Unless you choose to camp , overnight stays in national parks are likely to be quite costly during the coming summer . Our study of national park lodging prices indicated guest room prices during the last 25 years have increased at twice the rate of increases in the Consumer Price Index . A night in a tent cabin at Yosemite National Park ’ s Curry Village this coming summer will set you back $ 205 including tax for sleeping under canvas with no heat , running water or electrical outlet . A Deluxe Lakeside room with one queen bed in Yellowstone ’ s Lake Hotel on June 28 is $ 649 plus $ 94 in taxes and fees . A single-room cabin with one king bed in Grand Teton National Park ’ s Jenny Lake Lodge with breakfast and a gourmet dinner will be $ 1,327 , including nearly $ 100 in fees and taxes . As Sonny and Cher told us in music , “ And the beat goes on .”
