Jacob Lake Inn
The epitome of a rural, rustic lodge, the Jacob Lake Inn has modest accommodations in a log-style building, but it makes up for the normality of the rooms with a wonderful bakery and old-time lunch counter that seems to be packed all day and all night. The lodge, like all properties in the north rim area, is open seasonally.
