We’re Black Bear Lodge North, and we’ve been the full-service supporting lodge for The Site Firearms Training Center here in Mount Carroll, IL, since 1998. We specialize in law enforcement training and training for the law-abiding civilian community, offering levels from basic to advance tactical training. We also offer a variety of custom firearms training courses for families, friends, and corporations. All of our instructors are either professional law enforcement officers and police trainers, have Special Operations military backgrounds or are renowned National level professional competitors. The nation’s premier firearms training center is made better by the convenience of having deluxe accommodations just a short distance from the firing line. Our well-appointed rooms and private cabins offer guests a relaxing atmosphere to unwind after a day spent training on our ranges. We’re looking forward to providing professional training and accommodations for those within a 4-state area, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana and throughout the Midwest. We are available by reservation only. We’d like to personally invite you to call or email us to reserve your training and stay, today!
