We stay in the new section and the beds are very comfortable and there are lots of pillows. The room is fairy large but wished they had a fridge in them. The rooms are very reasonable and black Bear is only twenty minutes from Duluth. The breakfast buffet is my favorite. The bacon and caramel rolls are to die for.... More

When we checked into casino hotel the desk clerk was the snooty little b---- and of course her name tag was backwards so you couldn't see it after we got our rooms which was suppose to be a queen size suite we walked in and it was so dirty with stains on the carpet and lamp shades,holes in the ceiling,...

This place is great! Wonderful and rennovated rooms, great pool that is open all night, and the restaurants have the best food I've had in years! The breakfast buffet cost $5 pp.... I couldn't believe it! The steakhouse was extremely impressive.... Food was to die for! Just don't try to bring alcohol into the hotel from the gaming floor as... More

I end up staying at Black Bear about once a year on business because the hotel is much cheaper than any Duluth option. The hotel itself is very nice. Comfortable beds, not noisy, and the non-smoking rooms don't smell. The casino portion is another story. There is no mojo. No excitement. Just a large space crammed with slots. I'm not... More

We stayed at the Black Bear Casino for a wedding reception. Building and room were both very, very smoky. But otherwise the room was clean and nicely decorated. Check-in was extremely fast even though there was a line. All the staff we came into contact with was very friendly and helpful. For $52 a night we couldn't have asked for... More

If you like slot machines, then this is the place for you! Otherwise, you are out of luck. Big open spaces and a nice new look since the update. Only a hand full of video poker machines. The tables are tucked in the corner and there are only a few of those as well. The whole place is basically slots.

We came to see Rick Springfield in concert. We used the Valet Parking when we arrived. They took real good care of us. Checking in went real good. We got $3.00 off food. When arriving to our room I was very pleased. We had lunch at the Steak House. Very Good. When we went to the Player's Club to get... More

Wow. I was really impressed! Traveled here with my wife and 2 small boys for a family event. The room was VERY clean and comfortable. And it is a extraordinary value. This is my new place to stay when I travel to the Duluth area. Cant comment on the gambling since we don't gamble. The pool was nice.

We stayed at Black Bear Casino on 2/19/2012. Upon walking in, a valet driver was not looking where he was going and nearly backed a van into my guest and I. They certainly need to be more observant. The check in went smoothly with little wait time and friendly service. My guest and I also each received a #3 off... More
