Really just terrific all around, and the owner's flexibility and communication were outstanding. 1000% recommend and will stay there again if we make our planned return to Churchill in summer or autumn. No negative comments whatsoever. The entire experience was great from start to finish.
• Amanda (10/5): Perfection! - Lynn and Gord were the most amazing hosts. Their 2 dogs on site were great for cuddles! Lynn is an amazing cook too! There was nothing to dislike. Everything was perfect
• Anne (9/5): We would not hesitate to stay here again - This house was very well equipped and clean. We would highly recommend staying here.
• Amy (10/5): It was the best place to stay in one of the best towns to visit! - So many things. First the location - right in the middle of town so everything was a short walk. Lots of conveniences, kitchen items, extra games, comfy beds, washer/dryer, and a VERY helpful owner! We absolutely loved it!
• Vanessa (10/5): 10/10 stay in Churchill! - Everything was perfect! The house is clean, cosy and has everything you could need. It’s also possible to use the washer and dryer. The hosts are 10/10 - very friendly and helpful! We would definitely come back! Nothing!

• bcornell111 (10/5): Would have stayed longer for the breakfasts if we could have. - If the friendly owners or the nice accommodations don't get you, the fabulous breakfasts will. Sadly, the breakfasts are only available during bear season. Nothing comes to mind.
• Graham (10/5): Great Place - It was clean and well apportioned. Lack of communication.
• Alex (10/5): -
• Jessica (9/5): The Bears Den is a great space.a very cozy home that was very conveniently located - a short walk to restaurants and mus - The house is very clean and comfy. The kitchen was well stocked and organized. Location was very convenient. The property is advertised as a BnB but there was no breakfast at this time of year. This wasn’t a big issue as we just bought groceries and cooked for ourselves and/or went out for breakfast
• Gail (10/5): Friends and family to explore Churchill. Great accommodations, great location - Great location. Can easily walk to train station. Has everything you need including washer/Dryer. Great shower. Lots of towels. Big tv. Has it all b Can’t think of anything.
• Sandra D (10/5): Excellent accommodation, the price is perfect, and everything you need is provided….coffee, tea, laundry soap, towels, c - The Bears Den Guest House is a home away from home. It is well stocked with every dish, pot and appliance. It’s impeccably clean, and decorated to reflect the community you’re in. Easy to get to, easy to get around and coming back at the end of the day feels like coming home! A treasure!! I appreciated how well kept it was, how clean everything was, laundry services were available. It has a really homey feel!
• Camelia (9/5): Feeling like home, friendship environment - Location No second toilet.
• Eduard (10/5): The perfect place to stay in Churchill - This apartment is the best I even had Everything was available Looks perfect clean really worth a 10
• Robert (10/5): Great place to stay. - Convienent, comfortable and clean. Nicely appointed. Would recommend to anyone! Effing bugs🤬.
• Donna (8/5): Very good -
• Mitchell (10/5): Best place to stay - Best place to stay in Churchilll by far. The house was absolutely charming, well stocked with everything you need and more. We baked cookies one night without having to buy anything for it. Felt like we were right at home the instant we walked thru the door. Very accommodating and flexible to have access to the house with the train arrival and departure times. The shared accommodation makes the stay even more enjoyable as you get to share your experiences with other people and have great conversations. Thanks D and D from Victoria, you were awesome roommates! Great location, everything is within walking distance to the train station and all the tour operators. Thank you Gord and Lynn for providing such a beautiful place for visitors to stay and to enjoy the community and wonders of Churchilll!
• Paul (10/5): Best accommodation in Churchill MB! - I stayed at Bears Den for a 2 day work trip, while my colleague stayed in the other Bears Den. I have travelled extensively throughout the world, and I have to say that this accommodation was one of the best equipped that I have ever stayed at and exceeded my expectations. It was newly renovated with beautiful appliances, furnishings and comfortable beds. It wasn't lacking anything from soaps to kitchen items to laundry detergents. Not one thing was overlooked, including reusable grocery bags in the front foyer, and flashlights on the night stand. My train didn't leave until the evening and the hosts were very generous and allowed me to have a late checkout. Communication with them was fast and easy. The internet was excellent too! Everything was perfect and I highly recommend this apartment when staying in Churchill and I will stay there for sure during my next business trip. Nothing, except I wasn't there long enough!
• Dryburgh (10/5): Exceptional - Nicely renovated, very clean and every appliance you could want. The dogs weren’t there.
• Jeffrey (10/5): Won't think of staying anywhere else if I go back to Churchill. - Clean, quiet, comfortable, well-equipped (especially the kitchen), well-lit. Centrally located, quick walk to station, restaurants, stores, museum, churches, Town Centre complex. I was able to check in early and leave late since my room was available.
• Al (9/5): Very cold weather, close to everything we needed and a great experience. - The house was great and the help getting the frozen water back running was very fast and not a problem at all. Nothing but a good experience the entire time we were there.
• Warren (10/5): Exceptional - The owners
• Suzanne (10/5): Exceptional - Lynn picked us up from the train station earlier than normal. We had a very enjoyable stay and our other guest house couples were super compatible to spend time with. Gord cooks a great breakfast daily.
• John (9/5): Quiet location and great hosts - The hosts were very accommodating, always friendly and wanting to help us enjoy our time. Drinks and home made cookies and cake were always on offer. Everything was very clean. Breakfast was different each day and always good and plenty of it. Nothing, we were happy there
• J (10/5): Exceptional - Gord and Lynn were great hosts. Breakfast was excellent too.
