Elk Forge Bed and Breakfast

I enjoyed my brief overnight stay there very much. It is something of a step back in time. The way my specific room, the Chesapeake, was decorated caught my attention. There was a little framed display of nautical knots. I thought that I have to give myself a refresher course. I think the addition of one of those folding suitcase holders would be a good touch, and I was a bit surprised by the pillows. Perhaps in an attempt to provide hypoallergenic pillows, encasing them in what felt like shower-curtain material took some getting used to, even if the pillowcase itself was fabric. The bed itself was very comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was simple yet very well prepared and presented. I hadn't used a waffle maker in a long time. The eggs and sausage were delicious. (In addition to Tabasco, you may wish to try Frank's hot sauce.)

I blend the two above. To continue with one of the individual questions, the amount Booking.com said was the total amount was different from what was charged to me. The difference was not large, only about 10 or 11 dollars, but such discrepancies provide unnecessary questions and distractions. For two other guests, the lack of greater presence of the owners was something of a curiosity, as it was for me.

Room was spacious with even a separate sitting area. Jacuzzi big and plenty of linens. View pleasing and breakfast delicious. There is a trail out back and through a wooded area near a creek which we enjoyed.

We didn't mind, but the place is a little past its prime as far as upkeep. The owners are older and it's understandable. The only complaint is the extra tax charge that booking.com did not reveal or know and was not in their quote. So buyer beware. We still haven't gotten a refund for that.

The spacious landscaping helped me to engage my passion for bird watching. I could be inside or outside in the sun room and enjoy the short view. I loved the short walking paths. There were some private areas even if there were a large event crowd. The property was near to Fair Hill Nature Center where I finally finished my 9-year quest to photograph all 50 state birds, each in its home state. Danged oriole was hard to get. I wish it had been on the property but I can't blame host Harry for that.

It wasn't a fresh cooked breakfast unless you consider the self-serve waffle maker "fresh cooked." Parking in front was a bit rustic but I'm a rustic guy so it worked. Some road noise but I guess that's what Easterners get.

The breakfast in the morning sass delicious and food was plentiful. There are two short trails on the property that you can take a short stroll on.

The beds were very uncomfortable and the room was hard to keep cool. Our room had a window air conditioner that was in the bathroom window. It was difficult for the air to make its way into the room to cool it off.

The breakfast was fantastic and included a good selection of fresh fruit, cereals, waffles and pastries. The house had so much character and natural light as well as a cozy homey feeling to it. The host was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay and we really enjoyed relaxing outside on the deck and on the beautiful grounds.

We loved the trails through the woods and enjoyed the peacefulness of the scenery.

Quaint Inn and cute rooms!

The 1st day the breakfast was so-so, but the 2nd day they offered some fresh fruit and hard boiled eggs. Unfortunately the hard boiled eggs couldn’t be peeled because all the egg stuck to the shells, but atleast they offered more options for the carb conscious guests!

Loved it was very quiet and peaceful with a serene atmosphere. The antique furniture was gorgeous and helped to set the mood. The optional romance package made my wife feel like we were teenagers again.

The provided body wash, shampoo and conditioner was in a mounted pump dispenser and scent free, not great. Other than that it was perfect

The experience, it’s a beautiful place

The room was small and on third floor. Which was not what was explained in booking. Com. No cable had to sign in to my own account to watch tv. Paid a lot for room . Booking. Com should update the description and be more accurate of actual room , had no private entrance, no view of garden. But the service was very apologetic for the miscommunication.

the location was great the property is lovely quiet and well appointed

they need better pillows on huge beds -mine were pretty awful breakfast could be better -it’s on step with average hotel breakfast
