Fun place!

We stayed for a long weekend to attend a family gathering in Allegany with four kids ages 5-10 and 5 adults. The kids had fun with all the games, the backyard and the firepit. It was great being right downtown and able to walk to anything. Spent a day at Sky High Adventures which was all of a five minute drive. Everything we needed was stocked and the host was very responsive. Highly recommend this property!

Much Needed Reunion

This was a reunion of old friends many years in the making. Ellicottville is a place many of us have visited but never as a group. Location was key to this group and the Chair Lift Lodge hit the mark. Prime location, every amenity we could need and plenty of space. Tony made the time leading up to our stay seamless and was quick to respond throughout. This house is on wish list for when the snow start falling. MJ

Girls' Weekend Fun

Chairlift Lodge was a wonderful get away for myself and 6 girlfriends. The house was very clean and there was plenty of room for all of us. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and the a/c units really came in handy in August! There's also plenty of seating outdoors including a fire pit that we thoroughly enjoyed! The real appeal of this house is the location! It's right in town so it's a very short walk to the restaurants, shops, and grocery store. We stayed on a busy weekend (Taste of EVL) and I was slightly worried that the noise from town would be heard at the house, but not at all! It was very quiet. Overall, I'd highly recommend this house for an adult getaway!
