Walk to Lifts! Skier's Black Mountain Base Camp

Jessi made a huge difference as our coordinator for the wedding weekend. She worked closely with our planner Lauren Wilson Events and helped everything run smoothly, even as we dealt with a change in ownership after signing the event contract. We felt cared for all weekend. Joe and Sarah helped coordinate our guests' stays and handle smaller concerns, and Mark made a special arrangement for my mother in law's pet so she could attend without being extremely anxious. Linda, the lead bartender, was attentive to us and our guests and made sure we stayed hydrated. The grounds are lovely, and the Shovel Handle Pub food was superb. Our favorites were the sirloin tips and salmon. Some of the rooms could use a little improvement in space, lighting, or design, though our guests found them perfectly comfortable. The new owners and longtime staff like Joe seem to care about the property and are working to improve it. Since I got to know Whitney's Inn, the common areas inside and out have changed from looking like they hadn't been updated since 1993 to modern, comfortable spaces our family enjoyed. On our first visit under the former owner, an old couch nearly swallowed us. We had our wedding at Whitney's Inn in October 2025 and stayed that weekend after several earlier family trips. I look forward to visiting each year and seeing how the new team brings it all together.
