A Hemlock Haven Vacation Rental Home

My husband and I are both retired. I have lived in this area all of my life. My husband grew up in Northern Ky. He has lived in this area close to 50 years, so I consider him a native of this county.

He is a retired Engineer, and I am a retired Business Owner. We have 2 children and 6 wonderful grandchildren.

We raised our 2 children in this house. It is a very Comfortable House and a Great Place for Children. We will be Happy for you to Rent from us and also Children are Welcomed. We have this property plus another Vacation Rental called Alvarado Vacation Rental. If one is full, you can check out the other one. If there are things on the Tables which you do not want to be bothered with (especially if you have small children), just store them in the bedrooms which has shelves in the closets.

This is a Place where you can Relax and Forget about Everything except Having Fun. This property is very convenient to the Creeper Trail, Holston River (1 mile), Holston Lake many Museums, Restaurants, I-81, Antique Malls, NASCAR, and Plenty of Shopping. There is a winery located in Alvarado, Va. that rents Kayak on the weekends. You have to reserve these to be able to rent them. They are located on the bank of the Holston River, and you can launch your Kayak at their place. If you bring your own Kayak, you can launch it at Alvarado Station or at the Holston River 1 mile from our house. There is plenty of parking at Alvarado Station, plus there is a picnic area, shelter with a swing, etc.

Our Vacation Rental is Located Close to the Creeper Trail and the River. You can either Fish or Ride a Canoe, Paddle Boat, etc. Lots of Trails, Musuems, Rivers, and Great Restaurants in Abingdon. The town of Abingdon is a very old Historical Town and is only about 10 to 12 minutes away from this house. Also, if you have relatives in the area, you can visit them or attend a family reunion. Abingdon has a Sports Center which is a New Edition to our many other Attractions Available for you Pleasure.

We have plug in where you can bring an RV and the charge is $55 per night for electricity. There are 2 tables and 8 chairs on the deck, but we have more tables and chairs if you need them. Also, if you want to have a Family Gathering at the house, we have plenty of tables and chairs that we will rent to you for this event for an extra Fee.

If you have any questions, just contact us. Thank you.

Large Living Room plus Den. View of the mountains plus 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. Large Charcoal Grill on Back Deck and Firepit Plus Picnic Table. We have completely redone this house in the last year. The Dining Room is large enough for 10 people to eat. There will be on the deck right outside of the dining room tables and chairs for you to eat outside, if you prefer this kind of dining. Also, we have plenty of plastic plates, eating utensils, etc. to have a picnic on our picnic table. In the afternoon or evening, the picnic table is in the shade and also the fire pit is located close by. If you need wood to burn, reserve this in advance. We have a local guy who charges $6 per bundle, and this is a large, dried bundle of wood---better than Wal-Mart, Lowe's, etc.

Plenty of Parking. We own a Lot at the beginning of the Driveway, and you can Park Cars on the Grass. Close to Major Grocery Stores, Restaurants, and all Kinds of Unique Items such as Bike Trails, Lakes, Rivers, Caverns, Musuems, Antique Stores, NASCAR, Theaters, Parks, Hiking, Picnicking, Swimming Pools either in Damascus or Abingdon. Just Google Abingdon, Damascus, Glade Springs, Saltville, or Meadowview and you can see all the Attractions.

Damascus has Great Bike Rentals, but you need to Reserve these before Arrival. If you have your own bikes, just bring them to ride the Creeper Trail. Also, located in Damascus is a Shuttle Service to the top of the Mountain. You can then ride down the mountain on the bicycles. The Trail is so Gentle that People Have a Seat on the Back of their Bicycle to Ride Their Small Children.
