We cater to the adventurous skier - those looking for a winter wilderness experience. Although we have a small groomer to 'soften the bumps', cross-country skiing at Elk Lake is all about getting back to pure nature. Our skiers enjoy skiing off-the-beaten-path. They relish in going 'where few have gone before.' They enjoy having not just a cabin, or a lodge to themselves, but an entire valley with its surrounding mountains. Can't imagine that? Check us out!

Wilderness Ski Touring Elk Lake Style - courtesy of Mike PhillipsOur Winter Vacation Resort's guests aren't the shy, the timid, or the fearful of heart. Our Yellowstone Country Vacatoin Lodge sits in the middle of nowhere. Our guests relish watching the moose just down the valley, admiring the Trumpeter Swans on a nearby pond, and spying a fox, an eagle, or an otter near the lake. Their hearts beat in tune with nature. They welcome the deep velvet night sky. They revel in the sun's warm rays. And, they find, in the purity and seclusion of an off-the-beaten-path winter vacation destination, their 'winter wonderland.'

We cherish the quiet mornings, watching the sun rise over Deer Mountain. We delight in the serenity of clear cold days and star-pricked nights. We exult in the snowflakes that drift down to drape the towering pines. We savor the tranquility of winter's cloak. Thus, we understand the need to get away from the hustle, the bustle, the press, and the noise.
