Generally, if you want lodging in a well-known National Park, you have to plan at least 1/2 year ahead, if not a full year. Some parks have convenient gateway towns like Springdale for Zion and Estes Park for Rocky Mountain and they'll have a wide variety of lodging and restaurant options. Lots of the western NPs do have historic lodges - check out the Great Lodges of the NP book and/or DVD from a library to get an idea of what's available.
If you can swing September, you'll find fewer crowds, cooler temperatures, fall colors, and in places like Yellowstone or Rocky Mountain you get to hear and see elk bugle. May is also a less crowded time and weather can be a little cooler (and waterfalls in Yosemite are going full).
As already said, don't overlook national monuments like Devils Tower or Cedar Breaks or Canyon de Chelly or Craters of the Moon. State parks like Custer in SD or Baxter in ME have lots to offer too.
Some parks you group nicely together in a two week trip, if you plan - the 5 Utah parks (Zion, Bryce, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Arches) plus the North Rim of the Grand Canyon; Glacier & Yellowstone; etc.
