The place was fine, it was better than camping. But i took a shower and reached for a clean white towel. When i unfolded it, i saw long streaks of brown poop all over the towel. Ruined my stay there.

The Virginia Creeper Trail borders the backyard and the Appalachian Trail is a very short walk away. Close to everything in downtown Damascus. The house is small and the ceilings are low, similar to a lot of old wooden homes in this area. A very nice place for two people. Everything you need is provided. Decor is simple and adequate.

Just what we expected.

If you're going to Damascus to ride/walk the Virginia Creeper Trail, and are on a budget, this is a great place to stay. The guest host was quick to respond and generous in letting us check in a little early, and the house was good in spite of being quite old.Trail access is in the back yard of the home and there are several bike outfitters within a block or two. We went with the closest, Sundog Outfitters, which was very accommodating and had lots of products to enhance your trip.Getting back to the house; the kitchen was well equipped, the washer and dryer, microwave, fridge, TV, AC, and internet all worked well. The bed and pillows were good, though the comforter on the bed was too much. You either had to crank the AC way down or just sleep under the sheet: I think that comforter would keep you warm in an Arctic igloo.The shower was ok, plenty of hot water, but no light so don't try to shave in there. The bathroom sink had so little pressure it was hard to rince your hands, and this is the first VRBO I've ever stayed in with NO bath soap! What?!?The neighbors were less than friendly, working to load an unmufflered truck into a trailer at 11:30pm, but that was surely a one-off experience.And the TP was very good.

We had a great time biking and hiking the Virginia Creeper Trail, which was steps from our door. The cabin had everything we needed and more. We loved being within walking distance of the town and restaurants. We plan to come back again...

Large, comfortable and tidy place to stay. Quiet area that is walkable to downtown. Great parking. Owner communication is friendly and good. Things the place needs: Something to wash dishes with- scrub brush or even just a dish rag. Working front porch lightbulb. An internal lock on both doors for added safety-especially single women...only had a code lock on front (that was testy) and a keyed lock in back. Oven mitts. Fix the trickle only of water in bathroom sink and adjust shower to have hotter water than just body temp-other water sources were hotter. Some people use hand/hair towels in the bathroom and there were none. Kleenex. Pillows smelled a little old and musky....maybe some pillow protectors? Bed was comfortable and bedding clean. Also know the coffee maker is Keurig so pods only if you are bringing in groceries. I would stay here again and would recommend it. Just needs a few tweaks to make it more cozy/user friendly.

We really enjoyed how comfortable everything was from the bed to the sofa, and the decor was really cute too. The proximity to everything we wanted to do (bike, shop, eat), was great too, we could bike everywhere. We'd definitely stay here again.

Love the location of this small house for access to theCreeper trail and the bike shops.
