Bentwood Inn

the bentwood b&b was a delight from the moment I walked in the door: the decor is appropriate for a log home in wyoming, and every bit of it is brilliantly clean and inviting. my room was immaculate, with its own gas fireplace that heated the room quickly and cheerfully, allowing me to turn the furnace off completely. windows look out into a lodgepole forest, and the windowseat and secretary-with-chair provided ample seating. plush robes, a jetted tub, q-tips and cotton balls ... the bathroom was perfect. my bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever had in a hotel/guest house. coffee was perfect, breakfast was awesome, and the bistro dinner neil and rachel prepared and served was fabulous. neil and rachel were quietly available, allowing me to sit and read in the living room and come and go at will, always willing to provide what might be needed. the bentwood b&b is beautiful, clean, and hosted by kind, intelligent people who know how to please a palate.

The Bentwood Inn is absolutely gorgeous and comfortable. Outside of the wonderful greeting and hospitality of Neil and Rachel, my room had a private fireplace and the most comfortable bed. I found myself sleeping in longer than normal and leisurely hanging around the great room reading my book and relaxing. Located merely 10 minutes from both downtown Jackson and the Jackson Hole Ski Resort, you cannot ask for a better location. One morning, a moose was standing the inn watching us eat a scrumptuous breakfast offering a variety of options to start off the day. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting and talking with the other guests and spending time with everyone over wine, dinner and time in between events and outings. I highly recommend the Bentwood Inn - such a nice, warm and cozy option outside of my usual business travel hotels.

We spent four nights at the charming and comfortable Bentwood Inn and enjoyed every minute of our stay. The innkeepers were gracious and very helpful with planning our daytime activities. The food and service was excellent. I would recommend the Bentwood to anyone who wanted quiet, rustic accommodations during their visit to Jackson Hole.

The bedroom/ bath are truly wheelchair accessible, a welcomed relief upon our arrival. I particularly enjoyed our time around the fire pit exchanging our days adventures with other guest. The innkeepers are extremely gracious and accommodating. The dinner was a bit disappointing.

We're very sorry this guest didn't enjoy the Bistro Dinner served on the occasion of their stay. New innkeepers are in place as of December, 2012. We always strive to arrange our Bistro Dinner menu with our guests in advance, to ensure it's a menu they are happy with and will enjoy. The Bentwood Bistro Dinners are genuinely one of the highlights of a guest stay and ... usually ... receive rave reviews. We hope this will be the case for all of our guests.

I wish we had scheduled a longer stay at the Bentwood Inn. The location to the Grand Tetons was great and our room had a very homey feel. Our only disappointment was the advertised wine social that didn't provide wine because of the local laws. Our innkeeper did offer to reimburse $10 daily for guests who purchased their own wine. The bistro dinner was a nice touch. The breakfasts were delightful.

We are so glad this guest enjoyed their stay and had the chance to join a Bistro Dinner. Thanks as well for understanding the circumstance of our hors d'ouevres service at the time.

My wife and I recently traveled to Jackson Hole for a short winter escape from Orange County. We searched online and wanted something different. The Bentwood Inn exceeded our expectations. The pictures on the website don’t do it justice. Walking through the front door, seeing the ambiance of the huge fireplace with a crackling fire was impressive. The hand peeled logs, baby grand piano and all the artwork was also impressive. We wanted and got the authentic Jackson Hole, Wyoming lodge experience. Our inns keeper made us feel welcomed and attended to all our needs. She put out a wine and cheese spread in the evenings and cooked us an unbelievably delectable breakfast each morning of our stay. The location was really nice. We were in between the city of Jackson and the ski mountain nestled in the forest. We can’t wait to come back on our next visit to Jackson Hole.

We look forward to welcoming you back to Jackson Hole and the Bentwood!

There was well appointed accommodations. we were on vacation for several days & Bentwood was by far the most comfortable. The hosts were extremely friendly, the food was outstanding & the atmosphere was homey. This was our first time at a B&B but Bentwood won't be our last.

The facilty was very comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding. We especailly enjoyed the many interesting guests we met during our stay. Our room and bathroom room were relatively small. However, beautifully decorated with access to a private deck outside of our room. We would return.

Bed was heaven. Breakfasts hearty and delicious. Afternoon cheese and wine superb.

Good food, wonderful beds, friendly, clean, very enjoyable stay and cute dog.

