Shenandoah Acres Resort, Blue Ridge Mountains, Virginia   Shenandoah Acres closed down about 2 years ago. I am going to miss it. I went there several times a year for over 45 years. Says Debbie Bush I read a review of Shenandoah Acres on here. I was shocked to hear that it was closed. My parents use to take my sister, brother and myself there every summer when we were little. It really was a great place. I was now hoping to be able to go there with my husband, who has never been there and to one day take our children, but I guess we will have to find a new safe place to take our children....It really     is a shame to know that it is no longer open! Says The Stewarts I was so sorry to hear it closed. My ex-husband and I took our kids every year. Was hoping my boyfriend and his daughter could enjoy it this summer, since we finally got a camper!! Sorry to see you go. Says Pam I am so disapointed!My father brought me to shenandoah acres many years ago 1955-56.I found pics from that trip last week and wonted to revisit a happer time.so sad that I didn't get there at least one more time. Says diane busch (bowers) Did not know that it was closed until I read so on this site. What will become of the property now.....and does anyone know why it was shut down?? Says Scott: We really miss it alot and dont get up that way to see if someone has reopened it as campground or time share dose anyone know Says   JEREMY Wow, this is a SHOCK!! I haven't been there in a while but I never thought it would be closed. I remember when I was little me and my sister used to pay to ride the horses like twice a day I loved it. I also loved the big slide and I waited so long to be tall enough to ride on the thing you hang on to and glide down til you let go it was awesome. I'm really gonna miss it I wish there was some way to have it reopened...:( Says Chrissy Closed, you've got to be kidding. I have been looking forward to taking my family for years. The kids are finally old enough to enjoy the trip. I am down. Very sad, my family used to travel to this area often. When did it shut down? Says Gosh! I don't beleive it. That is where my dad took us in the summer for our vacation with him. I had fond memories there. Why did it close? was it family owned? is it for sale? What, I hope it's not gone forever. Says S Boggs I grew up near the ''acres'' and lifeguarded their for 5 summers during the mid to late 70's.  The original family owners sold after the liability insurance forced them to remove all the pieces that made the acres what it was i.e., cable, diving boards, big slide, the top.  They put ina big slide on the backside of the tower called the Pink Zipper the year before selling, but that did not work as far as drawing crowds. Says Sorry to hear shenandoah acres has closed…It has always been a fun place to visit and all of the campers seemed so happy..I hope it will re-open in the future. Says It is really a shame that this resort has been shut down. Soon there will no place left to take the family for a real down home outing.
