Family visit. Great location, peaceful, with wonderful view over the Inlet. Bobbi was great hostess, cooked and served delicious breakfasts. Spotlessly clean comfortable rooms and great to have lounge area available for sitting/talking. Felt very comfortable, welcomed and relaxed.

We had the suite with our own kitchen and it was perfect. We made daily visits into the hot tub and were blown away by the peace... More

We had the pleasure of staying at the Black Bear Bed and Breakfast for 2 nights last June. Bobbi and Jay are wonderful hosts and have a beautiful home that they lovingly share with their guests. Because our stay was impromptu and we didn’t have reservations (i.e. prior bookings), we stayed in a different room each of our nights. The... More
