We were in Ellicottville for a family ski trip, and this chalet was in the ideal location for us. It offered all the benefits of being in the country/woods without feeling too remote. It is a very short drive to downtown Ellicottville and all it offers, including Holiday Valley Ski Resort. It is also particularly close to Holiday Valley Tubing Company if you also plan to do some snow tubing. Perched on a hillside, the house offers beautiful views from the living room and kitchen of the opposite field and forest, and we enjoyed watching the deer at dawn and dusk. The chalet was clean and charmingly decorated, and the kitchen was well accommodated. Every essential detail (and more) was covered, and we found this to be a very comfortable, cozy place when we weren't on the slopes. Our two children loved the bunkbeds in the loft, and it was very convenient to have a master bath just off the main bedroom downstairs that we did not need to share with the children. All in all, it's a lovely place, and we found Bob to be a clear, friendly, and responsive communicator. We hope to return again.
