When creating their list of “10 of the Most Luxurious, All-Inclusive Mountain Resorts High Above Sea Level,” Smart Luxury chose Brooks Lake Lodge & Spa as one of the coveted destinations where nature, fresh-air adventures, and upscale amenities intersect. Taking odds with travelers’ common image of beach resorts when hearing the term “all-inclusive,” ShermansTravel’s Smart Luxury literally elevated the category, heading for the hills – and discovering Brooks Lake Lodge’s Wild West-luxe vision of paddling on a gracious alpine lake or hiking a nearby pinnacle before getting cozy indoors over a crackling fire and gourmet dinner. Not to mention the lodge’s extraordinary fly-fishing, scenic horseback riding, wildlife viewing, canoeing, paddle boarding, stargazing and more – now with a late-summer special rate adding value, August 14 – September 17.
As Smart Luxury wisely put it, “Tucked deep in the mountain-ringed backcountry of Wyoming’s Shoshone National Forest, Brooks Lake Lodge is a retreat for travelers seeking rugged outdoor adventure coupled with refined comforts. You’ll forfeit screens, gadgets, and everyday routine in favor of hiking forested trails, horseback riding through meadows, and canoeing on the lake. With a 1:1 staff-to-guest ratio, everyone is treated like a VIP.”
Each summer Brooks Lake Lodge, surrounded by stunning wilderness near Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Yellowstone National Park, offers a once-in-a-lifetime experience for guests that creates long-lasting vacation memories at the historic guest ranch. Guests thrive in adventure and relaxation while escaping the busyness of life to slow down and enjoy the views. Three magnificent chef-prepared meals are included in overnight stays, as is charming afternoon teatime in the governor’s tearoom, with its tasty offerings of baked goods, fruits, cheeses and drinks to enjoy fireside.
Meanwhile, the opportunity to find relaxation and pampering with a variety of (separately priced) professional spa treatments awaits at the on-site Rocky Mountain Spa, which also features the included amenities of an enormous outdoor hot tub overlooking the craggy Pinnacle Buttes, a dry sauna and a tranquility room.
At night, guests sleep soundly under the star-filled skies in either a cozy lodge room or a private cabin, with lake views and wood burning stoves. And for a sweet end to the summer season, Brooks Lake Lodge is offering a special late-summer rate of $685 per person per night (2-night minimum stay required) from August 14 – September 17, 2024.
