Tucked neatly into a forest of aspen, alder and old Colorado spruce, Riverwood Lodge seems a house from a fairy tale, the cool air redolent of the spicy woods, streams running through groves of willow.
The great room is the heart of Riverwood. A high, arched ceiling soars over a beautiful stacked stone fireplace, antique barn wood floors and an elegant dining area. A roomy, welcoming office with a stone fireplace and red leather Molesworth chair serves as entry to the Master Suite. The Master suite is grand and comfortable, with a king size bed, sitting area, writing desk and doors leading out to the lawns and thickets of river willow. The Master Suite has an ample dressing area, and a luxurious bathroom that looks out to the woods.
Two more guest rooms round out the main lodge, each with king-size beds, private baths and French doors to a balcony or terrace. Outside, in a private spot behind the Lodge, is a hot tub with a long, unimpeded view of the towering Snake River Range. The Lodge is fully wired and technologically up-to-date
Riverwood has a charming, two-bedroom, two bath guest cottage on the property, built of Montana logs. A stone porch wraps around the cottage, and inside is the Great Room – a stone fireplace at one end, the kitchen at the other. Glass on three sides lets in the music of the splashing creek.
Grand Teton National Park and Jackson Hole Mountain resort are just five minutes north of this wonderful property; a small local market lies five minutes south and the vibrant town of Jackson is 15 minutes away.
