A Gem in the Black Hills!!

This is the second time I've stayed at the Black Forest Inn Bed and Breakfast, and quite honestly, I would never stay anywhere else while visiting the Black Hills! Todd and Shelly go out of their way to ensure your comfort ! Their hospitality is off the charts... you feel more like a welcomed old friend than as a hotel guest! Shelly's breakfasts are "Don't Miss Em'". I've met other travelers during my stays there that have been a pleasure to be around. All in all... You will love your stay there!

We will come back!! This B&B was in a perfect location to see all of the historic sites. The room was beautiful, the breakfast was delicious and the owners were wonderful. We had the room with a hot tub and after a day of hiking and sightseeing that was a great way to end to the day!!

The hosts/owners of this B & B are exceptional and make you feel welcome the minute you enter the door. They have done a fantastic job of renovating and updating this B & B. Our room was lovely and all the common areas were done perfectly to make guests feel welcome and appreciated. Loved our stay and would go back again in a heartbeat.
