concerning the animals in the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. The items for sale were reasonably priced from low to medium price. Lots of information available.

The visitors center. WOW! Bill and Lauren were SO knowledgeable and helpful! Felt antlers in velvet, put goat horns on head for photo ops, learned SO much about antlers and horns. It was gorgeous there! The paintings inside, are... Oh my gosh, GORGEOUS! Gregory Something. A squish the penny machine, (my first), it was just awesome!

This visit center is well worth your time for a short stop, either before your visit to Jackson Hole or after. We found the display in the center on Elks very educational. Don’t miss the deck upstairs, which overlooks the National Elk Preserve nearby. We stopped by here once this summer, and the other time 10 years ago, and enjoyed it.

Says open on Google Maps but it’s closed for COVID. Should update their web presence.

Though the material is vast for people to study it at their own pace and carry it with them, the staff was not all that well trained to guide visitors on both national parks: Teton and Yellowstone. They werent really sure of the opening of trails, hot springs, etc beyond south Yellowstone gates. I was advised to reach old faithful and find from locals there what the river currents would be like to take a dip in the hot springs. Strange!! The display is fabulous, though

Its a great center. The animal exhibits are very informative. There is a fantastic view of the reservation at the back of the building. Staff are informative and helpful when it comes to booking visits to other places, like the elk sleigh ride tour.

Jackson Hole a must see place to visit. Our trip was fabulous in this area. The scenery, the wildlife, everything about this area is spectacular. A place that I will definitely go back too! Seeing a Grizzle bear this close was just so unbelievable

If you thought Wyoming is a boring Wild west, well you are wrong. Cause Jackson Hole stands otherwise! The crazy skiing/surfboarding experience and one of the finest dine-in/Luncheon experiences at their associated lounge, ALL INCLUSIVE! Plus, the place is a beating town with crowd flocking in from everywhere, bringing an amazing vibe to the place. And when you are done With snowsports, JH has so many party or just a relaxing evening options to offer you.

My husband and I have never had so many OMG moments in one week. Wyoming is truly blessed with the most incredible scenery. Jackson was a great home base...lots of dining, shopping and recreational options. Plan to spend at least a full day exploring Yellowstones many treasures. Do yourself a favor and add this state to your bucket list!

The sleigh ride from the visitors center was awesome! We saw some fantastic elk. They had some great nature displays inside too.

Beautiful in every way. Amazing guide, informative. Highly recommended!!!

Stop by and take advantage of the information and education provided by the exhibits and friendly staff.

If you want to see masses of Elk at the National Elk Refuge during the winter, go to Visitor Center @ Jackson, WY and get your tix for the sleigh ride. Very cool and informative.

Great way to learn about the history and beauty of the Jackson area. You can get very close to the taxidermied herd of elk and see just how large a bull elk is! The multi-panel painted mural is really amazing from the upper level. Highly recommended!

Good place to take a break. Nice views.

Stayed two weeks at Colter Bay in Teton Park, had wildlife walking thru the park every day! Kayaked Jackson Lake at Colter Bay.

Breath taking advanture

Must go. Million Dollar Cowboy Bar, super cool atmosphere. Great little town for walking and shopping. Lewis and Clark rafting on the Snake River was phenomenal.

Great exihbit with lots of animals and a nice little gift shop too. The staff is very freindly and helpful if your visiting the tetons stop here first.

Jackson Hole is a quaint western town surrounded by the gorgeous scenery of Teton and Close to amazing Yellowstone. There are bison and moose roaming freely. Beautiful town.

Very informative about the Elk Refuge with helpful staff.

This is a great place to be. Lots of great outdoor activities.

The guy at the counter was excellent. We could not go to Yellowstone due to the snow and he gave really good suggestions on what else we could do. He provided some state road maps and planned with us on the different scenic routes we could take apart from through the parks. Thanks so much!

All the Staff was very friendly and super helpful! This is where you buy the elk sleigh ride tickets.

Friendly staff, interactive displays, eaily navigated, lovely views, nice gift shop.

FALCON Fridays are amazing. Knowledgeable staff can answer most of your wilderness, back country, hiking and camping questions. Yo uh need answers this is the place to go

Great visitors place and very educational

Great place very helpful staff and very informative. Visit before going to Teton NP

Really well designed visitor center, built as part of an elk refuge, with beautiful taxidermy displays. Staff here are wonderfully helpful, and gave great advice on how to spend my limited time in the Jackson/Tetons/Yellowstone area.The gift shop here is also quite sizable, and it was the only gift shop I was able to find my National Parks travel stamp in.Jackson Hole is a great location to visit during the winter for snow sport enthusiasts, and it is around this time of year that the Elk return to the refuge.The visitor center offers a great viewing platform to see over 1000 of them when they return to weather the cold.They also have a close relationship with the Teton Raptor Center, I visited on a Saturday, where between 3pm and 5pm three beautiful owls where visiting, along with their friendly handlers, to teach people about these birds. I believe this is regular, but phone ahead if its something you want to see, just to be sure.

