Acorn Vacation Properties

“Had a nice stay this weekend. The views were stunning and location was perfect. Unfortunately there was an ant issue at the house. We noticed ants when we checked in and then when we woke up in the morning there were a swarm of ants in the sink even though all the dishes had been cleaned the night prior. This was an on going issue over the course of the weekend. Not sure if it’s the time of year with the heat or what’s going on but other than that we had a nice stay”

“Great location, nice spacious house. Unfortunately the beds were way too soft and squeeky as mentioned in the previous reviews, it was impossible to have a restfull night on them. Ok for kids but super uncomfortable for adults.”

“Good location! However, it was very hot inside the house and even with the windows open hard to get comfy. Not a ton of fans and the neighbors were loud so we couldn’t sleep”

“I would not recommend this property if you like a well kept and clean space. Acorn Properties mention additional housekeeping fees if you want to check in before 5pm or after 11am, however housekeeping is not a priority in this property. The house has a broken window screen, which can allow people or animals to easily break in. The shower sliding door is on a crooked wheel and fell on my brother's foot when he went in to shower. There's spiderwebs and spiders throughout the house. There are other hazards that should be addressed to prevent small and elderly guests from getting hurt.”

“2 broken AC units master bedroom not usable unsafe driveway and stairs no dock ramp access the first day fake filtered photos not acceptable rental not maintained properly broken bbq”

“As a family, we frequently stay in national parks and similar properties, so we understand that older cabins can have limitations. The location inside Yosemite is beautiful and was the highlight of our stay. Unfortunately, the management and overall value were disappointing. Communication was poor. After our stay, I asked why our week was priced so much higher than other weeks and never received a response. We experienced multiple maintenance issues, including a broken microwave, noisy old beds, a frequently clogged toilet, and having to take our trash to community dumpsters every day. The biggest issue was the price. We paid approximately $5,300 for one week, which felt excessive given the condition of the property and level of service provided. After our stay, I noticed that most other weeks were priced closer to $3,500. Overall, the location is outstanding, but the experience did not justify the price we paid.”

“location is great, house is clean, but it's very small for what I paid for. very small living room, very small kitchen. bedrooms are ok. the worst thing is that we had to take out the trash bag in our car and drop it off at a dumpster that's blocks away. imagine if the garbage bag leaks.”

“I have never had a negative experience or had to write a bad review before. This was the most difficult,noisiest,dirtiest,most poorly kept place I’ve ever stayed in.There were spiders in every room.1 crawled on me while sleeping. The level of difficulty of getting up & down those stairs only to be met w more stairs when you come in the house itself was a nightmare. Entry light in the house didn’t work, broken trash can, someone left the HEAT (how?!) on & it was over 85° inside when I had to take 5 trips up & down those horrid stairs to get all of my items in. They claimed there is portable AC—it isn’t portable,only upstairs & doesn’t cool huge open space. There is no AC downstairs in the sleeping quarters so it is HOT. People slamming car doors starting at 5 & constant construction equipment sounds start at 6.Awful communication, power outages, outlets didnt work, laundry left on floor,broken windows/screens, you have to DRIVE your trash, outdoors broken/messy items, cold showers.”

“Acorn properties pressured us into leaving positive feedback, stating they had left "glowing feedback" for us. I had a feeling they were sketchy and withheld my review. After two weeks (right before we could no longer leave a review), the script flips and they were "attacked" by my 4mo puppy along with several other ridiculous accusations. A blurry picture with nothing in it was provided as evidence. We stayed on a weekday and woke up many times due to my car alarm sounding and inebriated people partying late on the adjacent Acorn property. Drug activity (people living in their car) FEET from your window. The floors are peeling and GROSS. We couldn't determine if the bugs (especially on the couch) were fleas or bed bugs. We left the place in better condition then it came in and buried the puppy's poop, yet Carl came up with dozens of reasons (no exaggeration) why he has to keep our money. I have little doubt he does this to everyone and has zero concern about repeat business. 0/10.”

“It was a decent place to stay for a couple of nights. We had a couple of issues, but we made do. The biggest one was the lock on the thermostat. They wanted fees to basically be comfortable. The listing states it is “limited”, but doesn’t say what that limit is, and imo it’s locked too high for warm temps. We had to leave the door open to cool the place off. You can hear sounds from surrounding units, but that wasn’t too bad. The only other problem was the huge spider still occupying the bed when we arrived. Overall, it was ok for a quick visit.”
