Pet Friendly! Elk Hill Retreat w/ Gorgeous Views

Lots of warning signs: Open this private door: 50 fine. Don't empty trash: 100 fine. Don't clean up poop: 200 fine. ... and a few more. Otherwise it was a cool place. Steep driveway but paved for the top 1/2. Very good location for all the high country popular spots. Like many VRBOs, they use fresh scented Lavender laundry detergent and or fabric softener on bedding and linens (if you have a sensitive nose). One shower didn't drain well but overall a comfortable and spacious place. Would stay there again.

This place was awesome. View was very nice. Almost all we need was there. Felt we were just home. Make sure to open the bathroom door to make the room warm (heater is in the bathroom, there is a touchscreen heater in the room itself but it seems not working or maybe its just me, had to research how to use it) Didn’t know that we have to do it like that so the first night the room was so cold but good thing there were enough blankets to keep us warm, the fireplace didn’t do much to keep us warm. Overall, still place is good to stay for a large group.

It was nice with the exception of finding dog poop in the dining area. That just was unacceptable because I used to clean houses for a living and we checked wall to wall for cleanliness and made sure it was left in mint condition. We wanted to get away for just a couple of days but when I saw that it just threw me into a panicked mode. Anyways we did enjoy our stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As always, a wonderful summer visit. We hated to leave the cool mountain air. Our dogs can’t get enough of the wonderful fenced in yard. The property management went above and beyond to help with one issue that arose. This property has incredible sunset views and is centrally located to everything. Hope to see you next summer!

Beautiful property! The views from the deck were unbelievable. Lots of space for our dogs to roam outside in the yard and lots of space inside for our family and my sister’s family. Convenient to restaurants and tourist attractions. I would definitely stay again!

Reviewer Comments: I recently had the pleasure of staying at Elk Hill Retreat in Sugar Mountain with a group of 10 family members, including 3 under 10 years old. I'm here to spill the tea on this gem of a property. Buckle up, because it's a bit of a rollercoaster!Let me start with what stole our hearts – the views. Oh boy, those views! Elk Hill Retreat is perched atop a hill about 6 min from the Sugar Mountain resort, offering panoramic scenes that will make your jaw drop. I'm talking about waking up to the sun kissing the peaks and winding down with the most breathtaking sunset you can imagine. It's like Mother Nature decided to show off, and Elk Hill is the front-row seat.We were a group of 11, and there was room for everyone and then some. No elbow-jabbing or awkward bathroom sharing situations here. The property is spacious, both inside and out. The living areas are cozy without feeling cramped, and the bedrooms – oh, the bedrooms! Comfy beds, fresh linens – they nailed the whole home away from home vibe.But the real MVPs were the thoughtful touches. Board games? Check. Bedding? Check. Dishes, cooking utensils, and spices? Triple check! It was like they read our minds and anticipated our every need. We had a master chef in our group, and the well-stocked kitchen made our culinary adventures a breeze. Imagine whipping up a feast while gazing at those mountain views – talk about a recipe for happiness.Look, I won't sugarcoat the issues with the property management company. They were a bit slack in the communication and follow-through department. There were times when we felt a bit in the dark, playing a waiting game for responses and waiting until the last minute for directions and final instructions. It wasn't a dealbreaker, but it did add a sprinkle of frustration to an otherwise perfect stay.Despite the communication hiccup, our time at Elk Hill Retreat was nothing short of stellar. The property itse

We stayed at this Elk Hill Retreat home, overall the home/neighborhood is pretty good, located on top of a steep hill with great views. Bathrooms are kind of dated. The check in process was kind of hectic as check in as at 4pm and we did not get to have access until almost an hour later (and check out at 10 sharp) the lady at the management office was very busy and was getting slammed with calls.

We stayed here over a weekend to go to App St football game with family. Was perfect for what we needed.
