    We had a wonderful weekend at Elk Meadows. Plenty of space for our group and a stocked kitchen that allowed us to prepare all meals at the house. The only drawback of the weekend was that it was too short, definitely going for a couple more days next time!

    House is located on a large private property that proves privacy yet is located not too far from town. The accommodations are very nice and the views are absolutely amazing. Someone previously commented on not being able to operate HVAC but there is a house guide book that I clearly illustrates how to operate. In visited in early October just in time to see a large flock of wild turkeys each morning. Look forward to next trip.

    Despite this crew struggling to figure out how to work the air conditioning and the showers (they were kind to walk us through it!) we finally figured out and by day 2 we had a cool house and could work everything! The house was just outstanding and we loved the location! A quick trip to town if needed and a beautiful view!
