We visited this with our 2 young kids and it was a perfect stay! Without the price and crowds of a big waterpark, this place worked very well for us. Our kids loved the indoor and outdoor pools. There was also a game room to play in. The room itself was clean and cozy. And you can't beat the price.... More

Thank you so much for your review! We're glad that we provided the ideal base camp for your "girls weekend". We are just 4 blocks for downtown Wisconsin Dells, yet still only within about 4 miles of all the major attractions that the Wisconsin Dells area offers. We hope to accommodate you again during 2012 and thanks for recommending the... More

Yes it's old but the service is great and staff friendly. I love sitting outside and talking to all the other guests. It's also a very short walk to the downtown area. More

Thank you for your review! It's great to hear that you are one of our many repeat guests. It's a battle in today's tough ecomony to compete with all the mega resorts and chains...however as my Mother always said..."if we provide a clean room at a reasonable price with a few pools, we'll be ok".

We decided that we wanted to go to the Dells for our 5 year anniversary, but we were on a tight budget. We wanted a hotel/motel that was a good value but most importantly, we wanted a clean room. After much research, I discovered Black Hawk. There were so many reviews and so many positive that I knew that this... More

This motel dates back to the goodold days of the 50-60's, but has been updated...even includes wireless internet. The rooms were neat and clean as were all the grounds. There is an indoor pool and hot tub for cooler weather. The manager was very helpful in dinner recommendations and even gave us a discount card which included one free boat... More

My parents started to sell the cottages in 1959 and started building motel rooms, however today we still have some of these cottages which are some... More

This review is being written a few years behind schedule. In 2006, we visited the Dells for the first time, staying at the Indian Trails Motel which just happens to be located right across the street from Blackhawk. The staff was dismissive and the rooms moldy smelling, so we searched Trip Advisor when planning our next trip in 2007 for... More

It is an older style one story U-shaped motel with the indoor pool in the middle with hot tub and sauna. The waterpark was a slide a the deeper end of the pool. The hot tub was too hot to comfortably... More
