Great spot

This house was perfect for a long weekend skiing. Only a 1 minutes drive to the ski lodge. The property was clean and all of the little extras like snacks and laundry detergent were a huge plus. Only complaint was that everyone thought their beds were extremely hard, other than that we loved it.

Paradise Found is Lovely

Great location. Incredibly well equipped kitchen and great big gas grill. Perfect for our big group. The resort is nice too as we did some exploring one afternoon but mostly hung out at the house with its expansive deck and sitting areas. A great facility for a large group like ours. Wonderful and exactly what I needed.

Nice little mountain house

Great stay in a great location!

Greatly enjoyed our time at Paradise Found! Everything we needed was easily found in the cabin. There was plenty of space for everyone to sleep or relax even with our group being close to the max occupancy. House is right in the corner so extremely easy to walk or drive to the pool. General store also very quick and easy drive. Internet had no problem keeping up with all of us. Overall great stay and would definitely stay at Paradise Found again if in the area!

Perfect stay for JMU Graduation Weekend

The only way we could have family (12 of us) attend our son's graduation was to rent a large house. Acorn lodge met our requirements and made our visit memorable. Enough room for everyone to sleep in a comfortable bed and being able to cook meals for everyone made it cost effective. Property was "as advertised " and everyone in our family is still talking about it. Everyone said we need to book it again in 4 years when our incoming freshman will graduate. Thanks for everything!!
