About this property

The Mays Place Bed and Breakfast whole house option

Our historic home was built in 1890 by Robert Mays for his lovely new bride. The home has been maintained in near original fashion. Take a step back in time and enjoy antiques, the old fashion pull toliet, a half acre of landscaped yard and a variety of wildlife.
Although we are a bed and breakfast we also rent the full home for families and large groups. We are flexible and willing to accommodate guest needs, advise of local attractions and have an offsite location to board your horses.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great location and a unique home with lots of different antique furnishings. We rented full house with one couple and five singles (7). Traveling on motorcycles with a one night stay in Elgin. Would definitely recommend a stay.

Family Reunion

We rented the whole house for a family reunion in Elgin. We had all five rooms filled with family and the main reunion was at a ranch just out of town. The house was amazing it. It had everything that we needed and all of the eclectic decoration was right up my alley!

We rented the whole house for 8 family members. It worked out fantastically. The house is clean, stocked with all the basic necessities and well appointed with so many treasures to see! Stacy is a great host, very congenial and a pleasure to deal with. We will do it again when the occasion arises!
