The food was excellent. The whole meal took about 2 hours, so if you are in a hurry might not be good, but we just relaxed and enjoyed the experience. We plan to return again.

We had to travel to Spokane for an event didn't think twice about adding another day along with a two hour drive, just to spend the day and have dinner at Elkins resort. We normally spend a week at Elkins every year, but it doesn't look like we can make it this year, so this special day and dinner to celebrate our 46th anniversary was special. This lake and this resort experience is one of the most beautiful places and experiences in the world and one that should not be missed if you are ever in the region. Year round!

Awesome place, great food and service, can’t give a 5 star though, reservation table was over 30 minutes late!! Understand but that’s the only reason.

Thank you for your patience Michael. It was one of the busiest evenings of the winter. We could have communicated better on your table status.

A charming, wonderful place to pass a meal - props to the warm and historic setting. Friendly service, however quite a wait for dinners and no communication during the wait. I'd like to see Elkins provide a small complimentary loaf of warm bread to tide you over during the long wait. It's a small, inexpensive gesture to diners. However wonderful, flavorful pepper steak with their amazing signature peppercorn sauce. Accompanying asparagus was fresh and perfectly cooked, and the mashed potatoes were abundant and tasty. We shared a huckleberry crisp dessert. Highly recommended! This is a memorable place with wonderful food where you can make many nice memories.

The service was excellent. Our server had a wonderful personality. The bone in pork loin was one of the best meals I've ever had. And, of course, you can't beat Elkins for ambiance.
