I am hard pressed to think of a more pleasant, elegant and delicious hotel stay. The only comparable event was the Grand Hotel in Taipei, Taiwan in the 1970's. Thank you both for a memorable occasion.

To Susan & Arthur,

'Thank you' seems so small compared to the BIG difference you made in our lives during our visit to Elk Mountain. We couldn't have asked for more! The quiet, the gracious service, the delicious food, the beautiful surroundings. All have magnified how special this time has been to us. Perhaps we will visit again over an anniversary.

Blessing to you.

“The hotel is lovely and secluded and has a real elegance about it. I was made to feel at home. It’s very gracious in a kind of old times fashion because I was totally indulged and pampered senseless by the welcome and hospitality. Dinner was unbelievably good and more affordable than I expected. The owners are really nice people too, for Brits!”

"Elk Mountain, Wyoming - Elk Mountain Hotel - Easy accessible from I-80 between Laramie and Rawlins, Wyoming, the Elk Mountain Hotel is an oasis of culinary splendor complete with very nicely appointed guest rooms and conference center. Sue and I have traveled extensively and seldom encounter truly outstanding restaurants because they are so rare. You can only begin to imagine our stunner delight when we first learned of Elk Mountain Hotel - literary (at least for Wyoming) in our back yard. Extremely well prepared and beautifully presented, the food will satisfy the most discriminating of tastes. Elk Mountain Hotel is located approximately 60 miles west of Laramie. David Cunningham's highest recommendation."

"Dear Friends at the Elk Mountain Hotel,
My husband and I visited your restaurant and experienced a marvelous meal. We live in Seattle area and are not strangers to good food, but the meal we had was special.
The peaceful and wild location, the beautiful historic dining room, the ancient legacy of the place and the serenity of the establishment—all of these things sank into our souls. Somehow we could hear one another better, and see each other more clearly, and understand each other’s hearts.
We were filled with happiness to be together and hope for the future. We had a chance to look at our lives in a new way. It felt like we were celebrating a divine gift.
And through it all we savored such heavenly food! The bourbon steak was indeed the finest either of us had ever tasted. Several of the dishes contained Indian spices which were rare and exotic and delicious. Never have we before experienced a meal so transcendent.
Thank you for providing this special evening for us. You profoundly nourished us!"
