Houten huisjes in Chautauqua

Loved the hot tub, loved the record player, all in all was a very fun weekend and if I ever get the chance to come back I will!

As in other reviews be prepared for sulfur water. The sulfur smell is horid. However, i believe the owner has done everything he can to try to elevate it. Filters work well but they need constant flow or they can be bad instead of good. I developed rash from it. I read reviews and knew about it well in advance. The place is very comfortable and quiet location. If you listen carefully you can hear the click clock of amish on the roads. The electric heaters heat the property astonishingly well. This week we had nearly 30 inches of snow. We were sick of the snow for sure. Plenty of grocery stores and shopping nearby. Restaurants as well. Beds feel hard at first but slept like baby. No stains on sheets etc as others pointed out. Over all enjoyed our stay. IF YOUR SKIN IS SENSITIVE TO SULFUR NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU. UNTIL A PERMANENT SOLUTION IS FOUND FOR THE ISSUE. We will probably rebook in 25.

It was quiet and peaceful with a beautiful view. It was what we were looking for for a short getaway. 10/10 would recommend it to a friend and would stay again

My family and I loved our stay here! We had an extended weekend and used the Rustic Retreat as a base camp to explore the area and just relax. Highlight of the stay was the hot tub and stargazing!

We absolutely loved this house and all that came with it. Our pups loved all of the room to run, play, hike, swim and explore. The house was so well stocked it felt like our own home. The beds were super comfortable and the vibe of the home just instantly made us feel at ease. The hot tub was great and the views were exactly what we were hoping for. Will def be back!

We enjoyed staying at David’s place very much. The house was dated but clean. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook for a big family. We enjoyed the game room very much. The pellet fireplace was a nice touch to make the room warm and cozy. Location was great as it was only 9 minutes drive to Ellicottville and 11 minutes to Holiday Valley. David was quick to respond to any problems. Would definitely recommend.

The place was absolutely perfect for our three families (6 adults, 6 kids) to meet and do a ski weekend at Holiday Valley. Great spot, hot tub was definitely a hit. Host was super responsive too.

Wonderful space for us and our dogs to relax after traveling all day! Wish we had more time at the spot!

We couldn’t have planned a better weekend getaway. The grounds were beautiful. The cabin was clean and comfortable. Leigh and Matt are friendly and accommodating hosts who wanted us to have the best experience they could offer and they met every expectation we could have imagined. We will be recommending Bison Trace to all of our friends!! Thank you for a great weekend!!

Place was very cool with one heck of a view from the kitchen window. We are simple people and easy to please so we loved it. Would go back there for sure.

The cabin was on the river and had a very nice yard that sloped right down to the water. It was November and we did fish a little but were unlucky. I would definitely rent this in the summer just to play in the water. There was fire wood and a great fire pit. The deck and furniture were excellent. The cabin was spotless and had amenities that I did not expect--dish soap, kitchen towels, washer, dryer. etc. The only possible negative comment is that the sitting area was combined with the kitchen so the TVs were located in the bedrooms. This would have been fine had it been more than my husband and I. We usually travel with family and never turn on a TV. The host, Erwin, communicated well and made sure we could contact him at any time with any questions. I would rent again from him with confidence.

The cabin is beautiful and off the grid. Made me feel like I was staying at my family’s cabin when I was a kid. Very peaceful and great to sit back and relax. House is very clean and has beautiful surroundings.

My family enjoyed this cabin very much! The kids enjoyed visits from our goat friend and they loved going in the kayak. The host was very kind and responsive. The cabin is beautiful and clean and had all the amenities we needed! The location was peaceful and private but not far from restaurants/activities. Peace of the Pie is a darling cafe nearby we’d recommend and the peanut butter pie at Goode’s Family Restaurant was out of this world! A short drive to hike Zoar Valley too. Thanks for a great stay!

We stayed here last year at the same time in March. We like the hiking opportunities in the area. awe were also fortunate to get another warm weekend in mid March (same as last year) and managed to get out on a nice trail again this year. Becki is very responsive has prepared a wonderful home for a quiet weekend or a longer stay. We are very likely to continue to return here on a regular basis.

great communication, very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this to family and friends.

Second time staying at Jack's Place this year. The only bad thing about staying here is that you eventually have to leave. lol Debra's a great host, very responsive and helpful if anything is needed. Jack's is a very clean, spacious, peaceful & comfortable place to stay. Will definately stay again!!

Winnie is an outstanding host! So friendly and flexible. The cottage is adorable. So pretty and relaxing and full of cute little treasures to see. The property is just lovely, full of trees and along the river Unfortunately for us it poured 80 % of our stay...but...it is beautiful and we had one lovely marshmallow roasting night outside. Would highly recommend.....you'll love it!

Wonderful place with an excellent host! An unmatched value for sure.👍🏻👍🏻 It is a distance to a full-fledged grocery or beverage store so I would suggest to arrive with special necessities that you may require.

Respectfully, the pictures don't do it justice! Even nicer in person! Went for the opening day of trout and everything was amazing- clean inside, firewod, comfy beds. We love to camp but if it's cold for opening day, we will likely be back!!! So many other things nearby as well!!

This place was beautiful for a weekend get away. We enjoyed exploring the trails and sitting on the deck and enjoying the peace and quiet. Very much worth the money and then some.

We liked everything very much, we stayed with the children, the children were delighted with the second floor, amazing nature, the pond, we liked everything very much, the owner provided coals for the barbecue, coffee, candles for lighting, everything was at the highest level

Absolutely gorgeous property! The cabin was clean, comfortable, and perfectly situated for a peaceful escape. One of the highlights was the walking trail—it was clearly marked, expertly designed, and a beautiful way to explore the natural surroundings. Barry was fantastic—he provided tons of local insight that helped make our stay extra special. You can tell a lot of care went into both the Cabin and the overall property. The whole experience felt thoughtful and welcoming. We’d come back in a heartbeat!

This was an absolutely beautiful mountain lodge home just about a 10 minute drive from the “main” town of Ellicotville. Elizabeth was very kind and clear with all of the instructions for check in/about the property in general. Our favorite part was how spacious this property was and the beautiful tall ceilings/high windows that made it a perfect “winder wonderland” cozy escape. We came for Holiday Valley, so this was an easy drive to there and the main restaurants, shops and entertainment. P.S. A 4 wheel drive, reliable car is a MUST for the winter. We got quite a bit of snow and it is very important for your safety, as this property is located on a hill. Wonderful place— highly recommend for family, friends, and anybody visiting the area!

Cozy little cottage that is close to nearby attractions - comfortable and clean. Nice spot to stay, but the long driveway is slippery after heavy snow, not recommended unless you have an AWD vehicle. We enjoyed our stay.
