We were so happy to spend time at the Good River B&B, a classicl Alaskan log house. It's a quiet and serene place, with the best hosts ever. Breakfast was so tasty, the bread home baked and the jams are better than anything you can buy. The rooms are cozy and there was no trouble sharing the bathrooms. The beds are comfy and it was a pleasure to meet other guests and sit around in the livingroom hearing their stories and solving the world's problems. I think we made life-long friends here.

The 4th of July was fabulous. I think the whole community turned out for the parade, games, auction and dance. The glaciers and whales were pretty fine too.

We had a great time in Gustavus and Glacier Bay at the bed and breakfast.

It was especially fun for the kids, who not only found things to do for themselves, but showed us things we would never have discovered for ourselves. It was my first kayak paddle, and it was easy. I liked seeing all the seals and little birds diving and bobbing around and going about their lives with no thought to our kayaks.

Thanks for putting together a package for everything the family wanted to do. Your help was invaluable.

Way cool place,

The bikes were the greatest, no hills. Saw lots of ice, glaciers are bigger than they look in the pictures. The trees too, they said the cabin was built out of three trees they cut down in the forest.

Everybody was nice and the kids here have a blast. They all have bikes and get to go anywhere by themselves.

How do you like our human totem pole?

Hey Guys,

This trip was incredible. It's my second time to Glacier Bay, and way more fun. Good River is a fabulous place to stay, and I couldn't believe that Roy gave me the fish to take home. What a generous thing to do. You and Ruth were so gracious - you made all our arrangements, took care of all the details and it even cost less than what I figured if I did it on my own. You can be sure I'll be back. My brother will be up next year. He thinks he'll catch an even bigger fish... ha ha.

Many thanks, Eric 2004


I just wanted to thank you for all you have done. The cabin was so much more than I expected - this place is just beautiful. You are both truly something else. If I have any good pictures, I'll send them your way. Thanks again, Tim 2004

Thank you for a wonderful stay in Gustavus. We had an amazing trip and very much enjoyed out time at the Good River B&B. A highlight of our Alaska vacation was definitely the hospitality we experienced in Gustavus - especially at the Good River Bed & Breakfast.

What a treat it was - to this day we still talk about the moose sightings, bicycling to
Glacier Bay Park, and fishing. There's no doubt we will return.

Greetings from Minnesota

Thanks so much for suggesting that we fly from Juneau on the little air taxi. Here's a picture we took from the plane on the way over. The pristine wilderness is spectacular -not a sign of human presence in most of the Tongass Forest we flew over.

I think we caught the very last of the spray from a humpback whale that surfaced right off the point on the left. It was so exciting - we could even see it under the water, though none of those pictures turned out.

Thanks for a great visit -- Dan & Barb 2002

Dale and I had a wonderful time in Alaska overall and a great visit to GOOD RIVER. Don't know when we will be getting back to Alaska, but you can bet we want to visit again.

Thank you for the splendid accommodations and kind and generous hospitality this past summer. The trip all came together so fast and yet we were remarkable fortunate to have found you on short notice. It was a long way from anywhere, but we felt so much at home with you at Good River. The hosts were so unearthly and disarmingly friendly and helpful. After a long day of fishing, we knew that cozy comfort and good cheer and kindred spirited friends awaited us back at Good River. You may not realize how significant your efforts are at bringing a little sanity back into people's lives who are caught up in the machinations of the lower 48 commercial drone. You are doing a great service to mankind. Good River will be our destination when we return to Gustavus, and it is one of the principle reasons we want to. We will tell the world about you, and look expectantly forward to the glorious day when we might be so fortunate as to return. The best of all regards to you.

Thank you for your beautiful postcard. In Gustavus, beautiful white snow would spread over the ground. Here in Tokyo, it is very cold but never snow. I sometimes remember wonderful trip, such as great glacier, beautiful forest, whales, etc., in Gustavus. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and Happy New 21st Century
