Perfect Getaway

The house was spacious, comfortable, and clean. We enjoyed spending time in the screened in porch and down by creek. It was a relaxing setting with privacy, but not too far from town. A perfect getaway!

Perfect place for a ski getaway

We had an amazing time at this house. The pictures online doesn't do it justice. When we arrived the place was very clean which is important to me. The house was nicely decorated and I even loved one of the pictures so much, I ordered it and sent it to my son for his ski house. My 11 year old step-son loved the bunk room and foosball table. When we arrived, there was an issue with the heat, but I still think this was a 5 star stay because the owner was so responsive and head a tech there the same day. We used the gas fireplace until it was fixed so it wasn't a big deal. The kitchen was well stocked for us to cook at the house and it was very spacious. The house is about 7 min from Holiday Valley so the location was perfect. We will definitely rent this house again!

Bachelorette celebration

It was a great experience! There were 8 of us for 2 nights over a weekend. The house is beautiful and spacious and the property is very peaceful. We enjoyed the town, the Alpaca farm and gift shop, and the Salt Cave among other things. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it.

My family and I have been coming to Ellicottville for years to ski and play. We fell in love with the region and are excited to share our experience with others. Feel free to reach out for local recommendations, as there's so much fun to be had in this year-round destination!

We also enjoy traveling ourselves and exploring other corners of the world. Being outside, live music and finding local gems are some of our favorites.