We're so happy this guest had an enjoyable stay at the Inn! Of note: there is no longer a dog at the Inn.

Peter and Jennifer hosted a small wedding (20 people) at the inn. They prepared and served a very special dinner after the Saturday afternoon ceremony. It was fantastic! The bride and groom's small families filled all seven rooms. Breakfast the following morning was a crowning touch - including a backyard visit from a moose and her youngster. We highly recommend the Bentwood for a quiet stay or for a memorable event!

My husband and I were married there on Jan 13, 2010. The whole experience was flawless! I could not imagine a wedding more perfect! From the beginning of the week to the heart-breaking moment we left, the stay there was unforgettable. With two towns on either side, we were always close to the winter sports and activities. Our balcony had a beautiful, serene view, a fireplace to keep us warm after a snow-filled day, and a mouth-watering breakfast to wake up to each morning. Peter and Jen were absolutely wonderful. They were friendly, accommodating, and simply put EXCELLENT!! We haven't stopped talking about it since our return. The Bentwood Inn gets our highest recommendation for the only place to stay if you want a personalized, unforgettable, experience in Jackson Hole, WY!!! We plan on returning for our family ski trip vacations each year. We wouldn't stay anywhere but the Bentwood Inn!

My husband and I enjoyed three nights at the Bentwood, and would return in a heartbeat. It is quiet, somewhat secluded, yet only a few minutes from the town of Jackson. Peter and Jenny are knowledgeable and gracious. Breakfasts were fabulous. Loved the fireplace in our room, the comfortable Great Room, the wine and cheese hour, and meeting the other guests. A great place to stay!

We were traveling mid november (which for this area is the off, off season. So we were the only guests there (which we loved!) We drove up to the inn after dark, there was still snow on the ground and the huge log cabin was so warm and inviting. Our room was perfect and our innkeeper warm and personable (but not at all overbearing). The breakfast was excellent- my meat and egg loving husband was a little bit afraid it was going to be something along the lines of fruit and muffins, but he was quite satisfied. Hopefully we will be back again!

We had an awesome time. Great place, Great people and a Great time!

This is a great Inn. The hosts were so very accomodating, making us feel so comfortable. They knew the area well and were able to make great recommendations on where to go and what to see. Breakfasts were out of this world, like nothing else I have ever expeienced before. Thank you again

The inn keepers were most gracious, very helpful regarding local events and places.

Exceeded all expectitations. Peter and Jenny have taken a beautiful Inn and made it even better with their warm service and hospitality. We would not hesitate to go back again.

The stunning entry into this bed and breakfast, along with chilled wine and homemade cookies was a memorable greeting to our stay at the Bentwood Inn. The suite accomodations and the attention to detail were outstanding. Our "special request" for an early departure breakfast was met with homemade coffee cake, fresh coffee, and fruit. The personal touches and the accomodations were truly superior to the standard hotel suite, and made for a memorable stay.

The Bentwood welcomed our family of five in several ways. First, the structure itself and surrounding acreage are beautiful and a pleasure to spend time in. Second, Peter and Jen are real pros at running the Inn w/outstanding bfasts and wine/cheese in the evenings. Third, the location is actually great because it's in between Jackson Hole and the town of Jackson Wyoming, right across the road from the Snake River and on a great bike trail that we and the kids had a ball riding on using the Bentwoods complimentary bikes.

What a find! By far the best Bed and Breakfast Inn our family has ever stayed at. If you find yourself heading to Jackson Hole Wyoming for skiing or planning a summer vacation make sure to book your stay at the Bentwood. We really enjoyed the "welcome" wine and cheese and the morning breakfast feast. We will definitely be back. The McMan's, Bozeman Montana. June 2009

I stayed at the Bentwood this February on a ski vacation to Jackson. This was my first stay at the B&B, and i HIGHLY recommend it - it's an amazing place. The property exemplifies what a Jackson experience should be - cuddling up near the grand fireplace of a log cabin-style B&B. It's just up the road from the ski resort, and not far from downtown Jackson. The rooms have a unique jackson flavor - a mix of wild west, ski heritage, and elegance. The best part about the Bentwood, though, are the innkeepers, Peter and Jenny (and their occasional sidekick, Nick). Peter is an amazing chef - his bistro meals are NOT to be missed! Multi-course deliciousness, with much of the food sourced locally. Breakfasts were incredible and gourmet as well. They made our stay at the Bentwood personal and memorable. Don't miss it! I can't wait to go back next winter!

