Awesome place on the trail and next to the river

The house is awesome with a nice covered front porch to watch the river as the sun rises with a cup of coffee. By far my favorite place to stay around Damascus.

Great location!

This property was in a great location - we were in town for a race on the Creeper Trail. It was convenient to both Damascus and Abingdon. The location right on the trail is neat as well.

Great place to stay

The house was very nice loved every aspect kids loved the swing and the creek only negative thing I could say about it was the mattress in the master bedroom was a bit firm for our liking but some people like it that way and it wouldn’t keep us from staying there in the future

Our stay was wonderful. With the creek at the back of the house and the Va creeper trail at the front it could not have been any better. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the porch in the rocking chairs and watching/ hearing the creek and walking on the trail.The home had everything you could need and the owners were very friendly.

Great location on Creeper Trail

We enjoyed our stay in VA. This cute little house is directly on the VA Creeper Trail and the river is behind the house. Cute fire pit area and really sweet neighborhood cat that my boys got to love on. We had a great stay and would definitely return.

Perfect Fit for Our Group

We had a wonderful stay at TrailSide Cottage. It was the perfect fit for our group and close to family in Damascus. We especially enjoyed relaxing outdoors, having dinner on the deck overlooking the river, and sitting by the firepit. We also met the host briefly and he was great!
