• The beautiful kitchen and great room will no doubt be the center of attraction during your stay.
• Grilling & chilling on the patio to the sound of our waterfall on a cool summer's eve is hard to beat.
• The neighborhood is friendly and evening strolls around Elkhorn Village are a tradition to unwind and reminisce about the day's adventures.
• Easy access to pools, golf, tennis, skiing, biking, hiking and the town bus service are all bonuses and why we bought into Elkhorn Springs.
