Went to Stillwater for a day for some rest and relaxation. Had a restful and wonderful time. The cheese and homemade crackers were delicious as well as the breakfast. It was so nice and quiet and the owners were very friendly and hospitable.

Stayed for one night at the Elephant Walk and it was perfect. Room was very cool, with wine, fruit, cheese, and homemade bread waiting for you upon arrival. We had no issues with noise, and they served a beautiful multi-course breakfast at a reasonable time in the morning (around 9:00 am, I believe). Will definitely be back.

June 11, 2013
This beautiful Victorian B&B was a nice respite for my wife and I on our 10th Wedding Anniversary. What you don't see on their website is the beautiful gardens and trees on this property. The owners travel frequently to Thailand/Asia and the B&B decor reflects this. There is definitely a calm, zen like feeling to the place with lots of water elements throughout the house and gardens. Breakfast was delicious. I'm an introvert and was surprised to enjoy chatting and socializing with the other guests and the owners at breakfast. I would highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Elephant Walk. The owners were awesome as well as the food. The only downside was the crappy weather, so we weren't able to enjoy the deck on the garden room. Very unique and interesting rooms.

I had never been to a bed and breakfast before, and the Elephant Walk was beyond incredible. I cannot wait to go back at least three more times so I am able to experience each room.
4.6 out of 5Perfect weekend getaway
May 28, 2013
Most b&b rooms are not spacious. This one is. The best part of this room was out own private outside patio. Rita was super nice and friendly- you can tell they love what they do and put extra care into every detail. Breakfast was delicious - and classy. I appreciated that they asked for any dietary needs and were able to fill our requests for gluten free. The bottle of wine, friut and cheeses was an added bonus to our stay.

This was my second stay at The Elephant Walk and it was just as enjoyable as the last. The Cadiz Suite is perfect to kick-back and relax for a few days. The rooftop terrace offers a perfect place to watch the stars and enjoy a bottle of wine. The four-course breakfast is delicious and fills you up for most of the day. I would highly recommend staying with Mike and Rita.
