About Elka

Our Philosophy

Modern life outpaces natural rhythms. Elka exists so you can reclaim agency over rest, creativity, and connection.

“Everything here is yours to use as you choose.”

Why Elka?
Tucked in Mink Hollow beneath the Catskills high peaks, Elka fills a gap we felt ourselves: a place that offers freedom and inspiration without rigid programming. What begins as a getaway often lives on as a personal practice.

How?
We’ve created this setting with nature, design, and self-directed discovery in mind—because the world needs more of it.

Cues + tools + forest = space to create your own rituals.

Sustainability & Stewardship

  • Absolutely zero toxic materials—from linens to body care

  • Refillable bath amenities and compostable packaging

  • Locally sourced furnishings and provisions
