    Great getaway!

    November 21, 2012

    We were fortunate to spend a week at Little Elk and enjoyed bringing our mini poodle with us. She loved the fenced yard, playing with the resident dogs, and challenging the goats! We chose the larger bedroom with the en suite bath for privacy and it was very comfortable. The large walk-in closet was a nice surprise since we had a week's worth of clothes and shoes. Double sink vanity was also a plus. WiFi was easy to access. Breakfast was always yummy. Only had 3 minor troubles: AT&T cell service is nonexistent; ear plugs were a must so the chiming clock in the great room didn't wake me repeatedly; and the door to our room did not lock. Don't miss eating cherry pie at the Cherry Pie place (your landmark on where to turn off the highway to the Lodge); and enjoy BBQ at Smokin' Dave's in Lyons.

    Quiet little place in the mountains.

    October 19, 2012

    We visited the Little Elk Mountain last weekend, and had a wonderful stay! The place was exquisite! Mary and Randy were wonderful hosts! We started our afternoon with some ice cream at the Colorado Cherry Co., had an amazing dinner at The Villa Tatra across the street, and spent a beautiful evening here. Mary mad an excellent breakfast and we enjoyed some great conversation with her and the other guests. We will most definitely be back!

    Perfect place if you want a little peace and quiet but still want to be within 10-15 minutes of Estes park, Lyons and Rocky Mt National Park. We stayed 4 nights and felt like family by the time we left. Very accomodating, friendly and helpful hosts. Beautiful B&B, breakfast every day was delicious! We took Randy's Brew class and had an absolute blast! Highly recommend!

    Lovely place, very comfortable.

    September 19, 2012

    our room was comfortable and well-supplied with everything we could need. The hostess was very accommodating of our needs. Our only complaint was that we wanted to use the hot tub, but we didn't realize that it needed over an hour to warm up.
