I don't think I can really add anything to what all the other reviews say. It's all true. This is an amazing place to stay. Absolutely everything has been thought of. It is 110% spic and span clean. Everything is just absolutely beautiful, inside and out. We would love to come back.

50th wedding anniversary/reunion
We had the privilege to spend several days at this amazing place . So many activities for everyone. The kids never asked what is there to do…..actually there wasn’t time to do it all. This place is built for large groups and handles it beautifully. The owner has thought of everything and more to make your stay the most memorable ever. We will certainly return again. Thanks Meggan and the staff…..we are all missing the Elk Barn Inn.

Piece of Heaven
Our second stay at the Elk Barn was as enjoyable as our first. We love being enveloped in nature where everyone has their own space and can find something they enjoy doing. The kids loved the creek, the teens and adults loved ping pong and pickleball (created our own court) and everyone loved the nightly wiffle ball games. We plan one day out to hike and swim at Kootenai Falls and bowl at the lanes in nearby Troy. Hard to beat this lovely place.

Family Reunion
The Elk Barn Inn was the perfect spot for our family reunion. We filled the lodge, had three RVs and used the Cowboy Cabin. The lodge had all we needed for our group . Meggen has added little touches everywhere that were appreciated. The setting is stunning and the pond was a refreshing spot in the hot afternoon. We all (28 of us) agreed the Elk Barn Inn is exceptional!

Thr PINNACLE of Rentals!
As a professional traveler, I stay in 8 to 10 home rentals a year with large groups. The Elk Barn is easily in the top three I have ever stayed in - absolutely ZERO complaints! Meggen makes everything easy and bends over backwards, even helping us come up with anniversary decorations last minute. Never have I ever seen a more fully stocked house - from multiple washer/dryers, multiple refrigerators, multiple cover bars and microwaves, all the way to EVERY POSSIBLE cooking spice or equipment you could need. SO SO SO CLEAN! Additionally, the outdoor space is as grand as the indoor. You could arrive at the Elk Barn and never leave and you would be fine. The pond and creek are especially magical. Staying here allows you see so much during the daytime. Hip hip horray for this wonderful rental.

Absolutely Marvelous
The Elk Barn Inn and Meggen were amazing. It was comfortable, clean, very well stocked, and beautifully decorated. There was plenty of space for everyone, inside and out. The outdoor covered spaces are awesome, and the grounds were wonderful! We'd highly recommend this place to anyone!

Family Union at Elk Barn Inn
The Elk Barn Inn is nothing short of spectacular! The pictures really do not do this place justice. The forests and surrounding mountains are jaw dropping, as is the barn itself. We spent 5 nights with a full group of 9 kids and 16 adults for a family get together. There was never a shortage of beautiful views, fun things to do, or warm cozy spots to hang out. Being close to the Cabinet Mountains, the Clark Fork River, and Lake Pend Oreille, meant we were able to take several day trips to local areas as well! Meggen was a great host, and we'll for sure be back in the future.

Lovely property!
We stayed 2 nights for a leadership retreat and can't say enough good things about the property! It was so peaceful and yet there was so much to do on site. Meggen was wonderful and made sure we had everything we needed!
