in the last week
Great lodge! It's expensive, but it's in the middle of the park, so you save lots of shuttle time. The food at the restaurant is amazing! The deli has lots of great grab and go stuff. The beer garden has a shockingly number of beers. A group of deer and turkeys call the area in front home. And one of the prettiest hikes (lower emerald pool) is right across the street and only a half mile hike. You can see Angel's landing from the lodge and the trailhead is the next stop on the shuttle.
