We needed to stay in the area over Christmas. The owners made it very special for us with lots of Christmas decorations in each room and a Christmas tree. Very beautifully and thoughtfully (variety of chargers in MANY locations) decorated. We had everything we needed and it was quiet and peaceful.

The property was exactly as advertised. We needed two bedrooms and 2 baths and this was one of very few available. I really needed an earlier check in than 4pm and the contact granted this in a timely manner. The property is located in a mixed area with a warehouse and old bus/trolley parking lot nearby. That is quickly overlooked however. This place was comfortable both inside and out. It was well equipped not only with kitchen utensils and cookware but the fridge and cupboards were stocked with many common items located in most homes (seasonings of all kinds, ketchup, mustard, mayo and much more. The host even provided some snack foods and chocolates. The place was immaculate. The beds were comfortable. The outdoor space was private. I would rent this place again and recommend it to others.

Thank you for such a thoughtful review! We're so glad the two bedroom, two bath layout worked perfectly for your needs and that the early check in helped make things easier. It means a lot to hear the kitchen essentials, cozy beds, and private outdoor space added to your comfort, and that the home felt clean and well equipped throughout your stay. Comments like these make all the effort worthwhile, and we're delighted you'd recommend this place to others.

Beautiful and well appointed!

My daughter and I stayed here for our trip to ride the Creeper Trail. It is beautifully decorated, and very well appointed. It had everything we could have asked for to make our stay very enjoyable. There was such thoughtful touches, such as games to play, an umbrella and flashlight, and so much more. We would definitely stay here again!

Cute and Comfortable Home

Home was clean and had everything we needed and more. Really appreciated the small touches - charging ports at each bedside, snacks, wood and kindling for fire pit, even an umbrella! Conveniently located near Creeper Trail and Abingdon’s Barter Theatre. Truly a comfortable home away from home!

Comfortable and Cozy

This home was a perfect home base for our weekend in Damascus. Close to the Creeper Trail, restaurants, and shopping. Beautifully decorated. Stocked with everything you need (and more). You feel more like a house guest than a stranger passing by just renting a room. Big outdoor space for kids and/or pets to run. Quiet neighborhood. The bedrooms are on either side of the house, which gave each couple some privacy. Excellent communication. Thank you for the snacks & drawstring backpack!

Nice Little House

The house location was good for us, as our trip revolved around riding on the VA Creeper Trail. The house has a cute interior, with 2 bedrooms. The house has been remodeled on the inside to make it feel very cozy. If I were in the area again, I would stay in the house.
