Where ever you decide, please call ahead and make sure motorcycles (if you are riding) are welcome. Several (not many, thank goodness) will not permit motorcycle parking. I attended a conference at Park Vista a couple years ago. About 1/2 mile from the main drag and fantastic views, but ~$110/night. They welcomed my bike, but warned me to take all food from the bags, as bears have been known to rip the trunks open on cars to get to food. If I were to stay in that area, I do believe that I would try Townsend instead, as it is much quieter, less expensive, and closer to my preferred entrance to the park.
