Unique vacationers need look no further than the Jackson Hole Fireside Resort in Wilson, Wyoming, where you can rent a charming (and sustainable) glamping cabin.
The LEED-certified cabins are built in the U.S. and feature all the amenities you could want in a getaway: king sized beds, kitchen, bathroom, a fireplace, TV and WiFi and private outdoor space.
There are options for more intimate cabins for a romantic getaway or larger cabins for families. You can also book multiple cabins at once to bring all your loved ones on the adventure.
The cabins are within walking distance to local restaurants, or you can cook on site. Each cabin has a kitchen and, for the bold, an outdoor fire pit that can be used for either s'mores or a full on Food Network style meal.
There's a lot to do in the surrounding area. Jackson Hole is located close to Grand Teton National Park as well as Yellowstone Park for hiking and nature sightseeing. The Jackson Hole Elk Refuge makes for a fascinating day trip or you can relax at the Granite Hot Springs.
Everyone makes a big deal about Wyoming's stunning natural wonders, like glacial lakes and thermal features. Those who have spent enough time exploring know that some of our man-made wonders are just as impressive - and they can be a lot easier to access, too! For a wonderful example, just take a look at the Pathfinder Reservoir, just south of Casper, Wyoming.

The Pathfinder Reservoir is a spot in Wyoming that's home to a true man-made wonder.
The dam that created the reservoir is an engineering marvel. It was built between 1905 and 1909, and it was one of the first projects that the new Bureau of Reclamation decided to take on.
The engineers and construction workers who poured their hearts into this remarkable dam certainly did an amazing job, as it stands strong and is still in use more than a century later.
There are multiple campsites around the Pathfinder Reservoir, and most of them are open year-round. There is a mix of sheltered and exposed sites, and they're all first come, first serve.
While camping through the Wyoming winter may not seem all too appealing, when you consider that the reservoir is a top-notch ice fishing destination, it's easy to see why the campgrounds stay open! Camping at Pathfinder Reservoir is a fantastic experience.
All four of the campgrounds that surround the Pathfinder Dam and Reservoir are first come, first served. Find a time that's right for you, grab your tent, and enjoy the great outdoors. You can find out more about the facilities and amenities of each campground, as well as directions and area maps, on the Natrona County Parks website. In the summer, Pathfinder is a popular spot for boating and fishing, but it's such a large area that crowds are almost never a problem.