• Jennifer (10/5): Excellent guest house for a homely stay in Churchill - It felt like home and we were made to be very welcome straight away, including being able to use the washing machine and left over food from the cupboards! The location was in the centre of town and very close to the beach, for whale spotting. We were lucky enough to have the guest house to ourselves but even sharing it with other guests would have been great. Excellent value for money when staying in Churchill. Nothing - it was great!
• Lory (10/5): The Bears Den is PERFECT! - This is the best guest house in Churchill. We had 8 great days here and the Bears Den was perfect in every way. Lots of space even with other guests. Great cooking options and equipment. Quiet street and just the best location for everything. We will be returning and staying here again. Could use one half bath to provide a second toilet. With six people that is the only drawback. But it won’t stop us from staying again.
• Calvin (10/5): Very nice place to stay! - Kitchen was very well equipped. Laundry was very convenient. Na
• Chloe (10/5): Exceptional -
• Judith (8/5): Very comfortable and enjoyable time here. - Spacious, well stocked, comfortable. Good comms from Lynn. Shared bathroom, no-one around to find out stuff.
• Andrew (10/5): Amazing place with a very responsive host! - We recently returned from a 5 day stay in Churchill. We feel we were very fortunate to have selected Bears Den to stay as the place is exceptional. It is nicely appointed, clean, well located and has everything you need. Based on conversations with other travelers staying at other hotels we feel we made the right choice. Nothing!
• Robert (8/5): Very good - The house is modern and well equipped. The host is very helpful.
• Anderson (10/5): Exceptional -
• Dawn (10/5): Welcome Home! - From the moment I walked in, I felt like I'd arrived home, and after nearly 3 days in the train, that was just the feeling I was looking for. Lynn had already advised me there would be tea and coffee available for me to help myself, and when Kyle (her son) arrived home, I felt so relaxed and as though Of known him for years. Bear's Den is so beautifully decorated, extremely comfortable, and the layout design allows the energy to flow positively throughout. All the rooms, including the bathroom and kitchen, are spacious, with 'cosy toes' carpets in the bedrooms. Kyle went out of his way to include me in the local community and introduced me to Drew, who does the Northern Lights wait list. Not only that, but Kyle took me out sledding across frozen lakes at night through the Boreal Forest, where I had such fun and had an experience I'll never forget. I feel like I gained a younger brother in Kyle, and I honestly cannot recommend Bear's Den highly enough. There is absolutely nothing to dislike about this home from home.
• Marshmarigold (9/5): Superb - Very clean and comfortable. Comfy bed, full kitchen, living room with sofa and amenities. Safe and warm :) A little away from the town stores, req some planning for moving around if you are not part of a tour group.
• Elizabeth (10/5): Exceptional - I am so beyond thrilled to have found the Bear's Den Guest House in Churchill. My stay could not have been better. It offers everything, and more, than I could have thought of or wanted. Amazingly kind and helpful communication with Lynn before my stay, a really wonderful and helpful host (thanks Kyle!) and the ever-so-comfortable and cozy living spaces (I want those couches), and incredibly well-outfitted kitchen, perfect location for exploring the town and meeting locals, it also gave me the very special opportunity to, as much as is possible in just a visit, feel like a part of this great community. A true home away from home. I just hope it's available whenever I come back. And return I definitely will. Thanks again!
• Sophie (10/5): I would 100% stay here again, it’s 100% worth the money and I would 10000% recommend! We couldn’t have had a better stay - I loved everything about this property. Gord was an exceptional host and he was very kind and generous. He cooked us an amazing breakfast (both mornings) and he allowed us to stay until our train arrived. They bed was very comfortable and it felt like a very homely stay. Everything was immaculate condition and it couldn’t have been cleaner. Well done Lynn&Gord
• Jacinta (10/5): Couldn’t have been happier with it. - The property was in a great spot, easy to walk into town. It had a great kitchen to use and the rooms were very comfortable and warm. The hosts were exceptional and delightful to meet. They were very helpful and made our time there that much better. Thank you, we couldn’t have been happier with our stay!
• Keith (10/5): Fantastic! - The breakfasts were fantastic, the hosts were great, the rooms were comfortable, the facilities were very clean, the hosts provided transportation to the tours and train station. It was a great stay. The snacks were too good, I ate too much. LOL
• Katherine (10/5): Wonderful BnB - Our hosts were delightful! They went out of their way to make our stay as easy and as comfortable as possible. We had a great time staying there and would recommend it to anyone. The breakfasts were delicious too and the guest house itself was really lovely. Not to mention their cute little dogs! Nothing! It was all fabulous.
• Ramona (10/5): Exceptional - The hosts were the best ever. We felt like we were leaving friends behind when we left. Lynn and Gord went out of their way to give us rides when needed and even cooked us dinner when all the restaurants were closed.
• Terri (10/5): We could not ask for better, more accommodating hosts. Keep up the great work Lynn and Gord! - The hosts were so very friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in the door. The breakfasts were yummy, with lots of effort put into them. It would have been nicer if we had our own bathroom but we knew that we had to share one when we made the booking.
• Randy (10/5): A beautiful, modern, well equipped home within walking distance to stores and tour offices. -
• Yakov (10/5): Exceptional - We had a whole 3-bedroom house to ourselves for the 3-night stay, which was very comfortable. It has excellent facilities - shower, TV, full kitchen, fireplace, comfortable living room and bedroom. It is within walking distance to the train station and all the town amenities. Breakfast is self-prepared. Make sure you get the door access code before you arrive. Also, be mindful that you may have to share the house with other renters, in which case it will be a shared washroom/living room/kitchen arrangement
• Bhaskar (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jannik (10/5): Exceptional -
• Darlene (9/5): Superb - Beautiful house. Communication between staff and guests wasn't the greatest. I arrived when others were there which is perfectly fine but they didn't know I was coming.
