Jackpine & Black Bear Lodge

Outdated, loose drawers etc. Blind topper on two windows falling off. Just looks and feels too worn. Functional and certainly couldn't be closer to lift. Owners need to undertand it's time to invest in some tlc for their unit out of respect for their customer.

The BBL is in a great location. That is where the good things end. There is one tiny elevator that runs super slow for the whole building. The furniture in the rooms is old and worn out. The couch and chairs are falling apart in the living room sagging, uncomfortable, not relaxing. The beds are even worse. Every bed felt like the mattress was never good quality and hasn't been replaced in 20 years. Check out is at 10 AM. In the Past we have parked in the garage and our room key still provided access to the common area and garage for the day. Check in isn't until 4, but we were told if we wanted to ski Keystone we needed to move our vehicle to the free public parking. For the cost of the room, we will just drive from Breck. Accommodations, and EVERYTHING are better. We tried :(

My husband, 14 yo daughter and I stayed her for 3 nights in January. The location absolutely cannot be beat. We were able to walk everywhere and the lift was an extremely short walk away. Ski school, restaurants and shops were all an easy walk. There is a great little coffee house downstairs where you can get breakfast and sandwiches. There were no really great restaurants in the immediate area, but we were able to make it work. This was a ski vacation, not an eating adventure, so we were okay with it. The condition of the condo itself was typical for a ski or beach condo. Not luxury, but clean enough and comfortable. We didn't cook so I'm not sure how well the kitchen was stocked. Beds were reasonably comfortable. The lockers downstairs made ski in ski out very convenient. There was also a nice little community sitting area on the first floor. That was handy when there was no place to sit at the coffee house and we didn't want to go up to our condo. Views from our room were beautiful. It was a really nice stay! A little pricey, but the convenience made it worth the money.

It was incredibly roomy, with a bedroom and a pull out bed in the living room. It was well stocked with board games, although the scrabble game was missing some tiles. The fireplace was easy to operate and warmed up the room a bit. The kitchen was fairly spacious, equipped with a microwave, stove, dishwasher and a large refrigerator. Probably the best part about renting here was that it was close to the gondola in the village. The owners were very nice, and allowed my family and I to hold on to a room key past check out time to access the garage after we boarded for our last day of the vacation. My family and I would rent from here again in the future!

Our nephew loves in Keystone, and we came here for his wedding. We stayed in Jack Pine lodge, and enjoyed the surrounding village, shops, and restaurants. The views are awesome! It's is dog friendly in the village, but each condo is NOT, so you need to ask ahead of time.|We had to leave our dog in our Motorhome at night, and just take her out for walks during the day. This ad not ideal, but we didn't know ahead of time. We could not get wifi from our condo, even after|Calling internet assistance. The condo was nice and beautifully decorated. There is no air conditioning, and it was hit during the day. We stayed the last week in August. Nights are cook, and there was a fan to place in the window. Overall we enjoyed our stay here.

We rented #8022 in July 2018. This condo was 3 BR, 2 Bath. This unit was on the 4th floor, accessible by elevator. I have been told that there are absolutely no air conditioned units in Keystone, CO. This unit had no AC, BUT it did have three ceiling fans which were very helpful! The ceiling fans are located in the main living area and two of the three bedrooms. There is a stocked kitchen with a bar, dining table, several TVs and very comfortable seating in the living area. The beds were great, also. At the time we were there, the building was having roof work done. We weren't in the unit during the construction work day, except for a short period of time. It is always a great idea to verify no construction work is scheduled at the time of your visit. Keystone is excellent. This JACK PINE building's front door opens onto a main street with shops and restaurants all along the street. ||||We did not use any services. If you want maid service and you stay less than five days, you need to pay for it. Complimentary towels are available. While we were there, the hot tub was closed due to the roof construction. Due to the fire risk, there is absolutely NO smoking allowed in the building or even the entire resort. Although Colorado has legalized pot, we did not smell it at all during our time there. Likely due to the fires in some areas. We did not smell any smoke related to the fires either. ||||Free underground parking available - we used it every time. There are luggage racks and shopping carts available near the parking garage elevators to load / unload to your condo. ||||This was a beautiful unit and we would love to stay here again! There were room fans and humidifiers in the closets. We did use a fan. July is known to be hot. Even in the mountains, the temps were warm inside the condo. The fans made the indoor temps bearable. The temps really cooled off in the evenings / overnight. We left some windows open overnight. ||||You do not check in at the building itself. It essentially has no lobby. You check in at a central facility. The staff was very helpful and we had no issues. The one thing I would change is that there are two bedrooms that have no window screens on the windows. I would put screens on all the windows. THANKS, Jack Pine!

we LOVED the location of Jack Pine and the lodge is very nice! Our cabin (8006) was really nice, but not stocked well at all. One glass bowl, one plastic bowl for food storage, no spices, no muffin tin, no crockpot... This was a "premier" cabin so I expected it to be stocked better. We flew into Denver so I couldn't bring anything from home with me. ||||Aside from that, our stay was great! We loved our time in Keystone!

We took our family of 5 to Keystone for a 4 day weekend of skiing and stayed at the lovely Jack Pines Lodge. It was a little pricey but worth the money! We were able to store all of our ski equipment in lockers right by the exit of the lodge. The ski lift was a very short walk from the door of the lodge. The lodge was clean and the staff was very friendly. My kids used the hot tub and enjoyed fireworks on Saturday night! Only drawback was the treadmill in the very tiny fitness room was broken.
