It was a great location to relax and connect. Not walkable due to no sidewalks, but we were able to walk around the neighborhood to get some exercise and just had to watch for traffic. The walls were thin and I could hear the person in the room above us walking...he may have been a heavy walker, but a rug should help keep the creaking to a minimum. It did not detract from the overall calm, quiet and ability to enjoy being together.

After Christmas family trip

The house was perfect and very well equipped. They had plenty of kitchen equipment, extra blankets and pillows, and games for the kids. The rooms are laid out very well so everyone had their own space. It was in excellent condition and very clean, and in great proximity to the ski activities.Everyone enjoyed the decks, hot tub, and Mountain View’s. We would absolutely stay here again! Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Great spacious house

We had a great family vacation and were very pleased with our stay at the Acorn Lodge. The management company VPMS was very responsive with all my inquires before our arrival. The property was well kept. We loved that the house has two dishwashers to accommodate a large group. We also enjoyed playing ping pong in the basement.

Cute, stylish, clean, and loads of accommodation

What a lovely cabin for a big group to share! We were impressed with the fresh and stylish decor. The cabin has obviously had a recent renovation and it’s nicely decorated too. Lots and lots of comfy beds and bedrooms, and the way the downstairs was set up more for kids while the upstairs was more grown-up worked really well for our group that ranged from 1 yr olds to 65 years old!

Cozy Weekend Getaway in Nice House

Very clean. Nice layout. Home appears to be older but well taken care of and no maintenence problems. Hot tub was clean & worked well. Bedding, linens and towles very clean. Have stayed at several properties in Massanutten Resort over the years and this cabin is in nice & easy to acess area. Plenty of parking for 4 vehicles in driveway and driveway is pretty flat area compared some of the very steep driveways we have in other areas of the resort. I highly recommend this house for families, as we had 13 with us and could have brought several more with no problems. Overall, great property for the price, as have paid much more for other houses that were not worrth the price.

Lovely Christmas stay

Lovely stay. Ample room for everyone. Clean and comfortable. We did nearly get stuck trying to get out of the very steeply inclined gravel driveway. If there had been any ice or snow we would have had to be towed out. So if you don’t have 4 wheel drive you’ll need to park on the street and carefully walk to the house. There is no backyard or place for children to play outdoors (especially since there was no snow) which was difficult. But there is plenty to drive to to engage the children. (Tricky when half your grandkids have to take naps). There is a finished basement and a hot tub however, so we made do with the spaces when we couldn’t get away from the house. The kitchen was nicely appointed and there are TWO dishwashers!!! What a blessing for a group our size. I’m hoping the homeowner gets the note that the stunning light fixture in the living room was rendered useless by the blinding fluorescent office light bulbs. Some soft yellow bulbs would make a MASSIVE difference. There is a gas fireplace which we enjoyed every day and the Christmas decor put up by the property company was very much appreciated. We would stay here again.
