One of the quieter spots in Yellowstone is the Lake Lodge on the shores of Yellowstone Lake. Yellowstone is much more crowded than when we were here in early July 2009. There are more cars on the road and the parking lots are almost always full. It was nice to drive by the lodge and not see lots of people. Jeff and I remembered sitting on the porch that overlooks the lake, and decided to pull in and sit for awhile.
If you're ever in Yellowstone and the crowds get to be too much, head over to the Lake Lodge for some peace and quiet. There's a trail down to the lake, or just enjoy a rocking chair on the porch.
We had packed our usual assortment of sandwich stuff for lunch, plus some leftover fried chicken, but when Ruth saw the restaurant in the lodge, she lobbied to go there instead. The inside of the lodge is rustic with timber walls and ceilings. We had a nice lunch and then finished our drinks on the porch.
