Elktrace BnB sits on the most beautiful property I have had the good fortune to visit. The 120 degree wrap-around snow capped peaks (mid may), the distant lakeview, the 100s of acres of perfect short grass, the horses, dogs, birds and tall pines.... Paradise. And only a ten to fifteen minute drive from everything you need.
The property features a typically large, upscale 'Mountain Style' lodge with many modern upgrades. Hanging flower pots everywhere was a nice touch. The breakfast area was large enough to spread out, especially with the deck right there. But the main dining table was very social with many great conversations. Breakfast was family style- serve yourself and extensive. The 8 to 10am time window is generous.
Some of the rooms were in the lodge, some next door.
I stayed in The Annex which is a pleasant five minute walk down the drive. This was again, a very large Mountain Style' 2 story 3 bedroom house that would be perfect for families. I had the downstairs King. To be truthful, the bed was pretty soft and the bathroom was pretty small. The ultra modern shower was tricky at first but very cool when I figured it out. There was a nice couple upstairs in 'The Master King Loft'. This worked fine, though NOTE: some might not like sharing the kitchen and Dining/Living area. EVERY one at Elk Trace was so great, I doubt you would have a problem. Just book a room in or next to the lodge if that is a concern. You won't go wrong at this 'Special Place in Paradise'.
