Gardiner, another gateway to Yellowstone The town of Gardiner is located close to the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park and just 5 miles from the famous Mammoth Hot Springs area. It's claim to fame is the Roosevelt Arch erected in 1903 with it's inscription "For the Benefit and Enjoyment of the People".
The town provides an alternative place to stay while visiting America's first National Park to the somewhat expensive and quickly booked up lodging in the park. There are a number of modern hotels and a western-looking main street lined with shops, restaurants and bars. |

| Pros: | "Small western town, cheaper lodging than in the park, plenty of resturants, shops, bars" | | Cons: | "Probably very cold in the winter" | | In A Nutshell: | "A good alternative for lodging while visiting Yellowstone" |

Amazing, out of place arch... :-))) | Goner Fri Nov 28, 2003 06:10 UTC Great page, they certainly have enough lodging for the park visitors. | keeweechic Sun Nov 16, 2003 05:31 UTC This looks a gorgeous area to drive around with all this wildlife. That fleet sure is quite a blast from the past. Looks like a good alternative to staying in the Park. |
