The Space:
This property is incredibly unique and spacious, with large windows in the main living and dining rooms that showcase beautiful views of the surrounding trees. Built in 1979, the home features wood beam ceilings and vaulted ceilings that add warmth and character throughout. Perfect for groups and families, the chalet offers multiple living areas, comfortable bedrooms across all levels, and inviting outdoor spaces.
When you enter the home, you step down into the main level — a large living room that flows seamlessly into the dining room with expansive glass windows and the full kitchen. Just off the kitchen is a convenient laundry area with a washer and dryer, making it easy to keep up with laundry during longer stays. This main level also includes a half bath and the primary suite with a king bed, Roku TV with Cable TV (Spectrum), and a private en-suite bath.
The lower level provides a spacious second living room with a huge sectional couch, a Sony TV with Roku and Cable TV (Spectrum), a foosball table, a full bathroom, and two bedrooms — one with two twin beds and a full bed, and another with two twin beds.
The upper level has three additional bedrooms: one with two twin beds, and two with queen beds that each open to a private balcony with mountain views.
The chalet’s outdoor living areas are equally impressive. The lower patio, accessible from the basement or steps leading down from the driveway, is covered and protected from the rain, and features a Weber propane gas grill and a gas firepit arranged with two Adirondack chairs and an L-shaped bench for gatherings. The upper deck, accessible from the main floor through sliding doors, offers a dining table, sectional seating, and a Weber natural gas grill. At night, string lights turn on automatically at dusk, giving the space a warm and inviting glow. Guests also have use of the garage, which provides convenient gear storage and an extra refrigerator — perfect for larger groups and extended stays.
Guest Access:
Guests have full access to the entire chalet, including all three levels, the garage (for ski/bike gear and extra fridge), both decks, and the lower deck with gas firepit.
The Neighborhood:
The chalet is set on Buchan Ridge, up on the hill overlooking Tannenbaum Lodge. It offers privacy and sweeping views while still being just minutes from the action. It’s just a 10-minute walk to Tannenbaum Lodge, home to the Spruce Lake Quad and Tannenbaum Express lifts at Holiday Valley. The lodge is equally popular in summer, thanks to its proximity to the Sky High Ropes Course and Mountain Coaster. The resort also has pools available with day passes — highly recommended for a summer stay. Beyond the slopes, the village of Ellicottville is close by, where you’ll find charming shops, local restaurants, and a lively après-ski scene.
Getting Around:
The chalet is just a short drive from Holiday Valley and the village of Ellicottville. A car is recommended to make the most of your stay. Guests can park on-site and use the garage for storing gear. Downtown shops, dining, and the slopes are only minutes away.
