I think most people shied away from Rivendell. If I remember correctly, even Boromir had some apprehensions about going up there.

I get the impression that elves were so insular that their reputations suffered. The mystique surrounding Galadriel and Lorien proved to be quite unjustified (at least in relation to men).

Some of this makes me wonder what kind of reputation Cirdan and they Grey Havens had in the late 3rd Age.
