The House has 4 Bedrooms, Den with Fireplace (Gas Logs) and TV (one of the pictures, which shows the Den, I am standing in the picture but that was a few years ago---life has a way of changing how we look---I am now older), Living Room, Dining Room, Kitchen, 2 Bathrooms (One is very Large with Washer and Dryer and the other one has a Shower with a Seat to Sit on in the Shower), Deck, Picnic Table, Charcoal Grill and Fire Pit.

Children's Books and Horseshoe Game made of Plastic, so no one will get hurt while playing this game. Bring your Computer (FREE HIGH SPEED INTERNET) and Work during the Day and have Fun in the Evening with your Family. Desk and Chair is located in the Formal Living Room.

The House Sits on 2 Acres of Land with lots of Room for Children to Play. Our 2 children grew up in this House. We have neighbors on both sides of the house, and they are wonderful neighbors. If you need them, they will help you but if you do not need them, they will never bother you.

One thing we Loved about this House while Living in the House, was the ability to look at the Beautiful Sky at Night with the Moon and Stars. Our neighbors are quiet and when the skies are clear you should be able to enjoy this Night Time Scene. Also, we enjoyed Watching the Cows across the Road from the Front of our House, plus Deer grazing in the Pasture, and other wildlife such as Ducks, Rabbits, Squirrels, etc.

At the Back of the House, we have a Nice Deck with Outdoor Tables and Chairs for 8 people. If you need more, just let us know before you arrival. Also, there is a Grill to use and a Fire Pit to Roast Marshmallows or enjoy the these anytime during the Year. If you need wood, you can either bring your own or purchase it at several stores near Abingdon, Va.

About a mile from the vacation house is located a branch of the Holston River. If you like to Kayak or Fish, this is a nice place to be able to do either one. If you do not live in Virginia, you will need to purchase a Virginia fishing license. The famous Creeper Trail is located about a 10 minute drive from the vacation house. There are a lot of different places to visit and great restaurants in Abingdon, Va. Just google what you are interested in doing while visiting the area and you can find the location of the places you would like to visit. We love the Mountains and that is why we are living in this area. The house is located very close to Tenn., N.C., and West Virginia. You can be in Tenn. in about 15 minutes from the vacation house. N.C. and West Virginia are about 1 1/2 hour drive.

The neighbors who live on either side of the property are very nice people and if you need help, they will be glad to help you. We usually are home most of the time and live only about 1/2 mile from the house. I have on the site, once you have booked, our telephone numbers, which you can call night or day. We don't meet our guests, when they check in but if you would like to meet us, just let us know. Most guests have a certain amount of time and we feel they should choose how they use their time, when staying at our vacation home.

If you have any more Questions, just send us a Message and we will be most happy to answer your Questions about the House or the Area Where we are Located.

Hope you will come and visit us soon.

Your Hosts,

Fred & Carol Kaurish

Unique, cozy getaway

This was a great option for our girls trip that included 8 friends. We enjoyed the VA Creeper trail, did some hiking, then sat around the fire in the back yard fire pit. It was very convenient to Abington and Damascus. Great memories of a great trip!

Beautiful place to stay

This trip was absolutely amazing. Not only was the house so inviting but so was the owners. They were so helpful with any questions that you may have. The house was great with tons of space and a great location. We were not far from town and from the creeper trail. The house is surrounded by many farms which having children was a great highlight. I would recommend anyone who would love to get away for beautiful scenery and a wonderful house to stay

Beautiful stay in nice home

Had a very nice stay in Virginia with my family. The home was set up great, the bathrooms were very clean and stocked with towels and washcloths. Simple check-in and out instructions and such a nice host. And the home was so spacious, giving all 7 of us our own space + roasting marshmallows in the backyard fire-pit we couldn't have asked for more. Thanks!

Carol was so kind! My sister and I are in our later years and we were having a hard time finding the property. Carol was very kind and stayed on the phone until we got there. It turned out that one of the road signs had a branch covering the name. The property is in a beautiful spot! We enjoyed our stay!

Super Cozy, Great for Families!

We had the best stay! The house was very clean with a ton of bedrooms! It was the perfect set up for families. When the power went out one night I called Carol and she immediately answered and checked with the power company then offered to bring lighting to us until the power came back on. You have everything you need in the home. Plenty of towels and blankets. We loved our stay and appreciated Carol’s kindness so much. We will definitely be visiting again!

Totally Perfect!!

This home was spotlessly clean and totally comfortable. Plenty of room for our group of 5 adults and 3 kids. The bedrooms were spacious and even had room for 2 baby beds. Also, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking essentials. We loved the plush bath towels. Fred and Carol were lovely hosts! They were very welcoming and responded quickly when we reached out to them. Loved staying here and if in the area in the future would definitely reserve this home again!!

A note for people with mobility challenges

This house has many steps to get into it and maneuver around it. There are handrails, but you rent this property at your risk if your mobility issues are serious. Otherwise, it's an excellent property.

Amazing Family Stay

Meadowview was the perfect home and location for our family stay. I met up with my daughter and her family (which include her 7 children) to attend my cousin's wedding. The kitchen had all we needed for cooking for a large group and we could seat everyone easily both inside and outside. The bedrooms slept everyone perfectly. The house (both the inside and outside) exceeded our expectations. Fred and Carol were the ultimate host and hostess---very responsive, friendly, and gracious. We would stay there again if we are back in the area. 5 Stars!

Cabin

We had a wonderful time in this home! The host are amazing, they communicated everything perfectly! They are very sweet people. The only thing I would suggest would be to provide a few more basics for the future stays. When we got there there was only one roll of toilet paper for two bathrooms.. there was only a quarter roll of paper towels in the kitchen and provided minimal basics for the kitchen. (I would suggest more pots and pans - some type of filtered water system- and also unexpired products in the kitchen) Also there is one room that does not get heat so the room with the two twin beds was absolutely freezing! Other than that we really enjoyed our stay!!

Amazing!

This house is situated in a beautiful setting and has absolutely everything you need. It was very clean and spacious. We loved sitting out on the back deck any chance we could! Both the house and property are very well maintained. We came down here for a baseball tournament with an open-ended check out date. Of course it was dependent upon how we did in the tournament. Mr. & Mrs. Kaurish are the best communicators and hosts we have ever had the pleasure of booking with. They went above and beyond to work with us; all while making us feel welcome and cheering on our son! They accommodated us more than we could have ever expected. If you’re looking for a charming home in a beautiful setting with fabulous hosts…. Look no further!
