Cozy Clean Cottage

We had such a great stay. The house is so clean, stocked, and cozy. Our dog was also with us and she liked the backyard. We spent a long weekend and when we come back, we will stay here again! The A/C was awesome and so was the shower. The location is perfect.

Relaxing Get-Away

We really enjoyed staying at your cozy little house. Easy access to the bike trail, and short walking distance to a restaurant and several bike shops made for a great get-away.

Check in was very easy.Noted recent upgrades on all appliances. Creeper trail runs right across the street, with a bike rental shop across the street too (check to see if open.) This makes it a great location for trail riders, or those that only want to watch the riders go by. Right beside of a restaurant. Other eats not far away. Great location, great stay.AWESOME rain shower!

Thoroughly enjoyed our long Anniversary weekend celebration. Access to the VA Creeper Trail was just across the street. We were aware "Fine Dining" as well as food shopping options in the immediate vicinity were going to be limited so brought along supplies to prepare our own intimate dining experiences. Kitchen was sufficiently equipped and access to a nice covered back porch with gas grill was greatly appreciated. The accommodations were adequate and the weather was absolutely perfect. The town seems to be just "hanging on" until the upper part of the trail is repaired. We wish them well and look to return in the future.

Relaxing and cozy

This is our second stay at this cozy dog friendly home. We enjoyed biking and hiking the creeper trail from just a short walk out the door. Conveniently located near delicious Wicked Chicken and short walk to Damascus diner. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy time with family, friend and pets. We had a great time together!

Immaculate two-bedroom one bath house with a great front porch, back deck, and fenced-in back yard for furry family member. The "Wicked Chicken" next door is one of the most enjoyable restaurants I've encountered—excellent access to the trail and Abingdon and the many area sites.

Comfortable and Convenient

When staying in Damascus this is where you will want to stay. Privacy and walking distance to everything. The Creeper Train is directly across the street. Laurel Creek runs right through the town. There is water surrounding this area. The house is big enough for four people maybe more..and it has lots of living room and dining seating. I felt save and very comfortable inside the home. I did have a few issues but my questions were answered and taken care of. I would stay here again.

This is my third or fourth year staying at this house. I come to visit my family that lives in shady valley, TN. It has a large fenced in yard, which is perfect for both of my dogs. A very clean and cozy house. We enjoy listening to the band during the day, when we're there, at the little restaurant next door.

Such a sweet little place with great access to the town! Since a good portion of the Virginia Creeper Trail is closed right now we used the house as a jumping off point to a day of hiking near Boone and another day of exploring Cherokee National Forest. The fenced in backyard was great for our dog. We ate out for all meals because there were so many great options and didn’t use the kitchen much but it looked to be well appointed. WiFi was strong and the TVs were great.

Nice amenities

The street number that was sent to us is incorrect. But we located it by photo. We were charged a last minute cleaning fee, but the floors and back porch were not cleaned.The kitchen had everything you would need for your stay and it is appointed well. The furnishings in the house are very nice. Bathroom updated and nicely done. We would stay again, but would appreciate if it was cleaned up a bit more. Especially the back porch.Proximity to the bike trail and AT is excellent.

Great base for Creeper Trail

A single family house with nice sized fenced-in yard. Furnishings were simple but more than adequate. Location is the big appeal to this property, right in town with the major bike rental outfitters for Creeper Trail literally across the street.As of April 2025, the community is still rebuilding from Helene damage, but still has plenty on offer in Damascus, nearby Abingdon with the Barter Theater, historic downtown and nice restaurants. Appreciated the book about Mount Rogers Natl Historic Area in the home to help us prep for a gorgeous hiking adventure there with the wild ponies.
