**CAUTION STAFF STEALS FROM CAMPS*** Dropped off my cooler at my campground in a bear box. Came back from hike and my cooler packed with food for week was stolen out of bear box. Asked nearby campers who witnessed staff taking cooler. Contacted security/ staff and was brushed off. Got local police involved and the next day cooler was returned empty. Don’t make the same mistake we did. Always lock your stuff up at this campsite and do not trust the staff/ security. Thank you colter bay staff for ruining our trip.

Lovely cabin in a great location for walking, rafting etc. Not far from Jenny Lake for hiking,

The cabins were charming and comfortable- they have kept the historic feel (ours was one of the original cabins) but updated the bathrooms etc. Spacious as well. Good location near the village shop which sells coffee and breakfast rolls as well as gifts, food etc. We ate at the restaurant, great bison burgers and excellent service. Not far from Jenny Lake for hiking,

You will have a genuine and rustic experience. Colter Bay has everything you need for your Teton stay. The food is not cheap, so load up your cooler in Jackson. If you are looking a cheaper option to a Colter cabin, try the tent cabins at Colter. They have a cement slab and fold out bunk beds. This is a great option for young families. Bathrooms are a short walk from each tent cabin. Showers are available at the Colter Bay laundry. For your stay, headlamps are a must. Make sure every member of the family has one. If the kids want pizza, Leeks Pizza is your best option. It is about a 10 min drive from Colter Bay. The Cafe at Colter does offer pizza, but I don't recommend it. Don't fall prey to its convenience.

Poor maintenance and allergenic chemicals

My wife and I stayed at Colter Bay Village, 9-8 to 9-13 in 2024. My problems started when I realized your cleaning staff had used a huge amount of heavily scented chemicals to clean the cabin. I am sensitive to these substances, as are about 30% of all Americans. I immediately had a migraine headache and burning eyes. Seeing that the floors were non-porous, I set about wiping the offending chemicals off using a bath towel and warm water. I managed to lift an astounding amount of dirt off of the floor, and also the water I wrung out of the towel had a greenish tint. The next morning, I saw the staff going to from to room with bottles of, you guessed it, green colored cleaning chemicals. In other words... and this is consistent with the hospitality industry as a whole... no one actually bothers to "clean" anymore, they just spray green chemicals on the floor, swish it around with a damp mop, and declare it to be "clean". It took about four days for the offending scent to disappear. After it did, my symptoms did as well, I had a headache and burning eyes. The cabin was covered with graffiti, much of it obscene and drug related. The dates were old, a decade or more. No one has bothered to remedy this. The toilet seat had a special "ding" on it, which I am sure has been there a long time. The windows were "repaired" with duct tape. There was a metal burr hidden on the exterior doorknob of the cabin, and I cut my finger on it. So there's that. There is much to recommend about the National Park obviously, but these cabins aren't part of that. We had a bad experience, and we paid a lot of money to have that bad experience.

It started at check in. We had 4 friends and were booked into a 2 bedroom with one shared bath. When we got there we were put in 2 separate rooms. One a double bed and an outside shared bath(they had to walk in the pouring rain to use the facilities!. The other was a twin room we had to share with 6 other people, and a community bath! At a price of $171 per room! I NEVER would have booked if I had known this. The woman’s room had 2 stall toilets and 2 stall showers with no lock on the door. Anyone could have walked in, the men included. Because there was no curtain to separate the shower, you literally had to undress in the stall unless you wanted to walk naked through the toilet area. To top it off the electric went out in the morning while drying our hair. I can honestly say that I have never been so disappointed in a travel stay before.
