Liz is an amazing hostess. The property is located beside the wind river and has a beautiful park like setting where s’more‘s are served up nightly.

Rustic, friendly Inn.
Room was clean, but small. barely get around king sized bed. I would have preferred a queen with a little more room. Nice friendly , rustic atmosphere. Common area on riverfront with firepit. My husband missed air conditioning, but I thought it was comfortable without.

Super friendly owner and cozy motel
It is a motel so we got to park right in front of our room. The room was nice and comfy. Wifi was poor but this was expected in the mountains. Nice touches such as the towels and toilet paper folded, graham crackers with teddy bears and chocolates sprinkled around, and a bear shaped bar of soap. Loved the s'mores, swings and the river. Owner was welcoming and chatty.

8/10 Very good

Even though it is old, I liked the character of Black Bear Inn. Sometimes I like to steer away from the typical hotel, and stay at locally owned places. It felt homey and cozy to me, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

The staff was friendly and the rooms were clean and quiet. It was probably the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in.

Unplug, unwind, and find your happy place
This place is magical! From one-of-a-kind ambiance, to nightly smores round the campfire, its truly a unique experience. Each room has a theme and stories to back them up, to which the owner loves to share (one of the nicest gals ever). Its truly a family affair here! Layout is like a motel with free parking right outside your door. No cable but plenty of old school vhs rentals available in the office (for FREE, plus popcorn to make in your room too) and excellent wi-fi for your personal devices. Nothing too fancy here... just old fashioned rustic charm that will remind you of days gone by and fill your heart with joy. So unplug, unwind, dip your feet in the stream, and enjoy!! Oh, and look out for the occasional traveling musicians cause they just may break out their guitar and share a few songs for ya come sundown ;-)

Great stay
Do not let the looks deceive you. It is an older hotel but the charm alone is worrh the stay. My wife and I live in Las Vegas and are accustomed to fancy hotels, but we loved the rustic nature of this motel. The room was exceptionally clean and homie and Liz the owner was very welcoming and made sure our stay was enjoyable.if your anywhere near Dubois Wy and want a comfortable, charming motel don't pass up the black bear in.

Home away from home
Friendly, welcoming owner as we arrived later in the evening. Room was smaller, but comfortable. Didn’t have as many electric outlets as newer motels, but we managed. No breakfast provided (e knew that when we booked), but nice table and chairs to eat our breakfast we brought. Everything was clean and seemed like staying at your mom’s home! Stayed here once a number of years ago and would stay again. Easy trip once we left Yellowstone.

GREAT STAY at BLACK BEAR INN
The Black Bear Inn is a charming multi-generational family run motel right on the Wind River. We loved it and it is run by great people. The flyshop is a great bonus! Highly recommend both.

Felt like staying at Grandmas. Both good & bad.
It was fine. Felt very clean but dated.

Great night in western Wyoming
We were there just one night on our way to Idaho. It was a perfect place to spend the evening. My husband and son went on a flyfishing trip with a guide that does free flyfishing lessons daily in the parking lot at 5:00pm. My daughter and I were able to walk the downtown and had a wonderful meal at the Cowboy Cafe. The Black Bear Inn offered a campfire with s'mores and games at 8:00pm. The office had a lot of items, from movies and games, to books, to give you something to do in your downtown. We would stay there again.

Great place
This is a hotel that is very cared for by the owner. The room was homey, not a hotel room. The owner was friendly and professional. Plus they had a fire and smores everynight of our stay. 10/10 will stay again.