I could not have asked for a better experience at the Bentwood Inn. We spend four nights and had an amazing time. The Inn Keeper's (Peter and Jenny) were polite, knowledgeable, accommodating, and helpful. Peter's 14 yrs as a chief was clearly reflected in the amazing 3 course breakfast. No better way to start the day. After a perfect day on the slopes, it was blessing to return to the Bentwood for some wine and cheese and engaging conversations with other guests. However most importantly, the Bentwood Inn gets sustainability and responsible travel! From organic and biodegradable products to informative, and complimentary, session with a local environmental expert. Luxury and ecotourism at its best!

Spent 5 days with my kids skiing Targhee and Jackson Hole. Usually we stay ski in/out, but this experience convinced me to look for a B&B next time again. The hosts were always of help to provide the information for our next activity or to make our stay morecomfortabel. The atmosphere they created was extremely comfortable and invited to stay in and get to know the other guests, which added to the experience. Peter is an outstanding cook and Jennifer is an outstanding house keeper. If Jackson comes back on the agenda, I'll be sure to stop in.

I was in desperate need of a vacation :) and the Bentwood Inn could not have fit the bill more perfectly. I loved it. Peter and Jen are extraordinarily friendly, accommodating and helpful. They had suggestions for all of the activities I wanted to fit in during my short stay and made all of the arrangements for me. They also have a wealth of knowledge of the local restaurants and directed me to several fantastic ones. The lodge itself is beautiful and a nice mix of plenty of space if you want privacy but homey and extremely comfortable at the same time. It was like staying at someone's home. It's also located quite well if you are looking for something near but not on the beaten path - just a very pretty few minutes drive to Jackson but out of the busier downtown area. Last but not least, the breakfasts are not to be missed! Delicious and beautifully presented. I highly recommend the Bentwood Inn and will absolutely stay there when visiting Jackson or the surrounding area again.

We stayed eight wonderful days at Bentwood Inn. Peter and Jenn were perfect hosts. We were married in a very small wedding in the main living area and they thought of minor details that we had not thought of. Peter is an outstanding chef and his breakfasts were well planned, prepared and wonderfully presented. He and Jenn also prepared Thanksgiving dinner for us and three other couples and we had a great time, sharing a lot of stories, laughs and wine. The Inn is quite, secluded and intimate and a perfect place for a Honeymoon or to use as a base for sighseeing or shopping. Peter and Jenn made reservations for us when we asked and helped steer us through the many restaurant choices in town. We had a great experience and will return soon.

We had a wonderful stay at the Bentwood Inn, and will go back in a heartbeat if we vacation in Jackson again. The innkeepers are incredibly gracious and hospitable, and do a fantastic job of making all the guests feel welcome. The gourmet breakfasts are delicious, as is the complimentary wine and cheese served every afternoon. The inn itself is very well kept and comfortable. It is an ideal cozy mountain cabin. It is very conveniently located, about 30 minutes from the airport. It is also quite close to downtown Jackson as well as Teton Village. From the very first day at the Bentwood, we talked about going back again! Highly recommended.

Our family spent a wonderful week at the Bentwood Inn. The Inn is charming, clean, and western. We thoroughly enjoyed every breakfast prepared by Peter the in-house chef. We even were able to sample one of his famous "bistro" dinners. It was by far the best meal I have ever had. Jenny, his wife and the other innkeeper, was a wonderful host. She made us feel very welcomed. The rooms are fantastic (I love the bathrobes and the body scrub). We have already planned on returning for some skiing this December and the Bentwood Inn is the ONLY place we would stay.

The Inn is extremely attractive in wonderful Jackson Hole. The warm hospitality and food provided by Peter and Jennifer are outstanding. By all means, if you are there on Saturdays, take advantage of the Bistro dinner, prepared by Peter, a highly trained gourmet chef. Can't recommend it more highly.

A special family week at the Bentwood Inn. Fifteen of us sharing delicious breakfasts each morning, playing games in the spacious back yard, enjoying wine and conversation on the deck, reading and relaxing in the great room, having wonderful family dinners on the deck as the sun went down,and sleeping so well each night in our attractive and comfortable rooms. The house itself was perfect for us and the hospitality far exceeded our expectations. We recommend the Bentwood Inn to all families who want something better than meeting in hotel rooms or taking care of their own houses!!!!

