Beautiful Inn, very clean and inviting room. Fun finding the Blue Elks around the hotel and in the paintings. Gorgeous deck for relaxing. Older hot tub but still sweet to be outside with Mountain views.

The property was beautiful, the room was great, the check-in not so much. We waited at the front desk for 15 minutes before a maintenance worker showed up and finally got someone to check us in. Only downside to an otherwise pleasant experience.

Comfortable, quiet, & convenient...

We really enjoyed staying at the Blue Elk. Our room was spacious, up to date , quiet, & clean. Being off the main street through town was so nice & very quiet, & the location is a convenient 15 minute walk to downtown restaurants & breweries. The pool was bigger than most hotel pools & was heated to a comfortable temperature... The hot tub was usable, be not in good condition, & the outdoor sauna was great. Breakfast was much better than average for hotel breakfasts. We would definitely stay here again!

The check in process was very simple. And the quaintness of the hotel was just what we were looking for. Amenities were great. Especially the saunas on site! That's a plus. I think the hotel was simple but met all the needs. And sometimes that's all you need. Family friendly
