We loved the house, the view, the deer on the property, the accommodations, the communication with the owners, the well stocked kitchen and paper good supplies, and the Primo brand water system, We were too busy so we did not use the hot tub. It rained a lot the week we were there, so we were thankful to have the use of the garage. This was the best rental we have ever rented from so far. We were very pleased we rented it. Our daughter liked the 2 bedrooms downstairs for her family.

We’re repeat guests at this property and would not want to stay anywhere else now that we’ve found this place! It is so clean and the amenities are perfect. It’s very easy to feel at home here so you can just relax and enjoy the outdoors. We love the peace and privacy of this property while still being close to town/entertainment, breweries, grocery stores, bike trails, etc.

The property and surrounding area is absolutely stunning. Our trip consisted of enjoying the gorgeous mountain weather on a different hike or two with the dogs each day. This was more than enough space for us (no complaints!). The design of the outdoor space and the interior layout is well thought-out. You have ample elbow room that makes for modern usage, but the details in both the interior and exterior design give the property a cozy, private, personal feel. It was clean and welcoming. We found the furniture to be very comfortable. We did not lack for anything. Every kitchen appliance you could ever need was provided. Check-in was extremely easy. Communication with the owner was always clear, friendly and helpful. As we had the pups with us, it was nice to be able to access a vacuum or cleaning supplies for dirt tracked in. Most rentals keep that stuff under lock and key. Carmen and Juan made us feel completely taken care of and are very generous with sharing the amenities of their beautiful property. Thank you so very much for a marvelous stay!

This house is beautiful and an easy drive to get to. Especially at the height of the location. We even got lucky and on our last day the mountains decided to show themselves from the house. The kitchen is amazing and so are the deer :-)

We had a fantastic, peaceful stay at Acorn's Retreat. The home is beautifully designed and maintained and the views are amazing. The kitchen is gorgeous and well-outfitted for all types of cooking. We loved all the art, and the beds are pretty and comfortable. The primary shower is luxurious and spacious! After long hikes each day, we rested our muscles in the pristine hot tub - just perfect. Juan and Carmen were responsive, kind and flexible. We hope to come back again!
