Additional Helene Information - Opportunity to Donate
Montreat and WNC has been significantly impacted by Tropical Storm Helene. The lodge had several inches of storm water incursion through all 1st floor spaces including 8 guest rooms, hallway, office, lobby, kitchen, and dining room. Thanks to a group from Greensboro, all carpets have been removed and the back patio has been cleared of mud and debris. This group also came a few weeks later to move furnishings and remove the damaged stairway behind the lodge which connected the lodge and the cottage.
All guest groups have been postponed until February 2025. We are in process of contacting all groups and individuals to process changes and adjust reservations as appropriate. If you have not heard from us, please give a call.
WBL staff is back at work. We have relocated our office to one of the SC Inn apartments. All systems are back up and operational. So, please give a call or email if you need anything, need to check your reservations, or make a donation.
We welcome any financial support you might provide as William Black Lodge seeks to move forward through yet another challenging event. If you have made a reservation that was cancelled due to the storm, you can donate your deposit as a gift to the lodge. If you wish for your deposit to be returned, this has been or soon will be processed.
WBL also appreciates any financial donation to help during this challenging time. Currently you can make your reservation by check - please send to William Black Lodge - P.O. Box 819 Montreat, NC 28757. All donations are tax deductible.
We appreciate your prayers and support.
Peace -
Rev. Tommy Brown, Director William Black Lodge
