    The Black Dog Inn was perfect for us, away from busy crowds of downtown but close enough to everything. Good restaurants and Rocky Mountain National Park close by. Our stand alone Mt. Olympus suite was immaculate and had all the amenities that anyone could desire, jacuzzi tub, fireplace, privacy, quiet and plenty of room. The suggestions for dining were right on and Sheree and Carlos went out of their way to help us plan our continuing Colorado vacation. We would highly recommend staying here to visit the Rockies and see Estes Park. Susan & Jim We will return!!

    We had our family reunion here with 6 in attendance. The accommodations were great, the food was great, the location was great and our dog DUKE also thought it was great. I highly recommend this Bed & Breakfast. THe owners are very helpful in assisting you with locations for meals and day trips. The quality of the food was way above expectations. The cottages are clean, well furnished, quiet and very enjoyable. This is a great place to spend a long weekend.

    We stayed at the Black Dog Inn for our honeymoon. This was our first bed and breakfast experience. It was an experience that has encouraged us to do the B&B thing again - it was wonderful! We stayed in the Sunset Mountain Suite, and the room was beautiful, cozy, and had all of the ammenities that we could ask for in our room including a huge hot tub, mini fridge, and an EXTREMELY comfortable bed. The room was always cleaned promptly in the morning, and the grounds of the inn were very well kept. The food was AMAZING! We were actually excited to get up and go to breakfast in the morning :) Carlos and Sheree made sure that we felt comfortable and enjoyed our stay - not only at the inn, but in all of Estes Park. They were happy to offer suggestions for dinner and places to visit. They are so kind and really appreciated everything they did to make our stay perfect. If we had one wish, we would have liked a little bigger window coverings in our room for the evening - they didn't quite cover the entire window to the edges, and the window looks onto a deck that is a little close. Other than that, a place we would love to visit again!

    The Black Dog Bed and Breakfast is a quiet little piece of property within walking distance to downtown, the lake and park. We enjoyed the out door sitting areas as well as several amenities like the professional Grill we used one night as we cooked steaks for a outside dinner beside the outdoor fire pit. The Stars are brilliant at night. The Black Dog has a great section of movies and restaurant menus to view as well as individual attention to requests. Thanks so much We had a great time.
