Amazing Place to Visit

This is an amazing place to stay. I travel a lot for business and have stayed a lot of places, and none has been cleaner, more hospitable and have historic charm as The Elk Mountain Hotel. The restaurant prepares wonderful food, there is a VERY extensive bar/cocktail menu and the entire property is meticulously cared for. While enjoying a drink on the balcony we were able to watch 5 whitetail deer which grazed right in the front yard. Easy 10 out of 10.

Susanne was a one-gal show. She checked us in; gave us a cocktail menu; provided our meals with courtesy and a smile—-just a wonderful asset! B/T/W: The last question is incredibly devisive, sexist and racist (why does the question not ask about appropriateness for Anglo, Canadian, Native American, Hetero and male travelers for example?). This property is good for all types of travelers; however, given its age, physically impaired persons may have difficulty with the stairs.

This property is amazing! It is tucked away off the beaten path and is so beautiful amongst the trees. The gal who runs the Hotel, Lauren, is the absolute best, caring for her guests with impeccable care and attention. She is the backbone to this lovely hotel that offers meals in a delicious on-site restaurant. Unfortunately, I have recently become someone who requires special foods and a specific diet to remain healthy and she accommodated very well with both meals we enjoyed with this facility. The rooms are very quaint and comfortable, maintaining the beauty of the hotel that has been there as a hotel since 1905 I think we were told. Would definitely stay here again on our way through this part of the country, we were not disappointed on any level!

Great stay at this place. The rooms are a little small, but that's just a part of being an old hotel. Food was excellent. The hotel was a great surprise after the drive thru this little old town.

The house was very nicely furnished and the bed was comfortable. Our room had its own bathroom that was very clean and up to date. The only downside is the area where the hotel is located has tons of mosquitoes. If you want to walk outside make sure you have bug spray. There is no place to eat for miles so you need to tell the owner you will be eating dinner there if you want. Breakfast is a set time so again if you want to eat get down at the time they say.
