Everything you need for a basic short stay, bed, refrigerator, microwave, toilet, shower … little extras, such as nice soap, shampoo, conditioner and a keurig coffee machine in your room … but no “breakfast” ? only con side.
Stayed in upper level had an awesome view of the elk in the refuge. Carpet was nice and soft and beds were perfect hit the pillows and right to sleep. Whole place and ease of check in was great also.
We had a wonderful stay! Beautiful room, clean, well furnished, and tremendous views!

The Elk Refuge Inn exceeded our expectations! The rooms were “cute” and functional. We liked the layout and all the amenities, including the refrigerator/freezer, microwave, a good supply of beverage choices, dish soap, scrubbers, and dish towels. They knew what we needed to make our stay comfortable more than we knew! Every time I contacted them by phone or by text, they were extremely helpful and courteous. I felt valued as a guest before I ever arrived. We loved being on the second floor and having a great view of the Elk across the road. We loved hearing the bugling and the cows communicating with their young. We are so happy we were encouraged to bring our own binoculars. It was a great suggestion by the staff. We can’t think of one thing that would’ve made our stay any better. It was fantastic!
