All of the Bedrooms have large closets. In the Living Room is a brown couch which can be made into a Queen Bed. Children's Books and Horseshoe Game made of Plastic so no one will get hurt while playing this game. Bring your computer and do your work during the day and then have fun in the evening with your family. Desk and Chair is located in the Formal Living Room.

The House Sits on 2 Acres of Land with lots of Room for Children to Play. We and our 2 children grew up in this House. We have neighbors on both sides of the house, and they are wonderful neighbors. If you need them, they will help you but if you do not need them, they will never bother you.

One thing we loved about this house while living there is to be able to look at the beautiful sky at night with the moon and stars. Our neighbors are quiet and you and be able to enjoy this night time scene. Also, we enjoyed watching the cows across the road from the front of our house, plus deer grazing in the pasture, and other wildlife such as ducks, rabbits, squirrels, etc.

At the back of the house, we have a nice deck with outdoor tables and chairs for 8 people. If you need more, just let us know before you arrival. Also, there is a grill to use and a Fire Pit to Roast Marshmallows or just enjoy the fire in the spring or fall time of the year. If you need wood, you can either bring your own or purchase it at several stores near Abingdon, Va.

About a mile from the vacation house is located a branch of the Holston River. If you like to kayak or fish, this is a nice place to be able to do either one. If you do not live in Virginia, you will need to purchase a Virginia fishing license. The famous Creeper Trail is located about a 10 minute drive from the vacation house. There are a lot of different places to visit and great restaurants in Abingdon, Va. Just google what you are interested in doing while visiting the area and you can find the location of the place you would like to visit. We love the mountains and that is why we are living in this area. The house is located very close to Tenn., N.C., and West Virginia. You can be in Tenn. in about 15 minutes from the vacation house. N.C. and West Virginia are about 1 1/2 hour drive.

The neighbors who live on either side of the property are very nice people and if you need help, they will be glad to help you. We usually are home most of the time and live only about 1/2 mile from the house. I have on the site, once you have booked, our telephone numbers, which you can call night or day.

If you have any more questions, just send us a message and we will be most happy to answer your questions about the house or the area where we are located.

Hope you will come and visit us soon.

Your Hosts,

Fred & Carol Kaurish

Farmland friendly
Loved the area for hiking and biking - good restaurants in Abington (and at least 1 in Damascus). We were at the house for breakfast and a couple of dinners - the house is not updated but in good shape for its age. What we needed for the meals we prepared were supplied - the kitchen is small but has lots of cabinet space and reasonable counter space. One of 2 full baths was really small and the other one had plenty of room (it doubled as a laundry room). Both baths are side by side and right by 2 bedrooms on that side of the house. Bathroom access from other 2 bedrooms required passing thru the dining room and kitchen. If you like watching TV the smart TV is really good! We tried out the fire pit one night and it was great - we took porch chairs and set them on a grassed, lightly sloped area around the fire pit. A neighbor evidently has firewood to sell but, being more spur of the moment planners, there had been some recent tree work done so there was a good bit of wood close by to gather. I would suggest arranging to have some firewood. If you visit in cold weather the 2 bedrooms near the bathroom get a good bit colder than the rest of the house but there are plenty of covers to stay warm. All in all a nice stay for 4.

Great stay with kind hosts
This property was the perfect fit for our group of two families with small children visiting for a wedding. The house was clean and had thoughtfully labeled directions throughout and the hosts were so kind and available for any needs during our stay. Thanks for a great stay!

Meadowview stay
It worked very well to stay at Carol and Fred’s place so we could see the Great Channels with our international guest! We made our breakfasts and supper in their well outfitted kitchen and found everything we needed for a lovely weekend!

Unique, cozy getaway
This was a great option for our girls trip that included 8 friends. We enjoyed the VA Creeper trail, did some hiking, then sat around the fire in the back yard fire pit. It was very convenient to Abington and Damascus. Great memories of a great trip!

Host profile image
My husband and I are both retired. I have lived in this area all of my life. My husband grew up in Northern Ky. He has lived in this area close to 50 years, so I consider him a native of this county.

He is a retired Engineer, and I am a retired Business Owner. We have 2 children and 6 wonderful grandchildren.

We raised our 2 children in this house. It is a very Comfortable House and a Great Place for Children. We will be Happy for you to Rent from us and also Children are Welcomed. We have this property plus another Vacation Rental called Alvarado Vacation Rental. If one is full, you can check out the other one. If there are things on the Tables which you do not want to be bothered with (especially if you have small children), just store them in the bedrooms which has shelves in the closets.

Why they chose this property

This is a Place where you can Relax and Forget about Everything except Having Fun. This property is very convenient to the Creeper Trail, Holston River (1 mile), Holston Lake many Museums, Restaurants, I-81, Antique Malls, NASCAR, and Plenty of Shopping. There is a winery located in Alvarado, Va. that rents Kayak on the weekends. You have to reserve these to be able to rent them. They are located on the bank of the Holston River, and you can launch your Kayak at their place. If you bring your own Kayak, you can launch it at Alvarado Station or at the Holston River 1 mile from our house. There is plenty of parking at Alvarado Station, plus there is a picnic area, shelter with a swing, etc.

Our Vacation Rental is Located Close to the Creeper Trail and the River. You can either Fish or Ride a Canoe, Paddle Boat, etc. Lots of Trails, Musuems, Rivers, and Great Restaurants in Abingdon. The town of Abingdon is a very old Historical Town and is only about 10 to 12 minutes away from this house. Also, if you have relatives in the area, you can visit them or attend a family reunion. Abingdon has a Sports Center which is a New Edition to our many other Attractions Available for you Pleasure.

We have plug in where you can bring an RV and the charge is $55 per night for electricity. There are 2 tables and 8 chairs on the deck, but we have more tables and chairs if you need them. Also, if you want to have a Family Gathering at the house, we have plenty of tables and chairs that we will rent to you for this event for an extra Fee.

If you have any questions, just contact us. Thank you.

What makes this property unique

Large Living Room plus Den. View of the mountains plus 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. Large Charcoal Grill on Back Deck and Firepit Plus Picnic Table. We have completely redone this house in the last year. The Dining Room is large enough for 10 people to eat. There will be on the deck right outside of the dining room tables and chairs for you to eat outside, if you prefer this kind of dining. Also, we have plenty of plastic plates, eating utensils, etc. to have a picnic on our picnic table. In the afternoon or evening, the picnic table is in the shade and also the fire pit is located close by. If you need wood to burn, reserve this in advance. We have a local guy who charges $6 per bundle, and this is a large, dried bundle of wood---better than Wal-Mart, Lowe's, etc.

Plenty of Parking. We own a Lot at the beginning of the Driveway, and you can Park Cars on the Grass. Close to Major Grocery Stores, Restaurants, and all Kinds of Unique Items such as Bike Trails, Lakes, Rivers, Caverns, Musuems, Antique Stores, NASCAR, Theaters, Parks, Hiking, Picnicking, Swimming Pools either in Damascus or Abingdon.

Damascus has Great Bike Rentals, but you need to Reserve these before Arrival. If you have your own bikes, just bring them to ride the Creeper Trail. Also, located in Damascus is a Shuttle Service to the top of the Mountain. You can then ride down the mountain on the bicycles. The Trail is so Gentle that People Have a Seat on the Back of their Bicycle to Ride Their Small Children.
