The Jackson Hole valley offers lodging choices and amenities to everyone's liking. Whether you choose a five star resort, a cabin in the woods or a private home your choice should also include one that keeps ecotourism in mind. The performance and upkeep of a property should include sustainable choices that consider the nature of the glorious valley you have come to visit. Some of the most common sustainable practices that we see include a linen reuse program, on property recycling programs and paperless communication and billing. But these efforts however minimal, are not all that your hotel, motel, lodge or cabin property can do.  A truly eco minded consumer will look for their lodging to offer amenities that go above and beyond what is easy and obvious.  Many of the areas ecotourism properties are utilizing carbon offset programs, refillable toiletries, eco friendly development and energy efficiency.  When looking for a lodging choice, consider one that educates not only their guests but their staff about sustainable practices.

Lodging is one of the largest industries in the world where amenities exceed all else. The companies promoted on our Ecotourism pages have met a minimum of 10 guidelines from the set standards list and has been approved following an onsite inspection.  We are pleased to promote their conservation efforts.  To see a complete list of lodging guidelines visit ALLTrips.com.
