We have been vacationing in Brevard for the last 3 years. Acorn’s retreat had the best view we have had. The house was big and the beds were comfortable. Everything we needed was there. We had multiple deer visits and white squirrel sightings. The hosts were quick to respond when we had a question. We totally enjoyed our stay.

This is the best VRBO we've ever stayed in! The house is beautiful, inside and out, the property is wonderfully landscaped, the kitchen has everything you might want in the way of utensils and appliances, the beds are comfortable, the main bathroom's shower is to die for, and the view of the mountains is perfect! Don't forget there's wildlife all around. We saw deer and Brevard's famous white squirrels every day. We used and enjoyed the hot tub on several occasions, as well as the firepit. Juan and Carmen were easy to communicate with before and during our stayCouldn't ask for a better vacation experience. We will definitely be back!

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.
