My husband and I recently spent 2 weeks travelling through California on our vacation from Australia. Our last stop was Napa and friends suggested staying in St Helena (which is beautiful). I searched the internet for luxury accommodation in the area and luckily came across Black Rock Inn, located 5 mins from St Helena. It's always with mild trepidation that... More

We just celebrated a birthday in wine country and had the pleasure of staying at the Black Rock Inn! Everything was just perfect... from the moment we were greeted in the parking area by the owner Jeff, to the bag of scones he provided us for our early morning flight on the day of our departure! Great location for wine... More

Location overlooking vineyards on the Silverado Trail close to St. Helena could not have been better. Jeff has done a fabulous job renovating the house and landscaping the property. Views from anywhere on property were beautiful. Everything first rate. Jeff was a charming host who did a great job of setting us up with vineyard appointments. Hope to return soon.

The... More

Jeff's advise on travel routes and restaurants was invaluable. The room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. If you are looking for a quiet location that is "off the beaten... More

We recently stayed for 3 nights in Napa to celebrate my wife's Sommelier certification. Jeff was a fantastic host and spent a lot of time talking with us and pointing us at some wineries that he thought we would enjoy. Everything was clean and nice and Jeff was even gracious enough to share some of his fabulous wine collection with... More
