Great Stay!

Everything was great. The only thing that we didn’t care for was that you had to go through one room to get to the other or to use bathroom in basement. Everything else was great.

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!

The house was easy to enter, accommodating for our group of hiking ladies over 50, and was nice and clean. We needed all the separate rooms and bathrooms, and the laundry facilities were wonderful. Neighborhood is pretty- roads are windy, but not bad. Short drive to SNP.

Mountainside relaxation

Acorn Lodge was indeed a perfect log cabin getaway for a family weekend. We traveled from out of state to visit with family in the area and spent a relaxing two nights enjoying one another's company surrounded by fall foliage and mountain air. The cabin was expansive and well provisioned for cooking and eating together, and made our group feel at home.

Great place to stay

This was a great place to stay. We had a university event here where 10 students stayed in residence with 3 staff. If you're a family, you might be pretty tight at 13 or 14, but we did fine. The spaces were great for meetings and it was very quiet. We enjoyed the ping pong table, hot tub and games. Would definitely recommend.
