Perfect for Extended Family
This was the perfect property for our long weekend trip with extended family. Excellent shared spaces along with privacy in the bedrooms and bathrooms. The little kids loved the huge shower in the downstairs! The location was perfect for spending time and exploring Damascus. Lovely front porch and back deck. We were able to walk to the bike shop for our rentals and shuttle service to Whitetop Station. Very convenient to walk to shops, restaurants, and parks. Short drive to the grocery store.

Creeper trail castle
This house was in the smack middle of everything. We did a dad and daughters trip to bike the creeper trail and once we parked we never got in our cars again. Coffee shops, restaurants, and even the bike rental place were all within a few blocks The house was very clean and well-maintained and the beds were comfortable. The house, the town, and the whole experience felt very inviting

This is a perfect location, wonderful well-stocked house and apartment. If you have very small kids, you just have to watch out, there are a lot of exterior doors, on a busy street in front and a creek/river in the back. Practically on top of the Creeper Trail.(Across the street.)
