Absolutely awesome. Phil and Lucie were wonderful hosts and have created a very warm and comfortable B&B. I definitely recommend the Black Bear Manor to anyone staying in Ouray.

My wife and I both feel that this is the best B&B we have EVER stayed in. Although we were only there for two nights, Phil and Lucie welcomed us like we were old friends. They gave us great advice on what to do in and around Ouray, helped make dinner reservations, and as for Lucie's breakfast in the morning.....wow.....We stayed in room 8 which suited our needs perfectly! We will definitely return to Black Bear Manor!

We just returned from Ouray and 3 nights at Black Bear Manor. We have travelled alot and stayed in a number of B&B's and this rivals the best of them. It would be difficult to find more friendly and hospitable people than Phil and Lucie. They are super accomodating and attendant to your needs. Even their small Scottie dog has personality. We stayed in a first floor select room that was clean and quiet and had an outside entrance. Everything was well maintained and cared for. Easy to find, lots of parking and a nice outside deck area. Very well decorated and bountiful flowers. Lucie's cooking is great and there are just so many good choices even if you're watching your diet. This was our fourth trip to Ouray and on number five we will stay here again. I can't imagine how you could do better!

After reading all of the wonderful reviews here, we were so excited to get to the Black Bear Manor on our recent vacation to the Colorado mountains. We were not disappointed! We stayed in room 5, a standard room on the ground floor. Although a "standard room" we did not feel "standard"; the bed was large and comfortable with lovely bedding and plenty of pillows, and the room included a large shower (but no tub), television with Direct TV, and small outside porch with a small table and chairs to enjoy. The innkeepers were so amazingly warm and welcoming, and Lucie won my heart immediately when we she let us check in early after a night of camping (since I desperately needed a shower and a nap)! We enjoyed the excellent quality bottle of complimentary cabernet on the comfortable leather couches in the upstairs observatory along with wonderful chocolates that we bought in town! The views of the surrounding peaks were breathtaking! They even had a music system set up to play soft music to set a wonderful mood while enjoying the sunset or the stars. I haven't even mentioned the AMAZING breakfasts that were prepared for us each morning of our stay. We were so indulgently satisfied, that we literally were not hungry again until dinner. Smudge, the mascot, was the most sweet docile doggy ever, and made me smile everytime I saw her! The B & B was located easily within walking distance of all of the shops and restaurants on the main strip in town. I assure you that every detail was noted and taken care of, and there is no question about it, that if we were to return to Ouray as a couple, we would immediately call Black Bear Manor and plan our trip around their availability. We would not hesitate to highly recommend this B&B to any family and friends who were going to visit Ouray.
