Great place to stay and enjoy nature. Close to town to enjoy the activities there. The Virginia Creeper Trail is right in front of the house for easy access whether biking or hiking. Very clean and spacious with everything you’ll need for your stay.

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.
