    Jackson Lake is a great lake in an area with lots of outdoors fun all around. This lake is so wonderful. If you come at the right time of year, Gros Ventre River offers some fine whitewater, and if you've had enough of Jackson Lake, Cow Lake is close by. A normal amount of rain falls here at Jackson Lake; through the month of January you get the most snow around here while July is frequently the driest month. Colter Bay Village is a delightful site to get some  
   rest; going for a hike along the Emma Matilda Lake Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this region.
This lake is so wonderful. Here at Jackson Lake you can catch a sight of Lunch Tree Hill, and if the weather is glorious, you can go for a hike along the Two Ocean Lake Trail. For the duration of the summertime, highs frequently are in the 70's at Jackson Lake; through summer nights temperatures are in the 30's. The wintertime comes with highs in the
 
               20's; night lows at Jackson Lake through the winter ordinarily sink into the-10's. Jackson Lake is not the only location close by, Christian Pond is a close by lake, and dry warm beds await you at Togwotee Mountain Lodge.
Don't you try to stop me, cause I'm havin' a good time here at Jackson Lake. Christian Creek is a lovely stream that is worth stopping at. There's so much to do here at Jackson Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Signal Mountain Campground is a great place for that. Why not pop by Jackson Lake Dam while you're here, and Jackson Lake is good enough to spend more than a day at, Colter Bay Village RV Park is a good local campground. Soar down the rapids of Ditch Creek in a kayak; Grand Teton National Park is a delightful place nearby.
Hiking along the Hermitage Point Trail is magnificent fun.

Jenny Lake Campground
10 miles away
We love Jenny Lake and want to camp their with our family and friends...4 kids, 4 adults.  I am worried about not having reservations....is that a problem?...Jenny Lake Campground was awesome. The view was amazing. It was quite and secluded, the camp store is just a short walk from the camping sites. The lake is beautiful and quiet, no boats zipping around. We stayed at site #50, other sites that I would recommend are 45,46 and 47. These sites have the best view. The best thing was the FLUSH toilets. If you want a vacation away form all of the touristy things you should definitly stay at Jenny Lake. If you get there in the afternoon grab a site. You can always move the next day. It seemed like a lot of people only stayed 1 night....

Gros Ventre Campground
13 miles away
Gros Ventre (pronunced GROW-VONT)Campground in Grand Teton National Park is not to be missed. Moose viewing is spectacular, as well as hearing wolves, coytoes, and the sounds the Bison make walking through the campground. Depending on your campsite, try to be close the the Gros Ventre River for Moose viewing, or try to go towards the town of Kelly, for the most magnificent views of the Teton Range....

Lake Solitude Trail
16 miles away
July 18, 2008 Just got back from a hike to the lake yesterday. Always incredibly beautiful at any time of year (when the trail is open) A lot of flowers blooming earlier than usual because of the copious amount of melt. A bull moose, sow and calf near the trail just past the fork. The last half mile is covered in snow so that can slow you down a little. The lake is still almost completely iced over. Saw two 13'' fish (trout?) in the small, open area of the lake. Marmots snuck around our lunch spot hoping for a hand-out (don't feed anything). One of the most beautiful hikes around. If you think you're a strong hiker but haven't done many hikes or aren't used to the altitude, bring enough water for about a seven hour hike. Stronger hikers can make it in about 5 1/2 hours & seasoned hikers less--but count on a bottle of water (and Gatoraid) every hour....
