Black Bear Motel & RV Park
Auden Grumet (Auden L. Grumet, Esq.)
Ember and her husband were super helpful - especially considering it was their first week! Property needs major facelift. Has a ton of potential but is very run down.

While the room was clean and average, the management of the company is unreliable. We booked our room via a QR code and had to wait 2 hours after receiving a confirmation for a room code to get into our room. The email confirmation they were fully digital, so a room code response should have been immediate. We would not have know to call for a room code -- unless a person staying there told us what to do.

It was priced right, close to Salida and comfortable

We stayed in the RV spots and it was not crowde which was nice. The hosts were very nice and accommodating. Only negative was the prolific goats heads everywhere. Lots of birds and close to the river. Nice place.

We had a great stay at the Black Bear Motel in Howard. Friendly, helpful service and a quiet location. Convenient to nearby Salida too.

Great little park. Quiet and managers were extremely helpful. Easy access to main highway. We will be back.

We were in the area for the weekend for a high school baseball tournament. Booked an RV Spot online. When I arrived the Park Host guided me to our spot and he was very friendly and informative about the park and area. Our spot was in a nice quiet location. The park WiFi was good, and our spot was well kept. We enjoyed our short stay and hope to come back in the future.

Had a good time at this rv park. The hosts were great and very helpful. The place seemed very safe. Only issue at the property, I found, was the limited Verizon wireless signal. And the wifi was ok but not great coverage. I feel like if they set up a few more routers to spread the connectivity bubble it would be a lot better. And the lastly the place smelled a little like a sewer when I first got there. Once I told the host he said he needed to treat the septic tank. After he did that the nasty smell went away. I was thinking it was someone’s sewer connection from their rv smelling the area up. Another great thing would be to have the rv parking spots have more gravel. I didn’t like the dirt everywhere when I was walking around my rv. When I showered for the first time in my outdoor tent setup. There was a ton of dirt shooting up from the ground as I was showering. I guess if it was gravel it wouldn’t have been as dusty. Overall a nice little place. Just wish I had better connectivity.

From the beautiful location, lovely rooms, and amazing hosts, Black Bear is the place to stay! Meagan and Jared were incredibly accommodating, and check in was so easy! The trails around the property make for a lovely walk, and the dog park is such an awesome idea!! You could enjoy a vacation here without ever having to leave the property. Can’t recommend enough!!

We stayed here with our RV and dogs. The dog area was a god-send, and the sites are well maintained with all hookups needed. The sewage and water access points were a little far but the host was super helpful in getting us setup by providing extensions. The location is beautiful with peaks all around. Only 15 mins from Salida. Highly recommend!
