      Welcome to the Growley Bear Bed & Breakfast in beautiful Gustavus, Alaska! Our little establishment is perfect for those looking for that "Alaskan log cabin" feeling in a comfortable and clean environment. Locally operated by year round residents, we offer down home, personalized service and look forward to catering to your perfect Alaskan dream vacation.

       The Growley Bear is located in the heart of the "town" of Gustavus, in Southeast Alaska, internationally known for being the "gateway" (the only way in and out aside from owning your own airplane or seaworthy boat) to the amazing, majestic and magical Glacier Bay National Park in Southeast Alaska.The main lounge

      The Growley Bear setup consists of a main lounge, dining, and gathering area, and a separate facility for the comfortable and private rooms.

       Our property is strategically located within 5 minutes walking distance from the "town center". There, you'll find the Beartrack Mercantile (a place to shop for gifts and food), the local hardware store, and the baitshop and supply store. A 5 minute walk in the other direction takes you to the local boat dock and beach, and the one and only Mt. Fairweather Golf course.

ActivitiesGolfers heaven!
      Surrounded on 3 sides by the beautiful waters of Icy Straits, Gustavus is something straight out of an Alaskan fairy tale book. A 360 panorama of mountains will always amaze you (at least on the clear days) while you're walking around the lazy road system or strolling along the quiet and secluded beaches.

     Summer fun in the area consists of: kayaking, hiking, whale-watching, charter fishing, golfing, (we're conveniently located within 5 minutes walking distance to the most amazing golf course on the planet), eco-tours or simply bicycling to the beach to relax.
(We have free bicycles for all our guests!)
World Class Whale watching!
         And of course, you're only 8 miles away from the famous Glacier Bay National Park lodge- where you can grab some dinner and drinks as you sit on the deck and look out over the spectacular view.

Speaking of fishing: We love it!

     The Growley Bear bed and breakfast caters to sportfishing enthusiasts worldwide. Special relationships we have built over the years with our charter fishing friends allow us to specialize in helping design custom fishing packages that work for you.

Competive charter fishing packages, comfortable "fish friendly" lodging, a great location in the town of Gustavus, and the clean Alaskan air make us the perfect choice for your next Alaskan vacation.
