TL;DRAbstract

This chapter presents the case of Papoose Creek Lodge, an ecotourism lodge in Montana, which explores why stronger relationships have not developed between the ecotourism community and travel operators in the USA. It is established that a positive balance must be maintained among the three equally important aspects, namely: (i) low environmental impacts paired with conservation benefits; (ii) environmental education for guests; and (iii) sustainable links with the local economy.
