Black Bear Lodge Motel

Black Bear Lodge Motel

8/10 Good
"The location is fantastic. The place is old and not perfect by any means. It has beds, a bathroom and a sink. The bathroom door was held closed by a piece of wood, the ac worked well, the blankets were thin and scratchy, their was a microwave.... that wasn't plugged in or even close to a plug in, outlets were ripped out of the wall, it did have a micro fridge that worked. But for the price it was okay."

"This cabin was so cute and perfect for couples and/or small family with a child. The location was perfect as we had it all to ourselves. We had an issue with the AC unit and the owners were so kind as to switch us to another unit in the property. The communication was excellent, both units were clean. The unit we switched to was three times bigger than our original unit which was a plus. Both units were stocked up and overall our experience was great."
