Weekend Stay

Nice house and very good location; the only issue - ants on the kitchen counter. The host promptly delivered ant bait; however, there were still lots of ants when I left this morning.

Convenient location in Damascus

We enjoyed our stay here in Damascus. Nice little house in a great location. On the main road so a little noisy during the day but not bad at night. There were some ants in the kitchen but we dealt with them as we saw them and I let the property manager know so they could deal with them before the next guests arrive. Overall would definitely recommend this place.

Clean and convenient

The property was just as described in listing, and as reviewed by others. It was clean, comfortable, and spacious. The property managers responded very quickly to our request for a sponge and hose. The house is on the main street (as are almost all of the vacation rentals in town), and after reading reviews, I packed my Loop ear plugs because I’m a light sleeper. I had no trouble sleeping; slept very soundly in fact!

We LOVED this little house! Damascus is such a FUN place for us - we love to hike and don't like the busy cities. The house is located ON the Apalachian Trail. Damascus is one of three cities that the trail actually goes THRU the town. We just loved the front porch and the back porch. The kitchen in the house was lovely though we walked into town for most meals. Great location. Highly recommend.

We had a great stay. Clean and comfortable. The road is a bit busy during the day but we had no issues sleeping at night. Also some good people watching from the front porch. Would recommend the homemade biscuit sandwiches from the gas station across the street.

My husband and I enjoyed a nice little break in Damascus. This little cottage is cozy & clean. Just a short little bike ride and your on the Virginia Creeper Trail. Also, nice being within walking distance of several eating places and bike rentals in town. The road out front is busy, but manageable. Will visit again!

Great little place in a super convenient location

So this property is right off the main road so if you’re used to 100% quiet it probably isn’t for you, but we didn’t have an issue at all. We booked bike rentals at the shuttle shack (100% recommend them as well) and it was only two buildings away from the house so we were able to walk. The house had literally everything we could have needed including a sound machine and linens/ dishes/ paper towels. My kids went through all the games and LOVED the yard!! We will definitely stay here again next time we come! :)

The place has everything you need to spend a week in the rural town. We went there to enjoy the bike riding on the Virginia Creeper Trail and hiking in Appalachian Trail. With the guidance provided in the house, we also tried the fly fishing trip and enjoyed it! Definitely will come back again and explore the rich culture of the Virginia Mountain life. There are plenty of firewoods on the backyard. We were planning to build a fire on the fire pit and enjoy the mesh mellow. But it was raining at night and we were too tired in another one. It would be even better if there are chess set provided. My son was into Chess but did not bring one with him this time. The house is next to the highway and may get noisy sometimes. But overall there are not much traffic there. We also had to cross that to go to the down for dining and activities. The bedrooms does not have much space to hang clothes. The linens are plenty and feel brand new. The next door across the street is a hostel and may get many cars parked on the side.

Charming and comfortable house

The house is filled with wonderful touches that made it one of the best stays we have had in a rental home. There were cherry tomatoes growing on the porch and maple syrup in the spice rack. Great lighting, sleeping, TV, and kitchen. The photo, though, does not show the how the home is in the middle of town on a busy truck route close to neighboring businesses. The comfort of the home, though, outweighed the bad daytime traffic noise, and we would stay there again.
