Hatchet Resort, Moran

Go somwhere else is my advice. The food and food staff were fine. Everything else, especially the front desk was on life support.

May 2010 - we had a nice visit? Great location, easy access to Gr Teton NP. Excellent food. New managers - husband & wife - friendly.

This is my FIRST negative review! We visited Yellowstone and there were wildfires in the park that totally changed our plans. Two of the major roads were closed and we could not get anythere close to the northern areas. The lady at the front desk was TOTALLY unsympathetic. First of all, she had to be woken up by the restaurant staff, at the request of a customer, at 9am for the guest to check out. She was obviously not happy, because she came in the restaurant and very loudly complained to the restaurant staff, in front of all the customers, about the guest. Then when we tried to discuss our change of plans, she was toatlly uninterested, had a crappy attitude and was only concerned with getting her money. The TV romote did not work. The room looked clean enough, but there were two mouse traps in the room. This did not leave us with a very comfortable feeling while trying to sleep. We brought a couple of small food items in the room, and worried all night about it attracting the mouses. There were not any amenities in the room. For the price we paid, I would expect something! We ended up leaving, still getting charged full price for the room and found another place to stay that was more convenient to the detours we had to make because of the fires. I would not recommend this place to stay. The man at the restaurant was very nice, but the lady at the office was horrible!!

Located near Grand Teton and Yellowstone the Hatchet was a great spot to base our national park trip. The rooms were clean and well maintained. The front desk staff had great ideas on where to go and see wildlife as well as activities. We were there early in the season and unfortunatly the restaurant wasn't open yet. I woud highly recomment the Hatchet Resort.

Pros: Location between Jackson Hole and Yellowstone/Grand Tetons, Very good restaurant that serves all meals, nice people Cons: Would not recommend suite (No room to move for more than 2 people), Sulfur smell throughout, eerie feel at night, hot tub was broken during my visit, Wi/Fi was knocked out by a storm, TV only gets 5-6 channels (I missed the baseball all-star game) The regular 2-bed rooms are a lot roomier than the "suites' and I would recommend just the standard room

My husband & I visited The Grand Tetons National Park & booked a one-night stay at The Hatchet Resort in July 2007. The resort is about six miles east of The Grand Tetons (in the middle of nowhere), but that was okay with us because we were leaving for Cheyenne, WY the next morning. The middle-aged woman at the front desk was indifferent and sarastic. She probably thought she was being funny or cute, but I didn't take it that way. Our TV only had about five stations, and one of them did not come in very well. The shower stall was slippery and there was no mat, so we had to put a towel in the stall for traction. The door to the cabin was not sealed completely, so a mouse came in through a little hole between the door and the rubber seal. It was running around the room. My husband opened the door and it ran out, but then it came in through the whole again. My husband called the front desk & the middle-aged lady came to the room with a bottle of spray. She told us to spray along the perimeter of the room. I asked her if she had another room and she said no. She later told my husband "You're in the country; what do you expect." I expected more for $152 a night. We hadn't seen the mouse for about an hour, so we assumed it snuck back out, but after my husband fell asleep, I saw it run out from under our bed to the other bed in the room. The hot tub wasn't working while we were there either. The food in the restaurant was expensive and very limited to begin with, plus they were out of the burgers by the time we went to eat. However, the breakfast was good the next morning. You're really a captive audience when you stay here because there's nothing else around. It was way to expensive. This place might have been nice back when it first opened in the 1950's, but I would not recommend it now. I would have preferred to have stayed in Jackson.

We spent our 2005 summer vacation at the Hatchet resort. we were very pleased. The facility was clean and maintained, the restaurant offered good food, the staff was friendly.

We planned a July 2005 wedding at the Hatchet Resort in Moran, Wyoming. Being originally from Wyoming I had knowledge on the Jackson area. The Hatchet was perfect for privacy, and our guests accomadations along with our own suite. The grounds are amazing and very rustic yet modern buildings cover the grounds. With great food, helpful staff, the Hatchet truly made our day a memorable one. The planning we had to go through with them was annoying. My advise is ask for all details when organizing your special day. From extra costs, to how tips will be paid. I was angered many times dealing with them via telephone and email. But when we arrived the Hatchet was perfect. The Whetstone is the most amazing building and our guests raved on the location and the overall wedding. We are planning on going back for our one year anniversary summer 2006.
