Lake Yellowstone Hotel & Cabins Details

Set along the shore of Yellowstone Lake, this grand hotel has welcomed guests since 1891 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Restored to its 1920s elegance in 1990, the property blends historic charm with sweeping lake views. The signature white columns, the Sun Room overlooking the water, and seasonal live music including a string quartet in early summer and a pianist at other times, create an atmosphere of classic yet relaxed refinement. The hotel is also Green Seal certified for sustainable operations and designated a National Historic Landmark. Guestrooms in the main hotel reflect a 1920s ambiance, while the adjacent Sandpiper Lodge and nearby cabins offer more economical options. Accommodations range from the spacious Presidential Suite with two bedrooms and a partial lake view, to lake facing suites and deluxe rooms, to standard lodge rooms and simple cabins tucked behind the main building. Select cabins are pet friendly with a nightly fee. Most rooms are elevator accessible, though a few steps are required for parts of the East Wing, and upper floors in the Sandpiper Lodge are stair access only. ADA rooms are available in limited numbers. As with all Yellowstone park lodging, rooms and cabins are non smoking and designed to reflect the natural setting. There is no air conditioning, television, radio, or internet service, and cell coverage is limited. Cooking is not permitted. The hotel operates seasonally from May 15 to mid-October, with dates subject to change.
