Ember Coast
A luxury mountain villa with the Teton Range behind it

For the whole group

A villa, a chef's kitchen, and the park at the door.

Multi-bedroom residences with real kitchens, gentle park hikes, and resort programming when you want it.

Design This Trip

Teton Village is the standout base for families: ski-in ski-out residences and the Four Seasons sit at the base of the gondola, with full kitchens, room to spread out, and a heated pool the kids will not leave, all minutes from the gentle trailheads of Grand Teton.

Days that work for every age

Fill days with a calm-water scenic float on the Snake, the easy Taggart Lake loop, and a dawn wildlife safari to spot moose and bison, then bring a private chef to the residence so dinner with tired kids never becomes a logistics problem. A summer afternoon at Granite Hot Springs is the soak that resets everyone.

A villa means private dinners in without giving up the resort's spa and pool. We arrange the cribs, the car seats, the grocery pre-stock, and the activities that flex around nap time and altitude.

On the water and in the wild

Float the Snake, find the wildlife.

Snake River scenic float season runs roughly May to September; whitewater and wildlife outings are guide-led and weather dependent.
