Reviews

Best snow trip yet!

"A big thanks to Richelle and the entire team at Elk at Falls for a great stay! With a completely ski in ski out location and fantastic restaurant, Elk really is the best stay on the mountain. The rooms are brand new and have stunning views. The hotel has drying and storage rooms right inside the door so you never have to lug your heavy skis and board too far! By far the most comfortable trip to the snow we’ve ever had. Richelle is so accommodating and we absolutely couldn’t fault her hospitality. Can’t wait to see you all next year!!"

So warm and comfy

"Me and my partner stayed here with another couple during the start of the season, our room was super clean and had Netflix which was a plus. The front receptionist, Richelle, was extremely helpful with any issues we had and always answered our calls. We loved our time at Elk and would definitely stay there again."

Location, location, location.

"Best location on the mountain. Best service from attentive staff. Ripper restaurant. Breakfast by the fire makes it tempting to stay-in, but the ski-in, ski-out makes it easy to do one or twenty runs. I’m coming back next year!!"

Snow Luxe at Elk

"WOW!!! The newly revamped Elk at Falls is a must stay for your next trip to Falls creek, no expense has been spared in these expansive luxurious apartments, every detail well though out with nifty spaces to store all of the gear you need for a snow trip, even down to a space under the wall hung couches that stores snowboard bags underneath perfectly. A perfect place to lay your head in the fluffy feather down bedding after a big day on the slopes. You won’t be disappointed with a stay or a delicious dinner at the restaurant at Elk!"
