Great historic area and property was conveniently located for our visit to Alton & Grafton.The restaurant right across the street was a great spot for dinner our first night. The room arrangements worked out great with two bedrooms on one side of home and the other one on opposite (above garage loft).Stairs to two bedroom side are steep and narrow - fine for our stay but would create issues for elderly guests.Would definitely consider staying again if available during our next visit down.

We loved this house for our girls weekend away! So beautiful. Elsah is adorable, & the restaurant across the street was amazing. Tons of space, fully updated kitchen, perfect little deck off the back to sit & enjoy the quiet. Highly recommend this property!

Lovely house in a very sweet village. The residents in the neighborhood are super friendly. There’s a cool shop at the entrance featuring local artists and fair trade items. We were very pleased with the condition of the house. Easy stay! FYI: There were no Uber, Lyft, taxi, or trolley services available.

Visiting friends with a stay in Elsah

Elsah is a quaint little village that is warm and charming. We stayed at an adorable house named Finn Inn that was equally clean and beautiful! There's a restaurant across the street that is frosting on the cake!
