Beautiful views

Beautiful cabin, accurate listing. Short drive to Ellicottville which has a lot of cool little shops and restaurants, and of course Holiday Valley Ski Resort. Why stay in a resort with just beds when you can stay in a house for the same cost?!? Very comfortable beds, and the views are amazing! Would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves back in the area. Responsive hosts, 5 stars for sure!

Great Holiday

We enjoyed a second time here at the Chalet, this time for a whole week just after Christmas. It is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature and still be close enough to Ellicottville and Holiday Valley. The views are stunning. We enjoyed using the fireplace and the well-outfitted kitchen. We actually only ate one meal in a restaurant which saved some real money and time. The owners are kind and wonderful at communicating with the guests. I would definitely recommend a stay for a long weekend or a full week, if possible. Thanks, Joanne and Robin

Nice place

We had a weekend stay to go skiing at Holiday Valley. No snow, so that was a bummer. Travel to the resort is 8.3 miles, about 15 minutes. The travel is so worth the privacy. Chalet was very nice..greaty layout with lots of room. Beautiful wrap around deck! Washer/dryer was great to have. Kitchen could've had a little better amenities. Outside was a little disappointing...cans and candy wrappers around; pond unkept; sleds just laying around; driveway could've used more stone (kinda muddy); chairs around outside firepit were very old. We are big outdoorsy people who like to be outdoors...yes, even in winter. Oh, and please oil the screen door. All in all, we enjoyed our stay.

Magical location.

This spacious home has 3 levels with sizable bedrooms in each, (especially the lower floor). The whole place overlooks an immense landscape of extraordinary natural beauty. Enjoying our morning coffee & breakfast on the wrap around veranda while our small dog explored the grounds was perfect. Taking in the evening sunset from the comfort of the living room through the large windows flanking the large fireplace was just as delightful. We were even given logs so we could enjoy the fire-pit, which was a lovely treat. We did discover a few unexpected issues & promptly contacted the owners about them, all but one was fully resolved during our stay. It was fairly effortless to reach them when needed & they were always helpful & courteous in their response. Visiting Niagara Falls is easy & a must. The same is true for Griffis Sculpture Park, it's uniquely gorgeous. The staff there were exceptionally friendly & sweet with us. You'll need to stock up on groceries which is simple enough as the stores are a relatively short drive away. If you're looking for sanctuary within beautiful, quiet, private, ample surroundings, this is it. I would've liked the place to have been a little cleaner & for certain appliances to have worked better, but the owners were responsive & the location & general living layout make this a stay worth experiencing.

This was the perfect location for a long weekend! Very quiet, private, and the VIEWS! It’s only an 11 minute drive to Ellicotville. I know Ellicotville is Ski Country, and this would be the perfect stay for you! But, the 70 degree weather in late summer early fall is gorgeous too! The porch and all the seating! This place had 5 beds and a futon that were all very cozy. Large TV in the living room and an even bigger one on the bottom floor so don’t forget the kiddos gaming systems! Kitchen has everything you would need. The charcoal grill was clean and cooked some very delicious steak! The hosts (Stephanie and Frank) were very responsive and had all the answers to any of our needs or questions. Highly recommend! Will definitely be back. Thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!

The property is tucked out in the hills with a great view across the valley with great sunsets watching the clouds pass by through the awesome floor to ceiling windows. Check in was easy. Got settled in and had two questions that were answered quickly by the hosts. Will definitely be a return VRBO when we come back into town.

Beautiful view and very spacious house. Perfect house and location to just sit back and relax. Location was so serene and quiet, it was the perfect location to decompress.Beds were comfortable, and house amenities supplied made stay seamless. Enough room for 8 people with 2 beds in loft and 2 beds downstairs, but we only stayed on main level because there was only 2 of us. Centrally located 1-2 hours away from Niagra Falls, Canada or Wakins Glen in the finger lakes. Nice dog park, the Sculpture park, Walmart , town shops , cafes, and breweries all within15-20 minutes.If you come for skiing, your in the right spot, with ski trails all around. The people in town are friendly and the Ellicotville Brewery allows dogs at their outdoor tables. Try their Blueberry beer. Niagra Falls Canada outside walkways and parks are also dog friendly- just bring proof of current rabies vaccination. Only negative was the placement of outside fire pit, which was only 5 feet away from tall meadow grass.I'd definitely recommend this house, and come back. The negative 1 point was minuscule compared to the positive.

Great getaway spot

This is our second year staying at the cabin for New Year’s. There were 6 adults. We had plenty of space. All the amenities you need are in the cabin. It’s a bit of a drive to Ellicotville (10 minutes) but we don’t mind that. I wish the skiing would have been better but otherwise another great way to spend new year’s!

This chalet was perfect for our girls weekend! It was so cute and cozy. We loved sitting by the fireplace in the living room with the beautiful views of the snowy hills all around us. If it is snowy when you come, definitely make sure you have snow tires/four wheel drove: the roads to get up here are quite windy and hilly. The only negative about the house was the TVs. No regular TV channels come in, and we were told streaming services were available, but the only thing we could use was Netflix which did not have a great connection and had to reload the movie/show often. We tried casting from a phone/iPad and eventually figured out through googling that this TV model does not support Apple devices. Besides the TVs though, the house was great!

An Enchanting Stay!

My family and I - my wife, son and daughter-in-law, and two grandsons - spent a week at this East Otto chalet, and the accommodations were just perfect! The loft bedroom was perfect for both boys and the first - floor king room was perfect for my wife and I. My son and daughter-in-law settled in nicely downstairs with the queen bed, futon, and large-screen TV. There was a window-mounted AC unit in every bedroom that cooled the Chalet nicely all week. When we travel, we cook together because we all enjoy cooking and sharing meals together, especially at breakfast. The kitchen worked out just fine, with the tabletop griddle and plenty of pots, pans and accessories. We drove to Niagara Falls twice, first for the Maid of the Mist and the Cave of the Winds, then back two days later for a great dinner at The Red Coach Inn in Niagara Falls, NY, then for the Falls light show and fireworks display. Griffis Sculpture Park is a fun place for hiking. There are three trails - green, blue, and red - and you get rewarded along the trail with all the interesting sculptures to discover. Spend an afternoon touring Ellicotville (EVL to the locals). Great little shops and several good restaurants like Katy's Cafe', for lunch. Afterward, take a stroll through the Nannen Arboretum. There are plenty of options for shopping in Springville, as well. It's only nine miles from the Chalet. And there's so much more nearby that we simply didn't have time to see and do. You'll have fun if you go!
