About this property
TrailSide Cottage, Damascus VA- directly on the Virginia Creeper Trail
Trailside Cottage is directly on the Virginia Creeper Trail and Laurel Creek. Walk out the door for a bike ride or walk on the trail. This 3-bedroom, 2 bathroom vacation rental offers a fully equipped kitchen, den with futon, cozy living room, porch that views the river and a relaxing firepit. River access so bring your water tubes, kayaks and fishing poles.
Come and enjoy all Damascus and Abingdon have to offer and be sure to check out local brewery, distillery, winery and restaurants.
The space
This lovely rental can accommodate up to 7 guests. Completely furnished and beautifully decorated. Full kitchen, dishwasher, central heat/air. One bedroom has full bed and twin bed, one bedroom has a bunk bed (full & twin) and the master bedroom has a queen size bed. Have a den area with a futon that can be used to sleep.

Feel free to access your streaming services, no cable. Gas grill available. Fire pit is available. Smoking is not permitted. No pets allowed.
This home is located directly on the Virginia Creeper Trail. You’re a short bike ride to downtown Damascus (2mi) and to the grocery store (1.2). Damascus is known best as Trail Town USA, where seven nationally known trails intersect within its borders, but it is so much more!
