The Orchard House is located about 3/4 of a mile from Town. A few minutes by car, or 20 minutes walk on the Creeper Trail will get you to the nearest grocery store, which is a Food City on Rt.58. The nearest neighbors, across plenty of lawn and separated by a green wall, are the owners of the rental property, and have several more one and two bedroom cabins available on their gorgeous piece of riverfront land. Please inquire if you have any questions about the cabins! On the other end of the orchard is our resident caretakers home and envy inducing garden, which you'll pass through on your way down the drive.
If you've been here before, then you are well aware of the charm that is Damascus, but if this is your first time, be prepared to fall for this small but lively town with lovely period architecture and a soul of southern hospitality (I promise you will, we all do!)
Boxed in on three sides by National Forest, this area offers unparalleled access to the outdoors for people of all fitness levels. 'Trail Town, USA' is known worldwide for its hiking, biking, and heritage trails. The Appalachian Trail follows Laurel Avenue right through the heart of Damascus. The Virginia Creeper Trail, a 34-mile multi-use trail from Abingdon to Whitetop Mountain, is one of the countries most cherished Rail-to-trails, runs directly though this rental property, and hosts a variety of races throughout the year. The Trans-America National Bicycle Trail, the Iron Mountain Trail, the Daniel Boone Heritage Trail, the Crooked Road Musical Heritage Trail, and Virginia’s Birding and Wildlife Trail all pass through Damascus along their routes. Neighboring parks like Grayson Highlands State Park, Hungry Mother State Park, and the Mt. Rogers National Recreation Area offer hiking at every degree of difficulty, and some of the best single-track mountain biking you will find in the U.S. The highest navigable road in Virginia leads to the summit of Whitetop mountain, which provides panoramic views of three states from over 5,000 feet of elevation, and is a beautiful, but curvy (leave people who get carsick at home) 1 hour drive from town.
Aside from the 1,000 feet of river frontage you’ll be able to enjoy at The Orchard House, there are many more nearby rivers and streams in both Virginia and Tennessee offering world class trout fishing and a wide variety of other game species, along with kayaking and rafting. South Holston Lake (20 minutes from the cabins) is gorgeous and never overcrowded. Renting a Pontoon boat, jet ski, SUP, or kayak are great ways to get out on the water and explore this unspoiled area.
Nearby Abingdon, a Virginia Historic Landmark and thriving artistic community, hosts the Barter Theatre, which opened on June 10, 1933 and is the longest-running professional theatre in the nation. Enjoy unique local shops, historical buildings, a thriving farmers market and year-round live music at a number of venues. Abingdon was voted #1 in USA Today’s “Best Small-Town Food Scene” competition. Try White Birch, 128 Pecan, Rain, The Girl and The Raven, The Peppermill, the Tavern, or The Harvest Table in nearby Meadowview.

There is an abundance of parking on the property, and lots of public parking in town. It takes about ten minutes to ride your bike into town, and 25 to walk.