Very informative. Staff is friendly and helpful. There are a ton of brochures and catalogs for not only Wyoming but surrounding states - tours, recreation, housing, trails, etc. There is a large gift shop, observation deck for the elk refuge, a walkway to the observation area for the wetlands, and a small park to picnic at.

Loved it! Definitely with stopping by for a bit. Everyone inside was super friendly and eager to answer all of my random questions

One of the most beautiful and unique natural wonders of North America. A bucket list item for anyone with an interest in the outdoors. The traffic can be bad during peak season but once you get beyond the tourist areas at Old Faithful or Canyon it gets better. Lamar valley is a perfect place to pull off and enjoy a hike and wildlife viewing.

Best visitor center Ive ever been in! Lots of info and help.

We took a ride on the elk refuge sleigh. Our host was excellent. He was friendly, and gave us a lot of info about the animals and the area. I highly recommend stopping by.

This is a very interesting place to stop and get out and walk around a bit.It has a lot of things to see and a pretty good gift shop with some unique items.

Outstanding! Nicely done

What a fun and interesting place. The Bar T wagon ride and chuckwagon dinner is highly recommended.

Great in-town visitor center. Especially great since its open in the winter. Includes small interpretive area about the Elk Refuge

Recommend staying in Tetons...not as many crowds as Yellowstone in the summer.

Nice visitor center with tours of the elk preserve.

Had to stop in Jackson! A bit touristy for our taste but has some interesting views, shopping and restaurants. Grand Tetons are amazing! Lots of elk, Antelope, moose around the area.

Wonderful people at the visitor centers. desk and a terrific sleigh ride in the elk refuge provided by Double H. We loved their wagon ride and dutch oven dinner last August as well (Bar T 5).

A must go place for first time visitors to the town of Jackson and the surrounding areas. They have a nice patio on the rear with great view of peaceful wilderness of the west.

Loved it. Make sure you do the Elk sleigh tour. Its beautiful.

So pretty and educational! I highly recommend going

Beautifully decorated. Friendly and helpful staff. Local maps and information about recreation is plentiful.

Took the sleigh ride from here on to the refuge. The merchandise was interesting and the people I spoke too were extremely knowledgeable about recreation and the geography of the area in general. A great place to get pointed in the right direction in Jackson.

In the winter it is beautiful but many roads are closed. The elk refuge visit was great

The Grand Tetons are spectacular. Especially with 6 of new snow & sunshine.!

We came here to buy tickets for the elk sleigh ride. Cool souvenirs, art, and fun facts about thebabimals in the area you can read up on while you wait. They also have an outside viewing area to check out. They were super busy and there was only one register open to buy merchandise which myself and a few others thought was strange because they had plenty of staff to open another register. I stood in line for an easy 20 mins+ just to buy a couple stickers lolOther than that. Cool place.

Awesome center and very helpful workers. Justin is the man there. Cool dude

GREAT info both locally and for Yellowstone and Tetons...wonderful display of wildlife and sign-up for Elk Range Sleigh Rides

Great display of Elks & Bear inside and outside. This Visitor Center is one of the best in terms of the display/interior decor. Loved the display of heads, giant chandelier and herd of Elks. The restrooms were clean. And the staff was helpful here and helped us plan our trip based on the time we intended to stay.

Great place to drop by before heading to Yellowstone or Grand Tetons. You can get the passes as well as information booklets here. The staff is extremely patient and helpful. They even suggest alternative plans in case your original plan is a bit tawdry.

Was so much fun, alot of beautiful things to see and we also went and did the elk sleigh ride was so much fun. But cold

My favorite place in the USA in the summer and early fall. Too cold in winter!

This is a great place and has a lot to see and learn about. I would just say to watch out for traffic. It is popular and can get pretty crowded during certain seasons, and parking can be a bit of a nightmare because of it.

Great place to seek out trails, park information and fun shop to buy souvenirs.

Very nice facility. Helpful staff. Lots of information on the area. Also great place to stop and take some nice pictures of the trails and streams.

Fun sleigh rides that take you right up to the elk herds. The building has information, along with gifts, exhibits, and viewing platforms overlooking the elk refuge.

Awesome little town. Busy place with tourist like myself. Beautiful

We found a Super guy working there, dang forgot his name, but he gave us maps an highlighted places to go etc. we used his maps the whole time! very kind an knowledgeable!

