My wife, Lisa, and I had a wonderful weekend at The Black Gate Loft. Annette was tremendously helpful in facilitating our arrival and made us feel very welcome. The Black Gate Loft was better than described - just secluded enough, breathtaking views, with all the amenities we needed to enjoy a quiet weekend away. Maps were available with detailed information regarding hiking trails for all levels of hikers. We absolutely will plan to stay here again, and anyone considering this location should welcome the opportunity to have The Black Gate Loft as your home away from home.
