Beautiful location and property for a staff retreat!
We had a great time at the property for our hospital retreat. Our staff was able to relax and have lots of different areas to hang/chill - hottubs, game room, lobby, back patio, etc. Everyone having separate rooms more like a hotel was also great! Would go back.

Wonderful Large Reunion Option
We have a group of 35 and finding a location that is well-kept, beautiful and BIG ENOUGH is becoming more and more challenging. Black Diamond Lodge checked all of these boxes. The check-in was amazing. They were very attentive to us and our needs but also gave us plenty of space to enjoy our stay. Any problems that we encountered we quickly addressed and fixed. I understand that the property is getting another water heater...that is a must. I would also encourage an updated WIFI situation as that was pretty spotty and made communication a challenge. Otherwise, our stay was absolutely FANTASTIC!!! We hope to book the same time and place in the future and hope to make many more memories there. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
