Through tours of Dorothy’s original cabins, self-guided exploration of our outdoor, natural areas, community programming and a wide selection of mission-driven retail merchandise (including our own Isle of Pines Root Beer), visitors will leave with an understanding of who Dorothy was, how she lived in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and a greater appreciation for the Ely Area’s natural and cultural history.
Amazing woman and fun to learn her life story. It is worth a visit. Did not try the root beer but it is available in the gift shop. . In 2020, tours have to be pre arranged.

The North American Bear Center is the only educational facility of its kind - it helps people learn from the bears themselves about bear behavior, ecology, and their relations with humans. There is a huge need for accurate information about bears worldwide and the mission of the non-profit North American Bear Center is to advance the long-term survival of bears worldwide by replacing misconceptions with scientific facts about bears.
A recent trip to Ely led us to the Bear Center, which is truly an outstanding place to visit. The exhibits are well done and the staff was helpful and informative. The highlight, however, are the resident bears. So glad we got to take the behind the scenes tour. Definitely recommend this for any age group.
