Dancing Bears Bed and Breakfast, located in Girdwood, Alaska, offers a luxurious and private atmosphere to take in the beauty and enjoy the activities the Alaska wilderness provides. This cozy alternative to a traditional hotel sits practically at the base of Mt. Alyeska, where you can walk to the chairlift with your skis or snowboard to ride the fresh powder.

Open year-round, Dancing Bears Bed and Breakfast has comfortable rooms with new nova foam queen sized mattresses for a peaceful night’s sleep. Enjoy a meal with family and friends in a beautiful kitchen adorned with hickory cabinets and bamboo floors or warm your toes by the wood burning stove after a day of skiing. If you have aching muscles after a day of hiking or skiing, soak in a hydrotherapy hot tub located outdoors in its own custom gazebo, or warm your bones in the infrared sauna this luxurious bed and breakfast affords its guests.

Your hosts, Derek and Lorna, will have plenty of suggestions for activities, whether you choose to visit Girdwood in summer or winter. Derek, an experienced guide, can customize a tour for you or point you in the right direction, depending on what activities you enjoy. And Lorna, a certified massage therapist, offers discounts to guests on her pampering one-hour massages. Derek and Lorna have decorated the B&B with their own creations made with beetle killed spruce trees they milled themselves.
