For Holimont Members only home available

Take a break and reconnect in a charming 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom chalet with modern updates. Nestled on the slopes of the exclusive Holimont ski resort, this cozy rental allows visitors to hike or bike from the front door in warmer months or ski-in ski-out during snow season.


Ideal for families and larger groups, the chalet sleeps 14 comfortably and provides two large common areas for your convenience and enjoyment.


Upstairs you will find a large master bedroom with updated bathroom and walk-in shower as well as a powder room and separately housed shower and soaking tub combo.


The upstairs also offers a large, open concept great room with kitchen, dining room and seating area with plenty of room for visiting. Sink into one of three new couches in the living room area as you enjoy a roaring fire in the wood burning fireplace or play games at the large table that can easily accommodate 14 guests. Nature lovers will delight in watching through the large windows as local birds and wildlife feast on multiple bird feeders placed strategically for easy viewing from most seats in the room.


The recently updated and fully equipped kitchen ensures that you have all the conveniences of home. We’ve stocked the cupboards with dishes, pots, pans and cleaning supplies. Coffee lovers will also be relieved to see both a Keurig and drip coffee pot available to ensure you start your morning off with your usual cup o’ Joe.


On the lower level of the chalet, guests will find three additional bedrooms, a full bathroom and a large living room/gaming area complete with ping pong table.


While Ellicottville is best known for winter skiing, each season offers something new to enjoy. Book in the summer for a family retreat filled with hiking at nearby Little Rock City, biking downtown (just a mile away) and nights around the outdoor fire pit. Visit in the fall to experience a riot of colors during the iconic fall foliage season.

Wonderful chalet
We spend a fun filled weekend with great skiing and had a blast at the comfortable relaxing chalet. It's a beautiful place to spend time with family and connect with great friends. Stocked with all the comforts of home. Ski in ski out and close to town with lots to do. Can't wait to go back!

Our family, adults and grandchildren stayed at this house over Thanksgiving weekend.
Our family had a wonderful time staying here. The house is fully equipped to prepare a Thanksgiving dinner! Lynette the owner was extremely helpful with any of our questions and needs. Our only complaint was that the furniture was not very comfortable to sit in around the fireplace. Other than that, we loved the house and the location was great for going into town.

Relax and Ski
Spacious, comfy home with everything you need to unwind, relax, and enjoy the outdoors. You need not bring anything except food and drink (unless you decide to eat out and shop in the cute little town within a few miles). Plenty of room, tv, wifi, pingpong, outdoor grill, skiing, and hiking all in a peaceful setting. There is also a zip line course nearby that was fantastic when we visited in the fall. All this and Pet Friendly too! Can't wait to go back again.

The property was perfect for our large, family reunion.
The common areas were large enough for conversation, games, and eating as a group. The fireplace provided warmth and coziness. Access to the slopes was great for skiing and sledding. Probably the best part of this rental was communication and accommodation with the owners. They were responsive to every request and went out of their way to make sure our stay was all we hoped for. We would recommend the property to any family wishing to enjoy being together and experiencing all Holimont and Ellicottville have to offer.

Spacious and scenic
We had four families - eight adults and 12 children - and the chalet was big enough to accommodate our large group comfortably. The kitchen/dining/living room area was spacious for lounging/eating/hanging out. The ski equipment room on the bottom floor was convenient to store all our gear. Location is ideal - four houses away from the nearest run. Decorated nicely. Would definitely go back.

Just what We Needed
My son and I spent 14 days at this perfect home that afforded us quiet, tranquil days amidst the trees and nature. Lovely hikes up the ski slope and further to discover Spruce Lake. Having ping pong and darts were appreciated. Many games were provided as well as several drawerfuls of DVDs to enjoy. Lynette was a thoughtful owner and easy to work with. I would highly recommend this tree-house feeling retreat.

A beautiful property nestled in the woods close to the town of charming Ellicottville!
This property was a perfect location and size for a group of couples or a few families to share. (We booked this for a wedding that we attended at a local ski area). It was spacious, well stocked with kitchen items, linens, and above all, clean. If you enjoy the outdoors and a nice walk, you can even stroll into the town Ellicottville for a delicious Saturday morning breakfast. The owner was fantastic to communicate with. She recommended many things to do and also left a binder with an easy step by step closing up procedure. In closing, I would most definitely recommend!!!!

A great place, amazing weekend!
This was, by far, one of the best places we've had a chance to stay. The villa is tucked away into the forest trees and the whole area is one of peace and tranquil. Everything that we needed was there and even though we were 14 people there was more than enough space for everybody. It was clean and well kept and the tennis table was a hit with our kids. I left the owners last, however they were amazing and most helpful. Lynette was there to help us with any questions and the information that she gave was very useful. Even one little issue that we had, it was resolved quickly and efficiently. We loved the chalet, the place around it and hope to be back sooner rather than later. I fully recommend it as an excellent choice for your vacation.

Lovely quiet Chalet. Get lost in the wilderness
Spent time with my close friends this Memorial Day weekend. It was a sort of reunion so we did not intend to do a lot of activity. That way this was a perfect place with an open kitchen so that we could converse while cooking. Kids had their own space below, big enough for them to run, watch TV and play. It was rainy so could not use the outside much. The only sore point - We were really looking forward to use the Jacuzzi however could not get it to work. It was not responding to the switch, not sure why. Else was a great memorable weekend. Would recommend it to others who just want to spend time with close ones.

