We would like to do several days of hiking, but we don't want to camp on this trip.Where is the best/most convenient lodging close to the park with good access to the best hiking trails? Thanks.

You can see lots of neat stuff on the shorter hikes. Also the drive in the park is beautiful with several pull offs to see some beautiful views. I would do it. We loved it there.
