Description
Nestled in the Blueridge mountains, this cozy cottage sits on 3 acres with frontage on Laurel Creek and a smaller babbling creek along the side yard. Minutes from the Virginia Creeper and Appalachian Trail, there is plenty to do if adventure is your goal or, enjoy the comfort and relaxation inside the beautifully decorated cottage with a good book or cook an amazing dinner in the full kitchen.

The Space
Sitting beside a windy mountain road, the cabin was hand-built with many craftsman details by the original owner and lovingly renovated by us with our family and travelers needs in mind. A perfect cottage for couples or small families, the master and guest bedrooms are on the main level and the loft has three built in full beds and a bathroom with clawfoot tub. Quiet but not secluded, the covered wrap around porch is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee (drip, French pressed or pour over) while listening to the small mountain stream that boarders the yard. A short walk through the woods to the back of the property leads you to the lively Whitetop Laurel Creek, rated one of the best natural trout streams in the Southeast. (FLY FISHING!) The cottage is NOT child-proof. There are stairs without hand rails, there is a fireplace and a fire pit; there is water around the cottage- all of which require careful supervision of little children by their parents.
If you want to explore, we are minutes from the Virginia Creeper Trail, The Appalachian Trail, Beartree Lake and Trail Town USA, Damascus.
It is our hope you leave our cottage inspired and restored for your next

Guest Access
The whole cottage and yard beside and behind the cottage are yours to use and enjoy! The only place off limits are the locked storage closets upstairs in the loft and the upstairs balcony.

Neighborhood
Located in the friendly community of Konnarock, the cottage sits beside a windy mountain road that follows Laurel Creek through the mountains. Across the creek is a well-stocked community store that also serves breakfast, lunch and dinner if you don't feel like cooking! There is no guaranteed cell phone coverage in our area, but we are equipped with Wi-Fi once at the cottage.

Other Details to Note
-This is our home, please treat it as you would your own.
-The cottage is family friendly but not baby or child proof so please watch your little ones closely. Please be aware that our property has a loft and steep steps upstairs.
- The cottage does not have hand rails on the porch or on the lower half up the indoor staircase.
-Please keep the door to the upstairs small balcony locked and closed. It is not available to use during your stay.

    We loved the charming, cozy cottage-beautifully decorated, clean, and set in a stunning spot with mountain sunrises. The peaceful vibe and ever-changing sky made our stay feel special. Its location near Damascus was perfect for exploring Grayson Highlands and biking Virginia Creeper Trail. After last years flooding, we were glad to visit and support this warm, welcoming community. Lovely, helpful host, too!

    Delightful cottage / extremely well equipped with very tasteful and charming decor. Loved the vintage feel and especially the lovely claw foot tub. Location was good but a little closer to the road than we expected based on the description. It is also a minimum of 30 minutes from any real facilities - but we actually enjoyed driving over the mountain. However that is the only minor comment I can make. Host was helpful and responsive too. Will definitely stay here again!

    What a precious home! Only because another family in our group was in a separate VRBO, the lack of texting, calling and GPS availability made a concerning situation since two of the 3 other family members are blind. Not having consistent open lines of communication available was not safe. Now we know. We were in town for the Braves-Reds Bristol game and are thankful we finally found a place to stay after reservations in hotels filled up very fast. What a precious place Damascus is and I hope our contributions to businesses was a blessing to them as rebuilding continues.

    My friends and I had a lovely time staying in the copper top cabin. It was a very convenient and comfortable home base for the neighboring hikes.

    We help with support for hikers (friends) on the AT in the area. The cabin is a perfect location just a few miles from the base camp. Near mt Rogers, and other recreation locations. Comfortable beds and Hot showers, and great location. We will be back next year.

    We loved staying here. Even my kids who I'd don't think would notice how well styled it is and how comfortable that made it to stay there. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, the fire pit in the back nice to use. The only downside was leaving anas in we didn't want to leave and the Google map direct ions were a little weird but we found it and had a great time.

    What a weekend! Hurricane Helene came through on the first day of our stay. Autumn (owner) was fabulous with communication! We lost power and water (she warned us of the very likely possibility). Instead of hiking on the AT and biking on the Creeper Trail we spent our weekend helping neighbors. The house was wonderful and we have already planned a return visit. Thanks for everything!!

    Super comfortable and well-stocked cottage that was a perfect base-camp for a nearby reunion and the Creeper Trail. Autumn is a great host and replied quickly to any question. Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend!
