About this property

One of the Best Views in All of Ellicottville!!

Location! Location! Location!

This fully-furnished, immaculate home is perfect for two to three families to enjoy with a finished basement (for the kids!) and a warm, inviting fireplace and infrared sauna to warm yourselves after a full day of skiing, hiking, golfing or enjoying any one of the many Ellicottville activities. Our place is ideally suited for multi-generation or multi-family reunions or get togethers. While we invite you to enjoy your stay at our place, we are not attempting to attract large, hard core party groups (no offense!!). This house sits up on the hill across from the Holimont Ski Resort (a private resort on weekends, but open to public during the week) and you can actually watch the skiers glide down the slopes from the balcony, deck or porch of this 6 bedroom chalet.

Holimont is located in Ellicottville, a charming resort town just 51 miles south of Buffalo, New York. In addition to Holimont, the Holiday Valley Ski Resort is only minutes away, about two miles from the premises. Enjoy the local restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner and shopping in downtown Ellicottville, only a mile away, within walking distance, or head over to the Seneca Casino about 7 miles away for dinner, casino fun and live entertainment.

In the summertime, relax and enjoy yourself with golfing at Holiday Valley or challenge yourself at the the Sky High adventure zip-line course. Ride the mountain coaster, go hiking, mountain biking, or enjoy one of three swimming pools at Tamarack, the new condominium at Holiday Valley. If being outdoors is what you love, Letchworth State Park or Allegany State Park are just a short distance from Ellicottville. The surrounding hills are breathtaking and in the fall, the colorful foliage is so incredibly brilliant that it must be seen to be believed! A trip to Niagara Falls is only about 1 hour away... an easy day trip! You will truly feel revived after vacationing here!

Chalet Nye Rocks!

Chalet Nye was the perfect property to host 5 families including 14 adults and 6 kids. Location was super convenient to HoliMont Ski Club, easy walk into town and a short drive to Holiday Valley slopes not to mention lovely views. Accomodations were better than most rentals with ample bedroom options, nice bathrooms with large tile showers, two 10+ seating dining / eating options (kitchen and dining room), a kitchen packed with amenities (from meal prep to baking), open floor plan with numerous TVs (watched the Superbowl), ample parking, lovely front porch and just downright comfortable. Even better, the host is easy to reach and a pleasure to deal with. Chalet Nye met all our expectations. Kudos +

Comfy Birthday Weekend

We spent the weekend for a 30th birthday celebration and this house was more than enough to accommodate several adult couples. The house was stocked with every appliance you could ever need and with detailed instructions for everything there was no questions for how things worked and ran. House was very clean and comfortable for everyone and walking distance to the village where we spent most our time. Would definitely stay here again if available!

Fully Stocked House Close to Town

Great property with great views. Fully stocked with anything you could need. Tons of towels, spices, pots, plates even some free weights! The TV with vhs player and disney videos was a HUGE hit with the 4-6 crowd and explaining why you need to "be kind and rewind" was priceless. Even though the weather didn't cooperate, it was a great stay in a cute town.

About the host

Hosted by Michele

After being born and raised in Allegany, New York, and having our children born and raised there until teenagers, we bought our house so that we could have a place to 'come home' to after our company moved us to Texas. Both sides of our family are still in the area and after our parents passed away, we still wanted a place to come home for Christmas each year. We all come now with an extended family! It's home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We loved the fact that it has so many bedrooms and can keep families together rather than having to stay in separate rooms in a hotel. It's so much more comfortable and enjoyable and with our new kitchen addition, there is plenty of room to 'gather' together while cooking, eating, or just enjoying each others' company.

What makes this property unique

We love the view of the hills from our home. Whether you are sitting out on the deck or on either of the porches in the front, the scenery is upper balcony is our 'slice of Heaven' and stargazing at night doesn't get any better!!!! With just being one mile from town, it is easy to stroll downtown for coffee in the morning, shop or dine in town, or simply sit on the park benches that line the main street and people watch. Ellicottville is a very charming place! It was also #3 in USA Today's listing of "Small Towns with Adventure" 2020
