Boasting its unique geothermal features like hot springs, mud pots, geysers, and fumaroles, it’s a nature lover’s paradise.

Our lodging while staying near Old Faithful was the Old Faithful Cabins. These were a relatively budget-friendly option with a great location - just steps from the Old Faithful geyser.
