I saw a reporter on CNN today with tourists next to her at Old Faithful Geyser which is right next to Old Faithful Inn in Yellowstone so I believe the Old Faithful Inn is either still open or has reopened for the summer.
Here is more information and phone numbers so you can check for yourselves if you want to stay there like we did before the floods and road washout and homes being washed away near Gardiner, Montana at the northern Entrance to Yellowstone.
