Jackson Hole

Thanksgiving is a time to gather, reflect, and enjoy the bounty of the season with family and friends. Here in Jackson Hole, our community takes this holiday to the next level with unique events, breathtaking scenery, and unforgettable experiences. Whether you're a long-time local, a new resident, or exploring Jackson Hole homes for sale, Thanksgiving is the perfect opportunity to embrace the magic of this town.

As a Jackson Hole realtor passionate about our vibrant community, I’ve rounded up the best Thanksgiving events to enjoy this season. These activities showcase why so many people fall in love with Jackson and make it their home.


1. Thanksgiving Day at Teton Village

Kick off your Thanksgiving with fresh mountain air and stunning views at Teton Village. The slopes typically open just in time for the holiday, offering an exhilarating start to the ski season. After working up an appetite on the slopes, head to one of the village’s exceptional restaurants for a gourmet Thanksgiving feast.

Local Tip from Cole Mizak: Some of the best Jackson Hole real estate is just a stone’s throw from Teton Village. If you’re considering purchasing a home nearby, imagine the convenience of enjoying world-class skiing right outside your door.


2. Annual Turkey Trot 5K

For a fun and active way to begin Thanksgiving morning, the Jackson Hole Turkey Trot 5K is a must. This family-friendly run takes you through the picturesque streets of Jackson, offering stunning views of the surrounding mountains. Proceeds from the event support local nonprofits, making it a great way to give back to the community while working off those pumpkin pie calories.

Pro Tip: The sense of camaraderie during the Turkey Trot mirrors the strong community spirit you’ll find as a Jackson Hole homeowner. It’s just one of the reasons people love living here!


3. Thanksgiving Dinner at Local Restaurants

Jackson Hole’s dining scene is second to none, and Thanksgiving is no exception. Many local restaurants offer special menus featuring locally sourced ingredients and creative takes on traditional favorites.

  • The Wort Hotel’s Thanksgiving Buffet: A classic choice for families, with a wide array of dishes to please every palate.
  • Snake River Grill: Known for its intimate atmosphere and gourmet menu, perfect for a more upscale holiday experience.
  • Calico Restaurant and Bar: A cozy, family-friendly option with delicious holiday offerings.

Insider Insight: Dining out on Thanksgiving gives you a chance to relax and soak in the Jackson Hole vibe—another reason why buyers and sellers trust me as their Jackson Hole real estate agent to find homes that fit this lifestyle.


4. Jackson Hole Holiday Art Walk

Transition into the festive season with the Thanksgiving weekend Holiday Art Walk. Local galleries in Jackson’s charming downtown showcase stunning artwork, often inspired by the region’s natural beauty. Stroll through the shops, enjoy refreshments, and pick up a unique piece to decorate your new Jackson Hole home.

Why It Matters: The art scene here is a reflection of Jackson Hole’s rich culture. As your Jackson Hole realtor, I always emphasize how the town’s creative spirit enhances the quality of life in the area.


5. Lighting of the Square

Wrap up Thanksgiving weekend by attending the Lighting of the Square, a beloved Jackson Hole tradition. The downtown square comes alive with thousands of twinkling lights, creating a festive ambiance that captivates children and adults alike. Santa usually makes an appearance, adding to the magic of the evening.

Imagine This: Owning a home in Jackson means having access to these heartwarming traditions year after year. Let me help you find the perfect property to call your own.
