Polar Bear Hotel


Tundra Lodge Adventures




When you combine the words “Tundra” and “Adventure,” I immediately count myself out. My idea of a vacation is not renting a room in the most frigid place on Earth.




However, add some polar bears to that adventure, and you might just count me back in.






Stationed for optimal bear viewing each season













Located on the subarctic tundra outside Manitoba, Canada, the Tundra Lodge is actually a train of connected bedrooms.






Constant proximity to polar bears in the area around the clock.













So, what will it cost you to vacation in King of the Arctic’s realm? A 7-day excursion will only set you back about $6,995. Please call prior to visiting to check availability. Wouldn’t want this icicle hotel filling up!
