It was even nicer than it looked in the photos. The beds were very comfortable and location regarding short distance from ski mountains and Ellicottville was great. It was so sweet too that they had snacks and a bottle of wine out as a welcome gift when we arrived. Loved this place.

About the host

Hosted by Property Manager/Owner

Host profile image
I have been coming to Ellicottville since 1988.
It is my second home which might become my first in the near future, I hope.
We have been sharing our quaint chalet for a few years now, and its been a wonderful experience. People are so appreciative and respectful, check out our reviews.
We absolutely love the skiing, the aerial park at Holiday Valley, hiking, biking......
Come and share our place, some guests did not want to leave.
Looking forward to your visit.
Yves

Why they chose this property

It's a very quiet and very safe neighbourhood with awesome neighbours.
A quick drive to the ski hill, golf course, hiking trails.....and short walk to the village.
The library is a few minutes away, you can actually see it from the chalet. Ideal for young kids since they have all sorts of books, video rentals, games......or just get away from the group for some peace and quiet, or work since they have high speed internet.

What makes this property unique

Everything is either a short drive or walk.
During high season parking in the village might be a little challenging so walking is always the better option.
Too busy in town? Then back to the chalet for some peace and quiet,
Large yard for kids & pets, play game, hang around the deck, drinks by the fire pit.
Lots of parking for the guests on our property.