I like it better than yellowstone. Gorgeous views and wonderful camping.

Very cool! Gift shop inside, also lots of information about traveling through. Knowledgeable and friendly people to help guide you on your adventures.

It was clean and neat with reasonably priced items. Lovely view. Good information. Parking lot is a bit small. Animal displays were very interesting and the sculptures were beautiful.

Awesome town and great area to stay in while exploring the parks

My family was visiting Jackson in early October and our vehicle had mechanical issues. While our truck was being fixed we decided to go for a bike ride with our two young sons. Unfortunately, the weather turned and we took refuge at the Visitors center to warm up, look around and make a plan for where we should go. While standing in the lobby my 1.5 yr old son was making some noise on the wheel chair ramp and one of the older men working in the gift shop proceeded to yell at us and demand that our child be quiet. It was incredibly rude and uncalled for. Instead of being professional and having a conversation to understand our situation he was brass and aggressive. I do not recommend this location for your family especially if you are visiting with children.

Great stop in Jackson Hole. This was a quaint little town when we visited in 1988 but very much commercialized and very high priced in 2017

Jackson Hole area is best in October. Light snow the first week of October, not too cold. Will definitely be back.

Interesting and educational displays. Some very large and impressive elk and moose on display. Good selection at the gift shop but beware, they dont stock any Yellowstone national Park merchandise even though they are the Jackson Hole and Greater Yellowstone center.

Great place to learn about the history of Jackson and the surrounding area.

My favorite town. We loved the sidewalks because they were wooden. The whole town was so neat. I loved the jewelry stores.

Great place to learn more information about whats going on in Jackson. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

Great little town! If youre traveling nearby, its well worth going out of your way to stop by!

Being a local, I dont often go here, but for a visitor this is a place you should start at. If youre new to the area, its a good way to get your bearings, learn about activities, etc. There are some nice wildlife displays and learning opportunities. Staffed by both paid and volunteers, which all are passionate about what they are doing.

The folks are great and very helpful, loved the Taxidermy all about

Very clean and beautiful place

WOW. What else needs to be said. The area is a must see to anyone who enjoys the outdoors. Wildlife is everywhere. We visited in June and got a small snow storm so weather is very unpredictable .

Very helpful.We stopped here before venturing into the park. The staff was knowledegable and helpful (friendly too).A good place to kick off your visit.

Very informative on wildlife, really nice gift shop, lots of maps and sight seeing information. Employees very knowledgeable.

A must as a winter activity! Love coming as often as we can!

I love that beautiful town and if I could i would live in there.....i loved all that natural beauty

Really great place to visit.

The team working here are extremely friendly and outgoing. They gave us maps of both parks and even used 2 highlighters to highlight area with good views and the other color to highlight area of wildlife.

Rustic & the whole town is geared around wildlife. It is extremely expensive, Redford ownes a place here as do other very wealthy folks. A standard steak will set you back $60.00 - Hollywood prices. Most of the folks who work in the town live in Idaho and commute to work

Super visitor center. They have full size taxidermy of elk, bear and many other animals. Also a nice video showing animals in the area. Super helpful staff to plan your visit and a great gift shop.

ATTENTION! Just drive by on 191 and if you see only a few elks dont pay for nothing they will show you only 2-3 elks and thats it ....

Fun place. Just dont visit in July. Too crowded.

Cool area and town in general. Very helpful staff to point you in the direction of whatever youre looking for in the area.

It was closed. The welcome center pointed us to it.

Information about the area accurate. These folks know this area very well. They brought nature in the office.

We stayed at the Wort Hotel. Great rooms, friendly front desk staff. Love all the Western art in the lobby and throughout this hotel. Enjoyed reading about its history. Miss the crowds by visiting in late April or early November.We also saw what appeared to be 100s of elk most likely migrating back towardYellowstone from the Elk Reserve, an amazing sight!!! It was near sunset.

Everyone is SO helpful!! Also very neat interior so do check it out

Definitely check out the visitor center while in the area.The staff is super knowledgeable and can help you figure out where to go and cool things to see

Just drove through but there are good restaurants and shopping a short drive from the Teton Mountains and Yellowstone National Park. Although we did not see moose this time, they frequent the area and in the winter the elk refuge hosts thousands of elk.

Nice and informative staff. The sleigh rides on the elk refuge is a must experience.

The rep gave us advice about where to look for bison and elk and grizzly bears in Yellowstone National Park. And it turned out, he was spot on!!! It was wonderful!

They always have something cool going on here. The Teton Raptor group was amazing.

Had a very cool display of animals and information, also many antler chandeliers! Had a nice souvenir shop and information desk where you can ask for anything about Teton national park and get maps and passes
