Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Nice Comment: It's a nice book, but I thought it would contain more pictures. It only has some sketsches from the buildings. The information in de book about the hotels are very complete. Customer Rating: Summary: meticulous research Comment: This book was most helpful especially in the way it told what rooms to request based upon what your expectations are. Many lodgings have an extreme variety of room types and these are almost never spelled out for a customer in detail. Thank you for a job well done Customer Rating: Summary: From resorts to cabins and campgrounds Comment: Most national park lodges are located within the park itself and offer the best local accommodations for seeing the park, so if you wish the best national park experience, pick up The Complete Guide To The National Park Lodges as a planner. It's organized by state, then by park, which makes it a snap to locate the park and its offerings. From resorts to cabins and campgrounds, details include maps, descriptions of accommodations, rates and food, seasons, and activities.
Customer Rating: Summary: Good Buy Comment: An excellent guide to own if you are planning to visit and stay in a national park. We used it before booking reservations in Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Glacier. Customer Rating: Summary: I wish we had bought it earlier Comment: I wish we had known about this book before last summer's trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks. The Scotts not only offer advice on which lodges to choose, but also which rooms to request. If we had only known we would have requested one of the several rooms they suggest in the older section of Old Faithful Inn. Oh well, maybe next time. Buy this before you visit a national park.
