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

Perfect home away from home for college move in!
Arriving at midnight in pouring rain, the kids said it all..."this place is perfect!"Greeted by a sweet cat on the steps, we soon realized that we had found a gem. Clean, quaint house with a lot of character, plenty of space, and everything you need to cook/grill. Hosts were amazing and even made the whole college drop off process more comfortable by offering to help out in any way. We will definitely stay again when we are down to visit our daughter at college!

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!

Cold But Awesome Trip, Great Cottage
Cozy, clean, and family friendly. We were able to hop on the VCT in the front yard and ride. Great river view in the back. It was cold so we tried Bristol Caverns on the first day and braved the cold for a great VCT ride on day 2. This house is in a perfect location, less than 2 miles from downtown Damascus. Owners checked on us. Great house with some character, would definitely stay here again.

A great place to stay
The property was clean and roomy, with 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms (5 beds in all), a large living room and another sitting room. What’s more, it’s located right on the Virginia Creeper Trail. Right now, there’s a lot of construction on the highway that runs in front of the house, but this was not a problem or an inconvenience, and it won’t be happening forever. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly.

Wonderful rental
Our stay was great. The rental was just what we needed for a weekend get away. Very peaceful. The place is well kept, clean and has all the amenities one needs. The owners are very cool as well. With access to the Virginia Creeper Trail right out the back door, one can walk or ride towards Abingdon or up to White Top. Sitting on the front porch that overlooks the river was very nice. Will definitely be back.

Cozy, Cute and Comfortable Cottage on Virginia Creeper Trail
We absolutely loved our stay in this adorable cottage with lovely outdoor areas for relaxing after a ride on the Virginia creeper trial. The The home is spacious enough and quite comfortable. There is a large covered porch with rockers, a really neat fire pit area and a deck over the Laurel Creek. We enjoyed being on the trail for easy access.

Very clean house
Our family enjoyed our stay in the house. It was very clean and the owners are close by and helpful but not in your way at all. Its an older house with tasteful updates and modernized. They are widening the main road so there is construction noise at times. The owners apologized for the noise, but that unfortunately comes with the growth the Creeper Trail brings. Theres a great porch to sit on and watch the river.
