I would stay at Shoshone Inn an entire trip. As my base. Very nice room tastefully appointed. A nice line of calming creams as a welcome gift on the bed. 2 waters in fridge. Another very pretty bag with toiletries. Kurig with choices. Super nice touches. Bed and pillows could have been more comfortable but it's not a game changer. Help yourself to bagels, condiments, fruit, yogurt, and coffee. Such a great base to explore Shoshone. 2 days at least. There are so many cool trails, gardens, ponds and history... everywhere! Close to Baker Ca, a quirky town in itself. China Date farm ranch(yum!) and fantastic trails abound. Dublin Gulch really cool hike through. And so much more. To be out all day exploring and then go back to the Inn to relax in the natural warm mineral spring pool. Just a heads up, I took a walk to the pool about 4pm. The walk in that area, from the Inn through the conservation area, is more beautiful at every turn. But the pool area was very noisy with children.
