About this property
Acorn Cottage Village of Bacova in Bath County, VA
Originally built in the 1920's and newly renovated in 2018/2019, Acorn cottage is a charming single level, two bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage in the small village of Bacova, Virginia. Each bedroom has a bathroom attached. Centrally located in Bath County, it is minutes away from Lake Moomaw, Warm Springs, Hot Springs and the historic Omni Homestead Resort. The cottage is 8 miles, (about 12 minutes) from the Homestead Resort. A great home base for anyone looking to get away and explore Bath county's beautiful hiking trails and fishing holes.
****At the recommendation of our County Health department, due to COVID we have added the following procedures for staying at Acorn Cottage.
To protect our guests, housekeeper and ourselves, we are leaving a 2 day gap between each guests stay.
The cottage is deep cleaned between each reservation, which includes sanitizing all doorknobs, light switches, telephones and remotes. We also run a whole house circulating fan between each guests stay.
During, and at the end of their stay, we ask all guests to seal and put their trash to the garbage bins located in the garage at the cottage. (Tom or I will stop by the garage every three days or so and take the trash to the transfer station.)
Guest should run all their dishes through the dish washer.
The small washer and dryer in the cottage are for guest's convenience, (we have a commercial washer and dryer we use for all the cottage linens.) At checkout, guests should place all used linens (towels, bathmats etc.) in the cloth laundry bags provided and leave the bags in the back hall of the cottage for pick up. We will take care of stripping the beds, and wash all sheets and blankets.
Thanks!
Dana and Tom

We live across the village, a short walk away from the cottage in the old Bacova chapel. From there Dana operates her out of print book and collectible book business while Tom has a custom art framing business. Tom is an avid hiker and outdoorsman and loves exploring Bath county's hiking trails and fishing holes. Dana enjoys reading and watching way too many home remodeling shows.
Why they chose this property
Acorn Cottage is a 1920's cottage which we completely renovated in 2018/2019. We tried to retain as much of the original charm of the cottage as we could while at the same time the modernizing the heating, air conditioning, appliances and accessibility. The cottage has a central heat and air conditioning, tankless water heater, high efficiency furnace with MERV allergy filter and a back up propane stove. All doorways were widened and the bathrooms are somewhat over sized to accommodate guest who may have issues with mobility.
