The owner of property should check on their “investment”! Didn’t end up staying. They did refund my charges. We checked in at 12:00 am, no lights on property including room doors. Didn’t feel safe.

Check in was easy, staff super nice and easy to contact by text. Bed was super comfy. Ice machine broke 1st day there, not a huge deal. Need more bathroom shelves and small brooms to sweep. Limited tv channels, but not there to watch tv anyway. Another rug would be nice, cold floors. Nice stay overall.

If by “charm” you mean “deferred maintenance” Elkhorn has it in spades. A bathroom door that was falling off its hinges and wouldn’t close. A board on the porch loose enough to cause you to stumble. A lightbulb in the bathroom that kept flickering out. Missing or broken window coverings. The list goes on. And it was pretty dang expensive on top of all of it.

Rooms 21 & 22 had bed bugs. See attached photo-unable to attach... It was Memorial day weekend, so no rooms available and offered the second room -21 which was infested too. Only offered refund. We had to drive home which is 3+ hours away. We cannot believe the lack of concern for our granddaughter's bites. We've NEVER experienced this in our lives.

We have stayed here for years and loved it but this stay was so disappointing I called ahead regarding our cabin and assured we could stay there, nope was put in cabin next to housekeeping and laundry room. I had paid for the full day in advanced I was told that other cabin was available. During our 4 day stay we dealt with dryer exhaust, housekeeping bringing there dogs to work with them . The dogs roamed freely and one came on to our porch and lifted its leg on all the porch beams and our truck tires. Front desk young woman acted like it was my problem when I went to talk to her. My understanding is they have new owners and all I can say is they really need to get a handle on that property or they’re going to lose all of their regular clients
