Guest Reviews

My husband and I celebrated our recent wedding with a long weekend at Black Star and we were very impressed. Sara and David were such lovely, accommodating hosts and breakfast/hospitality hours were a real treat. If you need a special place to stay in the area, look no further. We will absolutely be back.

EV charging was essential to allow to explore each day as charging infrastructure is very limited in the area.
