We had a great time in Abingdon and our stay at the cottage was lovely. The location was perfect to bike to the Creeper Trail and to many cute restaurants. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and comfortable.
Great location. Went up to visit family. While speaking with host, he called to check in with us to see how things were going, I mentioned we were building a large fence enclosure. Host offered to lend us an Auger to drill the post holes. It saved us about 300 in rental fees. Very nice of them.
We enjoyed our two night stay. We have a 12 year tradition of meeting our friends in Abingdon to see a play at the Barter Theater and enjoyed staying at the house vs a hotel. We will be back next year!!!
We enjoyed this property during our weekend getaway! The hosts were communicative and helpful, it was clean and comfortable, and we loved the convenient location in walking distance of restaurants and shops. I agree with other reviews that a few privacy shades in the main room would be much appreciated by guests, but overall we highly recommend this property, and we look forward to staying here again in the future!

My wife and I are considering moving to SW Virginia and have spent increasingly more time there. We loved the location of the Blue House as well as the house itself. Tastefully and thoughtfully decorated, open and spacious. Abbey and Ron have done a fantastic job on the house and are gracious hosts. Check in and check out were simpler than any hotel. It made for a perfect launch pad for us to hike several times in the area as well as ride the Creeper Trail. A block off the main street, quiet but incredibly convenient to restaurants and shopping. You will love it!
It was a cute clean little house. Conveniently located to downtown. The driveway was very narrow and the trees needed to be trimmed, but we also had a big truck. There was plenty of seating but no table to eat at and could use a couple bar stools. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and the appliances were very nice. Check in and check out were super easy. I would stay again.
We stayed at this property for a weekend. It was in a perfect location for us to ride our bikes to the Virginia Creeper Trail and go to nearby restaurants. It has everything we needed for our short stay. Thank you!
This property is well-maintained, and close to the historic section of Abingdon. Wall mounted temperature control units operate efficiently and quietly. Kitchen is well-stocked with prep and cooking tools. Fridge has through the door H2O and ice. Fun decor, TV has several streaming platforms, lots of nightlights are a nice touch. Easy access to Virginia Creeper Trail for cyclists and walkers. Also would be a good place for Bristol Motor Speedway fans to stay - just 25 min trip to the race and an alternative to the congestion and sold out hotels on race weekend. Nice assortment of retail shops in area from antiques to olive oil to boutiques. Historical sites and an active theater downtown. Recommended restaurants - Rain, 128 Pecan, Gilous Cafe and Girl & The Raven.
We absolutely loved our stay here, it was so cozy and open. The weather was beautiful, we walked everywhere up and down Main Street, the home is right across the street from Girl and the Raven which was an amazing breakfast spot and right behind there is the Sweetbay brewery which had great music and awesome beer! The home is in the perfect spot where itâs close but still private!
My husband and I were in the area for our a anniversary trip and this was the perfect home base. Close to everything in Abingdon, the Creeper Trail, Damascus, and only an hour from the New River Trail State Park.
We really enjoyed our stay. We live coming to Abingdon on our anniversary. The Creeper trail is also real close and the food in town is great
Thank you again

The property was so cute, and the location was great. It was our first time in Abingdon and the host left plenty of brochures for activities and menus for the local restaurants. Overall it was a great experience.
