    Stayed overnight with a family of 5 at the main house. The two rooms upstairs were perfect for us. Kids stayed in the larger room with a rollaway bed. Plenty of room to move around. We had the whole house to ourselves as the third room downstairs was vacant for the night. They had a fire going in the fireplace that kept the house warm. The owners were accomodating during happy hour knowing that we had children. They provided kid friendly appetizers and drinks along with adult appetizers and drinks. Breakfast also was outstanding. The kids were happy. It snowed at night and in the morning the whole area was covered with fresh snow. We would have stayed another night but schedule didnt permit it. Definately stay again.

    We stayed at the off-site Woodside Condo after a long day at China Peak. When we arrived at the Elliott House, George (the owner) was waiting for us with keys and instructions to get to the condo.... and fresh baked brownies! The Condo was perfect for two people. We brought up food, and cooked dinner in the newly remodeled kitchen. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. Before checking out, we had already decided that we would be staying with the Elliott’s again. This condo was perfect for two people, given the size and layout; we would not recommend four people in that space. And they description mentions a bbq on the back patio. We were expecting a full size bbq, but it’s just a little smoky (weber). This was a bit of a hassle, but we made it work. All in all... We will definitely be staying here again.

    My wife and I decided on the Elliott House because we wanted something intimate and special. We did not want a sterile generic stay that you get from resorts or upscale hotels. Elliott House delivered. The main house in which we stayed had only 3 rooms so the time we spent in the house was quiet and comfortable. Our hosts were attentive but not intrusive and the food they prepared was right on the money. Having a cookie jar available 24-7 was a wonderful touch and the afternoon wine was terrific. I have to mention also that breakfasts were exceptional. We will definitely be back. Thanks Elliott House

    Nice place to Stay.

    It was a great get away for the weekend. The food was really good. The room was okay. The bed had a mattress that sunk in the middle, and the floors we noisey. We had a great time though and will go back for sure. Probably stay in a diffrent room other than the Sugar Pine Suite. Thank you Elliott House for making our first nights as husbad and wife one to remember.

    Innkeeper Response
    Our B&B was custom built over 60 years ago and features the original oak floors, which can be a little squeaky at times upstairs. It is part of the charm for some. On your next visit you might want to check out two of our other spa suites, Cedar and Sequoia. They too, like the Sugar Pine, feature feather beds, jetted tubs and fireplaces. Built just five years ago though we believe those cherry wood floors won't make a sound underfoot. Thank you for bringing the mattress to our attention. You are the first to point that out. We want all of our guests to have a restful night's sleep.
