Wonderful experience. 5 stars on all aspects of our stay. The staff out outstanding; friendly, professional, personable. Location was the ultimate in relaxation. The restaurant food was delicious (French toast, breakfast scramble, chicken fried steak, sausage..)

Have been to Elkins over the past many years and the staff have always been friendly and helpful including the dock staff, front desk staff and all the dining service workers. It’s a beautiful location with great views.

We arrived on a busy Friday night and the wait to be seated was 2 hours. We decided to order pizza and take it home with us. The grounds and docks were absolutely beautiful. The pizza was a little over done that night, but still good.

We recently got married at Elkins, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out! The staff went above and beyond to make our day incredible, and all of our guests loved their experience. We felt very supported throughout our planning experience, and the whole wedding weekend was great. Highly recommend!

We rented a pontoon boat from Elkins on Priest Lake, ID, for 3 days the week after the 4th of July. This is the 4th consecutive year that we have rented a boat from them. We've always received excellent service from the crew there at Elkins. This time was no different.

From reservation (via a phone call) to check-in, to return, their process flowed logically and was executed VERY well. It covered all questions I had in mind prior to the whole process kicking off (meaning, their customer interaction process is very well thought out and executed by the team).

This year we rented a 23 foot Pontoon boat - nearly brand new -with 78 hours on it. Beautiful boat! (You can go to their website to see pictures of their watercraft selections.) And BTW, they provide you with a pair of waterskis (or another pull-behind item, i.e. tube), ski rope and a waterskiing life preserver with your rental.

Priest Lake is an extraordinary destination in the northern panhandle of Idaho (10 miles from the Canadian border) and leveraging the extraordinary service from Elkins will always be in our annual visit plan. Next year we may rent one of their new Cobalt (21 footer?) for more action than relaxation on the lake.

If you love being on a lake and need a summer getaway - give them a call! Their facilities and rentals are varied (something for everybody) and their team is excellent!

Dine here regularly as a local but don't stay in the rooms. I heard that the rooms are good to stay in for the area. Service is good Enjoy sitting on the lawn and dining in the summer.

No matter what season you visit, the views and grounds are spectacular! The staff are phenomenal and treat you like royalty and at the same time like family! The cabins are amazing, we’ve stayed in many different ones and it’s always perfect! The restaurant and bar are beyond incredible, the food is five-star perfection and the drinks are made with love and expert craftsmanship!

Our experience at Elkins Resort was everything we hoped it would be and more! They thought of all the little details, and the accommodations were perfect- clean, updated, and everything in working order. The cabin was cozy, comfortable, and very nice. The entire property is so beautiful, and they did a great job decorating for the Holidays to make it even more welcoming. We’ll be back for sure!

What a fun spot for a wedding, family reunion, or romantic weekend. The location is perfect. The lake is pristine and the abundance of Adirondack chairs at the water’s edge beckons a nice long sit. The bar is quaint and the service was excellent.

My husband and I just spent 4 days at Elkins Resort. This is our 4th staying here. We stayed in Cabin #3 with a wood-burning fireplace. The cabin was so nice and roomy, great bed, shower, nice kitchen. We snowshoed at Hannah Flats and also at Priest Lame Golf course, perfect and beautiful, quiet. We also walked at sunset on the lakeside of the resort, also beautiful. There was a lot of snow everywhere and extremely gorgeous. Thank You, Elkins Resort for a nice stay. We were here during the week when the restaurant is closed in winter.

We got married there in early May! The venue and particularly the staff were fantastic. The staff was on point, helpful, motivated, and self-starters. The venue itself was delightful, we had the ceremony outside overlooking priest lake and the snow-capped Selkirk mountains. The catering was delicious for the reception dinner, the rehearsal dinner, breakfast, and lunch. If you haven’t visited Priest Lake, make Elkins your home base to explore. I can’t recommend it enough.
