About Us

The Dancing Bear Guesthouse opened in 2006 in a classic Victorian home just a short stroll from downtown Shelburne Falls, and has since welcomed thousands of guests from across North America and around the world. Owners Richard and Ellie Binns have transformed this historic building into a top-rated short-term rental, now known as Blooming Inn Shelburne Falls. With a clear vision for the property, they remain committed to providing guests with an exceptional, high-quality experience.

It’s an exciting new chapter for the inn—and for guests who will have the opportunity to enjoy the beautifully reimagined Blooming Inn Shelburne Falls.
