We could not have asked for a more perfect setting and experience for our special day.
The team at Black Bear Golf Club was a dream to work with for our wedding. They were incredibly responsive throughout the entire planning process, making sure every detail was taken care of. The venue itself is beautifully maintained, with amazing views and an elegant, sophisticated space. From our stay, rehearsal dinner, and thank you breakfast, to the wedding day itself, the entire staff was friendly, welcoming, and helped make the day stress-free. We could not have asked for a more perfect setting and experience for our special day. Highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for an unforgettable wedding celebration.
We would do it all over again at Black Bear, it was the best!
We had our wedding at Black Bear Golf Club and had the time of our lives! The venue is beautiful and the food is top notch. Lee and Kim made our day so seamless and smooth, and the entire staff was so friendly and professional. Everything from touring the venue, to signing the contract, to planning and coordinating for the big day was a breeze. We would do it all over again at Black Bear, it was the best!
Overall we had a great experience with Crystal Springs and I would highly recommend.
We hosted our wedding at the Black Bear Country Club and from start to finish everything was amazing! Julie was a huge help in securing the venue and details and then I was assigned Lee Wilde as my coordinator. Lee was lovely- she was always available, provided great support and ideas. On the wedding day, there were some weather concerns and she kept me very calm and attended to every need- even offering to run to Walmart for missing shirt cuffs! She was constantly checking in on me and making sure bridal suite was well stocked with food and champagne. Then Mark was our maiitre ‘d for the ceremony and although I was losing Lee, Mark was equally as helpful! He made sure all the timing was on point and also helped with weather concerns. I was so stressed but when Mark told me it would be ok- it was! He said we were going to wait out the storm and start later and that’s what we did - and not only did we get a beautiful rainbow but my dreams of the outdoor ceremony came true. Overall we had a great experience with Crystal Springs and I would highly recommend
