In the spring, summer, and fall, dine on the deck, surrounded by pine trees. Check out the hummingbirds who visit their feeders all day long.

If you're on your way up the canyon to hit the slopes or go for a hike, fuel up with a hearty breakfast first. Silver Fork Lodge has all kinds of delicious options, but the corned beef hash with eggs is a favorite.

After a long day of skiing or hiking, nothing hits the spot like a perfectly-grilled steak. Silver Fork Lodge offers Certified Piedmontese beef, which is especially tender. The Canyon Pepper Steak is the most popular, but the Flatiron Steak and New York Strip are both excellent, too.
