“Like it even better after staying at the Wilderness”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 29, 2013

We've been staying at the Black Hawk for several years now. We had the opportunity to stay at The Wilderness resort with my son's boy scout troop. I was worried that it would make me not want to stay at the Black Hawk anymore. The opposite turned out to be true! The whole time we were staying at the Wilderness, I was wishing we were back at the the Black Hawk where it is quiet, relaxed, not crowded, clean, friendly, and all of the other things you've been reading about. We spend every Father's Day weekend in the Dells with a large group and look forward to staying in our same "wing" of rooms. Every year, The Black Hawk surprises us with something new and improved. Last summer it was remodeled rooms and bathrooms. What will it be in 2013? Can't wait to find out! P.S. We stayed in the house on the property during our last trip in November. It was just as nice as the rest of the Black Hawk.

Bethany, Wow! Thank you for taking the time to write us an awesome review as it is very much appreciated! We appreciate even more all of your continued patronage with all of the Huber family and friends over the years! The Wilderness has some unbelievable waterparks and things to do. We offer a different type of lodging experience as the Black Hawk has been family owned and operated since 1945 and we are trying to preserve a piece of "True Americana" with yearly and modern upgrades. My parents had a few simple rules while running the Black Hawk for 44+ years...."always put money back into the business". This year, as every year we are doing the same. We're glad to hear you enjoyed staying in our two bedroom house recently and we'll look forward to seeing everyone this Father's Day weekend as we have your rooms reserved for you with your own reserved parking spots. Thanks again and have a great rest of the winter. Sincerely, Brad

“Our Summer Vacation Spot!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

This past July was our third time staying at the Black Hawk Motel. It has become our yearly tradition! It is a mom & pop motel, a refreshing change of pace from the huge 'water park' hotels, and the couple who owns it are lovely. We get one of the small 'cabins' that have a jacuzzi bath. The room is very clean and the beds are heavenly. The pool is small but always sparkling clean. They have fresh coffee in the lobby all day and is it very good. You can walk downtown easily so you do not have to worry about parking. If you want great value and a clean room with friendly people, this is the place!

Room Tip: The little seperate 'cabins' with the jacuzzi tubs are wonderful.

Hello Julie, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review! Our jacuzzi rooms are some of the most popular of our 30 room types to choose from. Most of our cottages allow for extra privacy w/ no common walls, with reserved parking right by your door. We are just a short 6 block walk to the center of downtown Wisconsin Dells, yet all of the major attractions are within about a 5 mile radius of us. We truly enjoy welcoming all our many repeat guests back each year, as well as our first time guests! We look forward to seeing you again this summer! Sincerely, Brad

“Plan to stay again!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 30, 2012

We stayed for week at the Black Hawk at the end of August and loved every minute of it! Our room fit our needs perfectly, the arcade was entertaining, the pools were clean, we were walking distance from downtown - absolutely no complaints. We will be back again and again and again!

“The Best Value in The Dells”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

I have stayed at the Black Hawk Motel more then a dozen times over the years and have been 100% satisfied every time. This hotel is great for children with both indoor and outdoor pools. The price is affordable and the rooms and grounds are always clean and well maintained. The front desk people are friendly, helpful, and treat you like family. It is an older hotel but very well maintained. The rooms are comfortable, clean, and large.

“Excellent Value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012

My husband and I stayed here overnight in October. We typically would stay in a larger hotel than this but the positive reviews about the motel made us decide to stay here, and those reviews were accurate. It was extremely clean and quiet. It is family owned and operated and the owner who checked us in to our room was friendly and helpful. When we went to our room the TV did not work, which the owner came to check immediately after we told him about it and promptly fixed the problem. We stayed in a room with two queen beds that had been updated last winter, and the bed was very comfortable. The motel is within walking distance of downtown Wisconsin Dells. We would strongly recommend the Black Hawk Motel!

Hello Cathy, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review in regards to your recent stay with us! We appreciate all of our reviews and love hearing when we have met our guests expectations.