We visited the Bentwood Inn for 7 days/nights this summer and it is definitely a place I'd return to again and again. The inn is so relaxing, from the high timber ceilings to the piano and river rock fireplace, and the daily wine/cheese hours just top it off. You feel like you have a base to explore the Jackson/Teton area, then return to hospitality and wonderful and amazing food. Jenny and Peter know and obviously love their food, they are passionate and it and it shows! And their generosity in sharing things to do and areas to explore just added to our experience. We had a hard time leaving and can't wait to get back there.

Bentwood Inn is a fabulous place for lodging and dining! Wonderful staff and beautiful location. Innkeepers were very good hosts and always available for questions or recommendations without imposing. Highly recommend this Select Registry Inn. Good for couples and families.

I have never felt so at home anywhere in my whole life! The Bentwood is the most beautiful and relaxing place I have ever stayed. Jenny and Peter are so nice, they treat you like family from the minute you walk in. I looked forward to breakfast every morning to see what mouthwatering delight would be placed in front of me! I miss the food!

If you're thinking about going to Jackson Hole, GO!!! And stay at the Bentwood Inn Bed and Breakfast. Everything was great, from the rooms to the deck, to the wine and cheese. I would recommend the Bentwood to anyone wanting to relax and be spoiled while visiting Jackson Hole.

Having stayed at a number of B&Bs in my lifetime, I was looking forward to my stay at the Bentwood, but the experience far surpassed my expectations. The location is incredible -- convenient to both downtown Jackson and Teton Village, yet far enough removed from the "madding crowd" to seem as if you are in the middle of the forest. The ambiance is genuinely western -- not corny dude ranch western, but as if you're staying in a very upscale westerner's mansion. I had the good fortune to experience Peter's kitchen wizardry during the Tuesday evening bistro dinner and it was simply superb. Breakfasts were likewise unbelievable. Guest rooms are perfectly appointed and the most comfortable you can imagine. There's even wi-fi! I can't wait to return and spend more time at the Bentwood.

The atmosphere was like my own winter home, inviting and warm. I felt at home from the moment i walked in and the staff was nothing short of outstanding. In addition the food was amazing and I will without a doubt be back and passing the word along to all my friends.

We stayed at the Bentwood 3/14 & 3/15. The experience exceeded my expectations 10 fold. Our room was very cozy, so cozy we ended up sleeping more than we wanted to. Breakfast and our Saturday evening dinner were absolutely superb. I must say to top of the cozy rooms and amazing food our Innkeeper Heidi topped off the entire experience. Heidi was amazing and very pleasant to wake up to in the morning. Thank you Heidi! -Jake Denver, CO

We have been fortunate to stay at many very nice bed and breakfast inns across the country; however, our experience at the Bentwood Inn in Jackson, WY was "second to none". While the accommodations were very nice and the owners and innkeepers most accommodating (clearly, on our top fifteen list), the appeal of the Bentwood transcends even the uniqueness of the log frame construction of huge pine logs from Yellowstone Nation Park and the two-story floor to ceiling stone fireplace in the gathering room. The uniqueness of the "Bentwood experience" stems for the owners' extension of hospitalities not found at other BnBs - the expansive early breakfasts to accommodate skiers, the nightly wine and cheese receptions (with good wines served) in the comfortable gathering room in front of a roaring fire and the Tuesday night dinner prepared by trained chefs - all rendered in a sprit truly aimed at maximizing guests' enjoyment - made our stay at the Bentwood Inn "second to none"!

I leave it to others to report the outstanding virtues of the ambience, service and gourmet dining at the Bentwood. I speak for your visit during the winter months after a day of outdoor adventure in the snow. The fire in that magnificent fireplace beckons you to its warmth and comfort, enhanced by a glass of wine or hot toddy. Ahhhhhhh.... Does perfection exist? Indeed it does, and it's name is: THE BENTWOOD INN.

It seemed like a well-run large, private home. The rooms were well-appointed and pleasant, but the living room and library were also available for quiet reading or lingering over tea. The hosts knowledge of the area was helpful for finding hiking trails and restaurants. Near town, yet in the woods and on a bicycle trail. Perfect.

From the minute we walked in the door, we felt like we were at home. The food was great and the room wonderful. We'll definitely be back!

Great, relaxing place. Outstanding food and the hostess was super, very friendly and knowledgable.
