Location was great, space was was great, felt a few things needed attention. Screen door on back and rock steps were not the safest. Some areas did not look as clean, kitchen floor and bathrooms were not spotless. Think this quaint older home has more potential than was given. we enjoyed the area and the Pizza recommendation was great. Thanks for sharing your home.

After 2 minutes of arriving, we locked our selfie's out of the house. Went to the neighbors and was givin the owners address. Walked there and got any extra key. The town of Abingdon was awesome. Came to town for the Bristol TN NASCAR race. 30 minutes from the track. I’d go back and stay there again.

Outstanding location; walking score 10. Perfect for biking the Creeper, attending a performance at the Barter, browsing the gift shops, and enjoying wonderful restaurants. The house is spacious and well equipped. Loved the large dining room table for game playing. Unfortunately, one of the guests had to take additional allergy medication given the age of the house and evidence of mold.
Thanks for a very comfortable and convenient stay.

This was the perfect getaway for the weekend. The house was charming and the location was perfect. We never had to use our car because the house is located in the historic district so we could walk to restaurants and site-see as well as ride our bikes a few blocks to the Creeper trail. We will definitely plan to come back!

The house was perfect as a base for our bike trips on the Virginia Creeper and New River Trail. It is only a short bike ride to the Creeper trailhead and close to many shops and restaurants in Abingdon. The house was very clean and cozy with all the amenities we needed. The owners were great to work with. We were able to extend our stay at the last minute which was nice. We would definitely come back the next time we need to stay in Abingdon.

My hisband and I rented this sweet cottage as a gathering sopt for our family Thanksgiving. It was perfect for us-- plenty of room to cook, serve and eat a wonderful meal. The kitchen, though not really equipped pot, pan, and utensil-wise for a large gathering, had great space and very nice appliances that helped us get the job done. The location was perfect, near shops, restaurants. grocery stores, andso foryh. Plenty of parking in the back. Overall it was a lovely stay, we had a great time!

Nice location close to Main Street activities. Quaint home with old style decor. Original flooring and design.

The house was perfectly located allowing us to walk to many restaurants and trails. The property host was very helpful. The bed was comfortable and there was beautiful artwork throughout the house. The house is very, very old but charming and if you are looking for modern amenities then this isn’t the place for you. The bath towels could use an upgrade and a mirror needs to be added to the back bathroom. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much in Abingdon, VA.

This is a great property in an awesome little town. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was adequate. We cooked in breakfasts and our dinner on Friday night, the kitchen had everything I needed to cook a steak, bake a potato, saute some brocolli, make an omelet, hash browns, toast, etc. The only spices are salt and pepper, so plan accordingly. The instructions for the television seem to reference a previous TV, because they mention a motorola remote, and the television is one of the ROKU Smart tv's. Once we figured that out, it worked fine. The location can't be beat, it's about 1/3 mile to the start of the Creeper trail, about 1/4 mile to the Barter Theater (we saw "Kentucky Spring", which was delightful). The house is on Main Street, and you are steps from several excellent restaurants. We had a great lunch at 128 Pecan, and a spectacular dinner on Saturday night at The Tavern, both of which are a short walk from the house. The host, Ramsay, was very responsive when called, and very personable. All in all, this was a fantastic place.

Really enjoyed our state at the property. House was very clean and more than roomy enough for four adults. And the location was perfect! Located in downtown, it's a short walk to great restaurants, stores, and The Creeper Trail.

Little screened porch in the back - lovely! Comfy furnishings and eclectic art I'd be proud to exhibit in my own home.

Historic downtown Abingdon is a magical place that transports you to a magical place. I wanted to stay someplace that echoed that historical cozy charm and this was just the place. It's comfortable, clean, cozy, and in the perfect spot to walk and enjoy some local flavor. Just up the road the a fantastic breakfast place and down from a local coffee shop... and that's just within a few minutes walk. You're just down the road from some of the best Abingdon has to offer. You can't lose with this property.
My only note would be to read the directions on how to get in carefully. The GPS got a little confused but the owner's notes cleared things up.

Beautiful Victorian cottage!
Home away from home. A great location in a wonderful historical village. The host was very accommodating for early a check in. Don’t miss Katbirds wine and gourmet. And the Tavern for dinner, be sure and get the French onion soup!!

Such a charming cottage, and a GREAT location! We were able to walk to restaurants and the local brewery, and the Virginia Creeper terminus is just a couple of blocks away. We loved the spaciousness and homey vibe. While Main Street is a busy road, traffic is slow and it settles down early so we got a great night's sleep in the comffy bed.
A great way to celebrate the end of summer!

Charming.
Property was charming and cozy, an older home with so much character. The location was perfect, we were able to walk for coffee in the morning, meals, and shopping. The weather was wonderful for sitting on the front porch watching cars go by or sitting on the back porch enjoying the quiet. There was plenty of room for our family of five. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Great Location
My wife and I were joined by a friend and rented 2 nights to ride the Virginia Creeper trail. The owner of the property, Ramsey was super friendly and enjoyable to work with. The house is as advertised and really unique and cool place to stay because of the age. The location is perfect for walking and visiting Restraunts and local stores. Highly recommended.

Great location but needs some love
The property is in a great location for walking access to most everything in Abingdon. Property is clean and furnishings are satisfactory. Kitchen is lightly equipped but needs more if plans are for cooking in regularly for more than two people. Also would be nice if there was a charcoal or gas grill. Property is in bad need of rehab and painting of exterior. We would return to the property if the needed exterior work was performed.

Quaint house
House was convenient to restaurants and Creeper trail. Beds were comfortable with good sheets.
