For the price it was ok.

The website claims rooms (very large!) at 270 square feet. Ladies and gentlemen - that's small considering a cruise line's room is 180 square feet and an average hotel room is 350 square feet. The room design is homey though and functional. Too bad there were no balconies.

I found the food fine especially the caribou medallions. I did not like the dining room layout of large tables (like family style). With those prices I preferred a quite table for two not 20.

Staff at front desk seemed suspicious of guests. Coffee was Denny's quality at that time.

The house dogs were the best part of the trip. They accompanied us fishing as our bear watch-out.

My advice is to bring your own wine, coffee and cream (and snacks). Bring some good books too.

The Bear Track Inn goes above and beyond all expectations of how a true Inn should be run. Everything from the moment you get picked up from the ferry, or plane, to the time you leave is truely memorable. The food is another story. Everything is homemade and delicious. The Chef's Frank and Juan make everything to oder in front of you. The pastry chef Roberta makes the best scones and muffins. Even if you are not hungry, grab a few.
The rooms are new and inviting. The beds have down comforters and the bathrooms have fluffy towels and robes.

Great experience. Great Inn. Like the Ritz in Alaska.
No need to stay anywhere else.
