TrailSide Cottage, Damascus VA- directly on the Virginia Creeper Trail earns consistent praise for its inviting, well-equipped home and unbeatable setting between the river/creek and the VCT, with friendly, responsive hosts who make stays easy and welcoming.
Guests highlight proximity to town and bike outfitters, plus relaxing outdoor spaces like the porch, riverside deck, and fire pit with views of the water. Reviews also note very clean, spacious interiors with thoughtful amenities and decor suitable for families and groups. A few mention temporary road construction noise and isolated issues like a firm mattress or missing propane, but these were not widespread. Expect a comfortable, well-located base for biking, hiking, and quiet riverfront downtime.

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!

We enjoyed our stay in VA. This cute little house is directly on the VA Creeper Trail and the river is behind the house. Cute fire pit area and really sweet neighborhood cat that my boys got to love on. We had a great stay and would definitely return.

Our stay was great. The rental was just what we needed for a weekend get away. Very peaceful. The place is well kept, clean and has all the amenities one needs. The owners are very cool as well. With access to the Virginia Creeper Trail right out the back door, one can walk or ride towards Abingdon or up to White Top. Sitting on the front porch that overlooks the river was very nice. Will definitely be back.

The house is awesome with a nice covered front porch to watch the river as the sun rises with a cup of coffee. By far my favorite place to stay around Damascus.

We were in town for the marathon, and the house was in a convenient location to the Creeper Trail. It was spotlessly clean and had plenty of kitchen equipment to prepare our pre race meals. The owners were extremely kind to give us a late check out to shower and change after the race before driving home. Highly recommend this rental!

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.

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.

Our family enjoyed our stay in the house. It was very clean and the owners are close by and helpful but not in your way at all. Its an older house with tasteful updates and modernized. They are widening the main road so there is construction noise at times. The owners apologized for the noise, but that unfortunately comes with the growth the Creeper Trail brings. Theres a great porch to sit on and watch the river.

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.
