Excellent location. Great experience overall. Host was responsive and added complementary late checkout to accommodate wide scale power outages. Would book again.

Lovely getaway!
The Ellis Retreat was clean, cozy, and a perfect location. It was walking distance to local coffee shops and markets, and very close to the little town and Commons Beach. It was well stocked with all necessities you need to have a comfortable stay! We would definitely come here again.
Had a great stay at the Ellis Retreat. Very easy check in and check out process and awesome location. Just had some issues trying to figure out the TV. Would come again.

Lovely home nestled against trails and forest
We loved the location and amenities -- walked to Tahoe House, hiked the trails behind the home, relaxed on the back patio and in the hot tub. The home was well equipped for our family of 6, including a private office area for WFH'ers.
