I've been to all 63 major US national parks. Here are the 3 I love going back to and the 3 I'm glad I saw once.
Briefly

Acadia National Park is known for its fall foliage, great hiking trails, and being the first location to see the sunrise in the Continental United States from October 7 to March 6. Although all of these things play a part in why I continually go back to Acadia, what I love the most is the park's rugged coastline and proximity to Bar Harbor.
The park's modest size is also a blessing in disguise. You can either quickly see the highlights or spend a longer time at each stop without feeling rushed or overwhelmed, which, for me, has created a stronger connection to the park.
Grand Teton National Park was one of the first I visited solo. From the second the Teton Range came into view in my windshield, I knew it would be the place I would return to more than any other.
I find myself continually going back to some parks while others I'm happy to have seen once. The parks I keep returning to are varied and more generally accessible, meaning I can visit more often.
