Wine and local beer are available, and folks are welcome to bring their dogs and/or dance the night away. Chief among them is Pine Creek Lodge, a wooded retreat with an adult summer camp vibe and a backyard stage between soaring pine trees, where bluegrass and country bands host summer shows under the twinkling lights. Either way, a soak in a local hot spring, like Chico Hot Springs or Yellowstone Hot Springs, is a soothing balm.Ĭonsidering its history with Buffett, live music is a key part of the experience in Paradise Valley. On land, hiking trails are just as epic, like the Pine Creek or Passage waterfall trails or the trek up Emigrant Peak, whose 5,000-feet of elevation gain is not for the faint of heart, but is well worth it for the valley vista. And thanks to its ambient flow, floats have the option to add charcuterie kits and BYO wine, which makes for a romantic evening under the bald eagles. Guided floats are offered in the mornings and evenings, and last about two hours as you drift peacefully down the babbling waterway (this section of river only reaches Class 1 rapids, so the risk of getting wet is minimal).
For something more unique and upscale, book a guided trip with Cajune Boats, a company that designs and builds wooden boats that look more akin to Venetian gondolas than typical river rafts. Rafting and paddling are also popular pastimes on the river, with outfitters in the region such as Rubber Duck River Rentals. Thanks to its perch on the Yellowstone River, offering more than a mile of access to the iconic waterway, guests can conveniently book fly fishing outings or river floats right from the main lobby tent, then make it back in time for dinner - the bison burgers here are in the running for the new cheeseburgers in paradise. The perfect blend of rustic and glam, spacious accommodations eschew things like WiFi and TVs in favor of wood-burning stoves, complimentary camp activities, and the opportunity to unplug and commune with nature and each other, all while keeping cozy with king-sized beds and ensuite bathrooms.
The upscale campground, known for its chic safari-style tents fully loaded with hotel-like comforts, unveiled its latest location in Paradise Valley this June, getting guests up close and personal with the breathtaking landscape. And considering the quality of cuisine in the area, and its heaven-like landscape, it wouldn’t be a surprise that this stunning section of North Yellowstone stirred one of the most beloved musicians to ever pluck a guitar.įrom age-old to brand new, another lodging option - and an idyllic way to immerse yourself in the paradise of it all - is the newest location of Under Canvas. In fact, Montana’s Paradise Valley was so beloved by the singer that locals vouch that “Cheeseburger in Paradise” was actually inspired by cheeseburgers in Paradise Valley. one that swaps coral reefs and key lime pie for soaring mountains and rootin’ tootin’ saloons. The latter has long been eden for the late great Jimmy Buffett, a musician practically synonymous with island life, and one who loved the region so much he opened the first Margaritaville in Key West and co-founded the Save the Manatee Club.īut despite his island-loving reputation and his pantheon of Parrotheads, Buffett also had a special soft spot for another region of the U.S. For some, its beachside bliss or piña coladas by the pool, while others might envision a snowy chalet or the tropics of the Caribbean. Paradise looks different to different people.
