Charming and welcoming decor. The upstairs loft bedroom and tv/game room and nook were a hit. Very clean, excellent communication from the owner/host. A perfect stay for our party of two families. Thoughtful amenities when we arrived. Loved our weekend.

Terrific house and outstanding owner
A group of us (6 men) needed a place to stay before a fly fishing trip.This place was great!The owner was very communicative and extremely helpful. The house was spotless, the accommodations were comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet.Well-stocked kitchen with coffee and snacks. Amazing! We will be booking again when we plan next year's trip. Highly recommend.

Blue Mountain Retreat
We went to Elgin to go on the Eagle Cap Excursion (which was awesome!). The Blue Mountain Retreat is a lovely home! Well maintained and extremely clean. The owner was beyond wonderful! We really enjoyed our family time there and are excited to go back in 2025!

Perfect little getaway
The house was clean and so cute. Fun games for the kids and nice and open. Stocked with the basics and it was perfect. Will definitely stay again if we come back to Elgin.
Property was very nice, loved the game room. One issue was that there was only one bathroom - just keep that in mind for larger parties. Really nice place!

Family visit to Elgin
When we first arrived we were very concerned about the amount of dogs living in the neighboring houses due to the noise level of the barking but once inside we were thankful that we did not hear them. The home is remarkably clean and new. The parking is very ample. The owner has set it up very nicely, even providing renters with some snacks and a coffee bar. It was fairly cold in Elgin the night that we stayed but the house was comfortable. Overall, I would recommend this place for others to stay.

Perfect family home
Fully stocked, clean and comfortable home. We stayed a few nights durning the Thanksgiving holiday and were super comfortable. Each room has its own wall heater, the kitchen is fully stocked with plates, pans, and utensils- even and air-fryer and a nice coffee bar. There are TVs in several of the bedrooms rooms and a large one in the main living room. The beds were comfortable with cute decorations. We will for sure stay again during our next family event.
