Ouray was our favorite vacation so far and Black Bear Manor far surpassed our expectations. Phil and Lucie are extremely friendly, helpful, and generous, to the point you feel completely spoiled and pampered. The breakfasts are out of this world - delicious and always a great variety. The sound of the nearby stream and the amazing view of the mountains contributed to a relaxing vacation. Phil and Lucie also provided a bottle of wine upon arrival, delicious chocolate truffles at night, and freshly baked pies in the afternoon. The room was very comfortable and cozy and we felt right at home. We also enjoyed the views from the observatory and relaxing on the porch swing on beautiful, quiet evenings. We can't say enough about this B&B as well as this town, which we fell in love with. We hope to make it our regular vacation spot.

We stayed at the Black Bear manor for a weekend, hoping to enjoy a relaxing getaway before the birth of our daughter. We weren't disappointed! The room we stayed in (the Princess Suite) was spacious and immaculate, and we were greeted with wonderful individually boxed chocolate truffles from a local store. Breakfast was bountiful and delicious - eggs, pancakes, fresh fruit, bacon, potatoes, and more, served with great hospitality. One of the men at our table joked, "Where's the steak?", and the Lucie, one of the inkeepers, promised that the next day, there would be steak as well ... sure enough, there was, along with another amazing spread. When it rained the first morning, we went upstairs to the on site observatory and took in the spectacular view and Lucie brought us freshly brewed loose leaf tea. The inkeepers were helpful throughout - they recommended local restaurants and were happy to answer any questions or just to chat. We highly recommend this place and hope to return someday.

This was a wonderful stay and a five star breakfast. Phil and Lucie where great hosts, very accomodating and helpful in all respects. You won't be disappointed in your stay here.

My wife and I stayed at the Black Bear Manor for three nights for our anniversary. Phil and Lucie were great host and put alot of thought into their B&B. The breakfast was outstanding, more food is prepared than you could ever eat. If I had to choose something to go on and on about it would be the breakfast. There were alot of extra touches that you don't always find at a B&B's. The truffles we got each morning on our nightstand after the room was cleaned were as Phil told us "the best truffles you'll ever eat" he was right. The bottle of wine we recieved was also a nice touch, even though it was our anniversary everone that stayed got a bottle of wine. Our thanks goes out to Phil & Lucie for going out of their way to make our stay in Ouray one we will always remember. And yes we will be back. Bruce and Tammy Jolley
