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!!"

Outstanding

"I have seen a lot of changes over the past 25 years at Falls Creek but none better than the revamp of Elk at Falls. In arguably one of the best locations on the mountain, the quality of the accommodation couple with an in-house restaurant worthy of being compared to a top city restaurant, this deserves every bit of a 5 star rating. We will be back in 2019! Thank you."

Best at Falls!

"Thank you to everyone at Elk at Falls for a perfect weekend. The apartment is cleverly laid out with plenty of room for everyone. The finishings are both stylish and high quality and the beds are super comfortable. Everyone was helpful and went out of their way to make our stay memorable. We will definitely be back again next year."

Spectacular Hospitality

"Amazing rooms with every need catered for. We felt at home the second we walked through the door. The beds were dreamy, room toastie warm and they had those big shower heads that I love to ease all your skiing aches away. Richelle was so kind and communicated everything we needed in advance so we had the smoothest experience. Ski in ski out and ski downhill to the lifts! No walking at all! Will stay again ❤"
