Lovely lakefront cottage with an awesome deck. There were a lot of ants in the kitchen during our visit - the owners were responsive and tried to get it resolved. My husband got some bites by a spider on the deck one night. The beds were comfortable and the house was a cozy place to spend a few days.

Great Home Base

We were a college group working in Shenandoah National Park. Acorn Hill was the perfect place to stay. Comfortable beds and couch, tons of space, lovely back porch and fire pit, nice big table for meals and project work. It’s lovely home in general. Just be ready for the short unpaved road to the property as it’s a bit rough. We would definitely stay here again!

Very Nice cottage/Excellent stay

Our stay was fabulous! David and Becky made the check in process very easy and were very good with communication and very informative with everything we needed to know. The house was very clean and they provided things for the pets. We only needed to use the sheets to cover the couches and a couple of poo bags. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. Our daughter really enjoyed the tub both nights. There were 4 adults, two toddlers and two dogs and it was roomy for all of us. The kids had plenty of room to play. The shower had excellent water pressure and the water was nice and hot. We mainly cooked there and ate there and they had everything we needed, plenty of pots and pans, etc. We would gladly stay there again next time we come that way.

Wonderful Acorn Hill

What a wonderful little place that was the perfect size for the 6 of us! Quiet, peaceful with a fantastic soaking tub! You can walk to Shenandoah Outfitters where you can rent a tube, canoe or kayak! Close enough to town that you can enjoy the caverns, Skyline Drive, Rescue Zoo and more! Terrific hiking too! Acorn Hill is just the perfect place to get away from it all!!! We had an amazing time and will definitely be back!!!

This little cabin was the perfect size for me and my five friends for a weekend in the mountains! So close to Luray Caverns and the town! Not to mention the view from the deck was gorgeous. I would absolutely stay here again if I were going to stay in Shenandoah
