McReynolds Blacktail Cabins

The Cross Country Skiing and Snow Shoeing is great in the park. I took this picture on a trip up to Taggart Lake Christmas Eve. So different than the summer. We headed straight to Dornan's afterwards for a "Hot Toddy" and to share our stories of our Bull Moose Encounter. Not a bad way to spend a vacation!

Taken from Kelly, South East from the cabins. It was 17 below zero, but so beautiful! On days like these we suggest "wearing a house", though it is surprising how warm 0 degrees feels with the sun on you!

All of us McReynolds send our wishes for a Happy New Year. Winter is here, and we are looking forward to some good skiing in the weeks to come. We have received quite a lot of snow in the last two days in the mountains - unfortunately it was very wet in the valley, so the driveway is a little slick. We decided to keep the West Cabin open this winter for the occasional winter guest. We had a couple over Christmas, and a couple more are in for New Years and a couple weeks in February. If you know of anyone who would like to have a winter retreat North of town, have them email!

It has been many years since we raised our rates, and are finding we are under the average in our category. Beginning November 1st 2011 our rates will be $320 plus tax per night. If you book before November 1st we will grandfather you in to the 2011 rates for one more year. Thanks for understanding and we look forward to hearing from you! Amy & Lyle

We are able to offer the West Cabin for rent during October this year. While the leaves will not last too much longer, the weather is usually nice through the middle of the month, and the valley is quiet and peaceful. Even when the weather is cool and wet, the West Cabin is a beautiful space to relax, read, write or just recharge. Please contact us if you are interested in a long weekend or more this Fall. We are considering opening it for the month of December as well at the request of a couple summer guests.

As you can see we have been blessed with a late Fall. By now the leaves are often off the trees. We are making the most of it with both cabin projects and hikes in the Tetons. Amy went up Open Canyon yesterday and found a beautiful field of lupine and paintbrush at almost 9000 feet! But the nights and mornings are chilly, so we are out of the tipis now. The Log Cabin sure feels palatial when we move back in the fall.

It was a wonderful and busy summer. We enjoyed seeing all our old friends return, and meeting some new ones. Sunshine is missing the activity now, and sometimes straying from home in search of a willing arm!

As you can see we did get green grass and trees, and even some wildflowers. The yellow fields are dandelions, and the bison are enjoying them. Our cabins are the ones you see in the center of the picture. The picture is taken from the Southwest, so the Tetons are out of view in this shot.

I forgot the rates! $295 per night and we ask for a five night minimum. There is a discount for 7 or more night stays. ($275 per night). Maximum, 4 guests. Thanks! Email me with further questions! Amy @ cabins@mcreynoldsblacktailcabins.com

As you can see by the pictures, Lisa has a lovely condo halfway between Jackson and Moose with Teton views, this would make a perfect base for a vacation for one or two couples. Please email for availability and reservations.
