Popular for its applewood-smoked Western-style ribs and Wyoming cheese steak, the meaty menu here stretches to bison burgers and wild-game bolognese but has little for vegetarians. Take a post-lunch or pre-dinner stroll up to Lost Creek Falls, a 10-minute walk behind the lodge. The porch rockers are a fine place for a nightcap.
