Yosemite. It's within 4 hours of my house. It's so beautiful (once you get away from the tourists ;-).
I've "lodged" MANY different ways in Yosemite. Staying in the valley is perfect. Lots of great hiking from right there. My favorite day-hike is up to Vernal Falls via the "mist trail".
I've done three/four day packs over Cloud's Rest (look to the left of half-dome... that knife edge mountain? That's Cloud's Rest... and that knife edge IS about only one or two yards wide.) We just finished three days backpacking up in Tuolumne area (just beyond Mirror Lake). I've also done a three day from the back-side of the valley into the valley.
I've stayed at the pre-constructed tents in the valley. I've stayed at a hotel just outside the park.
The only thing I haven't done is stay at the Ahwahnee Hotel. I'd LOVE to do that in Winter.

• I've always want to visit Yosemite. There are five plus national parks in Utah. One year, I visit all five in a weeks time: Capital Reef, Bryce, Zions, Vernal Dinosaur Park, and Rainbow.