Perfect Family Get-a-way!
We reserved this property for a Celebration of Life event for our father's passing. We couldn't have been happier with the property! There were 14 of us at one point, and everyone had a place to sleep, even showers worked out despite many people wanting them in close succession. The kitchen is great, found everything we needed. I am so glad there is no TV in the upper living room, instead everyone played games and talked while playing music on the speaker in the kitchen. I don't think anyone ever even used a TV! We hiked to the pond at the top of the ski hill next to the house, dogs loved it! Close to town and in a beautiful setting. Campfire outside each night. The owners have made sure to include everything you could need here, we only brought food and drinks. Thank you so much for allowing dogs, we are a big dog family and it wasn't easy finding a place to fit us all. This was really a great place to stay, can't wait to do it again!

Terrific Ski Weekend with Friends and kids
We spent Presidents Day weekend 2018 at this lovely Holimont Chalet. It was perfect for 4 families (7 adults 7 children). Each family had their own room and there was plenty of space for all of our accompanying ski gear - the boot room was perfect for keeping all of our stuff organized! The house was stocked with everything 14 people could need over the course of 5 days. Plenty of wood, towels, kitchen supplies, even the pantry and refrigerator were stocked with essentials. Having a washer and dryer was very handy as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our ski days at Holimont, it was a lovely resort, no crowds and terrain for all ability levels. Our 7 and 8 year old even tackled their first black diamond! The property owner was very helpful and responsive to all of our communications and followed-up upon our arrival to make sure we were settled and had what we needed. She provided us with very useful information about Ellicottville on our first visit to the area. I've done a lot of VRBO's and this was one of our best experiences yet.

Great house, very roomy, incredibly kind & helpful owner
Beautiful, roomy home located slopeside. We comfortably fit 14 adult males for a "guys weekend" it's s decent walk into town, but not too bad. Coming back up the hill is definitely a bit of a hike! Great kitchen & living room space. All of the bedrooms were very comfortable. Ping-pong table was tons of fun. Owner is super kind, and helpful and made the rental stress free. It'd be an amazing rental for the winter, which I think it's more geared towards. The lack of A/C was apparent for 13 guys, during the middle of a heat wave, so it did get a little toasty inside. The only other negative (which really only applies for non-winter renting) is the lack of a yard for yard games. There isn't really any traffic on the road, so we were able to adjust and play some yard games in the road which was still fun. Despite the lack of a yard, there are two excellent porches to relax on, and they do have space where a firepit is setup which is nice.

Great multi-family house
We brought a couple families up and had a great time. House is clean, well-kept, and had everything we needed for an enjoyable Fall weekend in EVL. Big open room upstairs to hang out and be together as a group. Kitchen is good sized and fairly well stocked for our cooking needs. Eventually the kids migrated downstairs, which was perfect because they had their own TV, ping pong, and plenty of room to chill away from parents. Oh, and beautiful expansive views out every backside window. One tip that the owner will also share with you: we woke up to a couple inches of snow which adds a bit of "excitement" to the location which you need to factor in if you're coming in winter. The road up to the house is a fairly steep grade. Don't attempt going up or down in a 2WD with banana skin tires or you will regret it. Same with stairs down to the front door of the house. You will bite it big time if you're not careful. None of this is anything to worry about unless you're unprepared. Lynette's a good, attentive owner. Proactively made sure we were happy with everything and even remotely turned the heat on for us before we arrived. She's very accommodating and we appreciated it. All-in-all, exactly what we were looking for.

A Great Thanksgiving Holiday
We had the pleasure of staying at this home over the Thanksgiving holiday. My family of 16 adults and one 15-month old had a fantastic stay and we would highly recommend. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to make a grand Thanksgiving dinner, and the dining table had plenty of leaves to accommodate all 16 of us sitting together. Because of the large number of vehicles that we had and the recent record snowfall in the area, parking at the home was pretty limited (3 vehicles), but with Lynette's help and the map on the wall in the entryway we got everyone safely and legally parked for the long weekend. Lynette was a wonderful host and despite my multiple emails to her, she never seemed to lose patience with me. She always provided not only the information I was requesting, but lots of additional information to help ensure a wonderful vacation at her home and in the village of Ellicotville. We are not skiers, but thoroughly enjoyed Lynette's home and Ellicotville's charm. We highly recommend!

Wonderful New Years stay!
This home (and Holimont generally) is such a special place and community! Even with a historic lack of snow, we had a wonderful stay! The house is exactly as advertised, clean and spacious, and perfect for 2 families (including 4 kids). The kids loved the ping/beer pong table! The owner was incredibly helpful and responsive - even offering us ideas of what to do around town since there were a few days when skiing was not an option! We loved it and can’t wait to return with some real snow!

Very nice weekend stay
We had a wonderful weekend stay at this house in EVL. It was very cozy, super clean and well stocked with everything we could possibly need. The host was a pleasure to work with and was so accomodating and helpful. The only complaint we had and the host agreed was that new couches might help to make the living room area a little more comfy than it already was. Plenty of clean towel and lots of space for sleeping should it be needed. Basement area (where most of bedroom space is) was not damp at all and had so many fun things to do! We would definately stay again! Awesome street to take a little stroll on as well in the summer! I can only image how great this property would be if you were a skier.

Rolled into Ellicott Ville to ride mountain bikes for a few days lifelong friends. The property was easy to check into, very convenient access to the town and a quiet comfortable place to relax. The owners made it quite easy for us to enjoy. Would recommend to other renters.
