    Blue Bear Inn's accommodations and hospitality for our wedding party and family to stay was exceptional. The Inn was conveniently located near our wedding venue, so we booked all the rooms the night of the wedding and several the night before. The rooms are charming, updated, immaculate, with very comfortable beds. Clearly can see Carrie and Bob, the owners, take great care of their Inn and property. A special perk Blue Bear offers which we were thrilled to enjoy are their after-party space, food and beverage services. Having the Inn all to ourselves for the after party just added a wonderful extension to the wedding. Carrie was so friendly, accessible and helpful with the details coordinating arrivals who had needed to get ready for the wedding, providing platters to be taken to the wedding venue and the menu for the after party. Finally, guests enjoyed sitting outside with the picturesque view of the mountains and at the pool the following day to make it such a full weekend experience.

  • Beautiful wedding venue!!
