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!

October 2025

Despite the rainy weather my husband and I enjoyed our time at this cute cottage in Damascus. It is as it appears in photos, is in a quiet area and has a very comfortable couch and king sized bed in the primary bedroom. We sat outside at the fire pit our first night there using the fire wood behind the shed. We did have to search for a fire starter but found it in a back room. We appreciated the bottle of wine and basket of snacks left for us next to the coffee. :). The kitchen worked great for preparing the meals we brought with us. (Though some of the spices are expired, the salt, pepper, and sugar were all we needed.) We had a glitch with the wi-fi cutting in and out, but quick communication with Anya and the owner assured us that a re set of the router would bring it back, which it did. The owner also mentioned that they were getting a new internet provider at the end of October, so it shouldn’t be a problem for future users. Damascus is a lovely little town and has a lot to offer recreation wise. Abingdon, about 20 minutes away, also has plenty to do. We were rained out on our hiking and climbing plans and spent a day in both towns. We look forward to returning in the Spring and taking advantage of all the outdoor opportunities.
