Dancing Bear Cabin-Sleeps 8-11! Fantastic views and location/Close to Targhee

Oh - so much to tell you! When you arrive - the exterior is a simple log cabin, located on 2 acres directly facing the Tetons. Pull up a chair on the deck, the view is absolutely mesmerizing. The beautiful quaking aspen trees surrounding the cabin make a picturesque setting. A seasonal stream and Bear Creek run behind the property and down through the large grove of trees makes this exactly what a cabin in the west should be. Inside: absolutely charming decor that makes you feel at home the minute you walk in. Race to the 3 bedrooms to see which you want - each has its own flair. 2 full bathrooms on the main level. I love the simplicity of the place- if you want granite and steel, this is not for you! Leather, log, tapestries and a view from simply every space. The cozy living room with a porcelain stove (propane) is like an instant blanket. Best for summer - A/C - an unusual feature for this area but the fresh air is best! The open floor plan lets you work in the galley kitchen while being part of those both in the dining area or the living room. Multiple places to sit, visit, read, work (?) or just enjoy.
There is an unfinished basement with 3 twin beds and a 1/2 bath - this is the unfinished basement (truly roughed in) and not a bedroom but is good for a spillover. It is cool in the summer and a great place for the kids to hang out - complete with a ping pong table. Washer and dryer are available for your use downstairs.
So what makes this place special? I think the feeling of comfort the minute you walk in. With those mountains looming above you - tuck in and have your own piece of paradise.

The shop behind this property is a separate property. It has recently had work done on the interior during the evening but should be finished soon. Property manager uses this space and can be available as needed.
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Teton Valley Historical Museum. Enjoy features like an arcade/games room. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a kitchen in the holiday home.

Amazing Location
The house, the view and the host were absolutely stunning. Waking up and having coffee on deck looking at the Tetons was priceless. Yoga on the deck was something out of a fairy tail. The drive to the Tetons Park through Swan Valley was amazing. Not staying in the busy Jackson Wyoming area was priceless. Allowing our dog to stay was a huge help. The host was so nice it’s hard to describe. I felt like the host was family. Unbelievable how nice everything was!!!

The perfect getaway
The property is beautiful, it was exactly what we were looking for, close to town but far enough to get the tranquility we were looking for. The cabin is straight out of a book and was so comfortable for myself, partner and the doggos! We loved it!

Amazing home with incredible views
The Dancing Bear cabin was an amazing place just a short jaunt from downtown Driggs. A great base camp for hiking with incredible views of the Tetons. Janet was extremely accommodating and we had everything needed to cook up nice meals with friends and enjoy the sunsets after a day in the woods. The house had plenty of space for the 4 of us to spread out and relax, although we spent most of our time enjoying the outdoor patios! Super fun stay, we’ll definitely be back!!

A Perfect base of operations for family exploration of the west side of the Tetons!
We had a family gathering, 3 couples and a dog, and the Dancing Bear was the perfect place for us to stay for 10 days. The home has everything you need for dining, lodging and relaxing. Porches on the east side and west side allowed the viewing of sunrises and sunsets. The Tetons are visible from all of the windows on the east side. Beautiful living area with unique hearth and mantle. Dining room table easily handled our group for meals, card and bord games. Ping pong table in the basement was a bonus. The kitchen was very well equiped and a large grill on the back deck made grilling very convenient. We loved the rustic appointments in the house and we lacked nothing for our comfort and enjoyment. A great base from which to explore the Targhee National Forest, backside of the Tetons, Yellowstone, Grand Teton National Park, Jackson, Driggs, and Alta. Fabulous hiking opportunities just miles from the Dancing Bear. All in all, a wonderful stay that exceeded our expectations!

Beautiful property close to the tetons and Yellowstone
Pet friendly, lots of dogs around. Owner's daughter stayed in dwelling on the property and was very helpful when questions came up. View was dreamy with lots of space on the property to explore including a meadow and creek. House was very clean and well cared for. Very close proximity to fantastic hikes and town center with great grocery store. Highly recommend this property for families wanting some quiet relaxation.

Excellent for Outdoors Lovers
We loved the property, along with Janet and Josie who ensured that we were happily ensconced in this cozy, wonderful home near Teton Canyon and Grand Targhee. Perfect place for those who like to play outside in the winter! Great access to alpine, nordic and backcountry skiing. A perfect place to gather together after the day and enjoy dinner around the table and then retire to the living room where the stove kept us all warm. Fun artwork throughout the house. The beds were excellent. Ping-pong table in the basement is a big bonus!

Great place!! Greater view!
Great place to stay! We ventured out to Grand Teton national park and Jackson hole everyday. Awesome drive over the mountain to get there. Small town of Driggs had all we needed! The house was great! There was 9 of us and it was perfect. The kids had the basement and the 3 rooms upstairs worked out perfect for the adults! I’d definitely stay again! Thanks Janet!

Breathtaking Views!
Views, views, views....coffee, sunrise and and mountains on the front porch and wine and sunsets on the back porch. Cabin is beautifully decorated with all the amenities that you would need including board games and trail maps. Driggs is a short drive away and includes some good restaurants and the main grocery store (note it is not open on Sunday so we drove to Victor to purchase some supplies for the day). Close to some excellent hiking trails. We took some day trips to Jackson Hole and the Grand Tetons (about an hour drive). Cabin was clean, comfortable, spacious and Janet's communication with us was excellent. Would love to stay again!

Loved it!
Stayed in this beautifully decorated home with our (4) 20-23 yr old children. Janet was an excellent host, very responsive and helpful. House was comfortable with nice togetherness spots but lots of room for everyone to have own spot when needed. Enjoyed body floating on the Big Eddy, Phelps Lake Jumping Rock and Hidden Falls hike in the Tetons. The 1 hr ride to the Tetons is long but beautiful also as much of the drive is through the mountains. Would recommend to others for certain!

Peaceful respite
This house is in a beautiful bucolic setting. It was a place for my weary travelers to rest their heads after long days in Yellowstone and grand Teton. A bit of a drive over the pass into GT but well worth it when you can have coffee from the front porch while watching the sunrise over Grand Teton and sit on the back porch at night and view the stars. The house was the perfect size for my family and my sister’s family of mostly grown kids. The ping pong table in the basement was an added bonus. Driggs is an adorable town with a perfect grocery store where I stumbled upon the local coffee roaster and got some delicious beans.. Everyone is so friendly and helpful This was a most enjoyable and relaxing stay.

This property fit the bill and then some! The whole family enjoyed the cabin. It is close enough to town for grocery runs but isolated enough to enjoy the quiet. And the views! Oh my goodness!
