Perfect getaway spot

We stayed in Abingdon for the weekend, as we were attending an Emory and Henry college football game (a quick 20 min drive away). The cabin was very well stocked and there was great communication with the host. The fire pit is lovely. We hope to stay again soon! Thanks Melissa!

Family Vacation at Lake Holston

Overall this is one of the better VRBOs that I have stayed at. The house is very nice, the property is well maintained and the area couldn’t be better. Very thankful for our host and their communication. We will be back!

Driftwood Lodge

Great time staying at Driftwood Lodge. Everything as in pictures. Lots to do inside and outside of house from relaxing, playing the variety of games, fire pit, and lake. Everything we needed was supplied in the house. Would recommend to others. Would love to stay again in the future. (Side note- Driveway is a bit steep, but had no issues).

Great family home

We were so happy with our stay at the Driftwood Lodge. There was plenty of room for everyone to have some personal space. My kids (12 & 16) enjoyed playing ping pong and air hockey downstairs. We were also able to enjoy the canoe! It is a nice neighborhood for walking in the evenings with beautiful views of the lake. The house was clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We hope to visit again!

Great weekend

Me, my wife, and 21-year-old daughter enjoyed the weekend at Driftwood Lodge. The location is near the South Holston Lake, where we kayaked on Saturday morning. Only about a 15-minute drive to Abingdon or Damascus. Near the Creeper Trail. Very clean and well-stocked.

Abington VA weekend

We had a great time. The house had tv’s in almost every room. Multiple game options with air hockey, ping pong, table tennis, and other board games. A canoe was available however the water level was low so we didn’t use it. The house was very clean! It was about a 15 minute drive to the creeper trail welcome center. There is also an access point about five minutes from the house.

Family Christmas Trip

This year for Christmas, we chose to have experiences rather than exchanging gifts. We chose this cabin as a place to meet up and it was perfect. Plenty of room to hang out and still have separate bedrooms for each couple. It was also great as we each have a dog and they all had plenty of room to run around. Don't let the picture of the small table fool you. It expands to seat plenty of people. That was one of my concerns from looking at the listing as we knew we wanted to eat together at the cabin. Overall a very nice place to stay.

Wonderful Stay

We love this house and location! This is the 4th time we have rented this house, and we just love it. We love the location, the views, the peacefulness and the house itself. Melissa was once again a wonderful host. There is great communication, and she is very friendly. We are already looking forward to our next visit. :-)

Nature and Relaxation

The property accommodates multiple couples with 3 floors, 3 bathrooms. Supplied everything we needed from clean linens to coffee. We didn’t get the opportunity to take advantage of the lake but the setting was beautiful. Minutes away from events. Our whole group enjoyed it so much.

Wonderful home away from home!

The property was beautiful and the house had every convenience of home. We didn’t lack a single thing. The view was spectacular, quiet neighborhood with regular visits from the local deer! Melissa was super easy to communicate with. We would absolutely love to stay at Driftwood again! (The ONLY snafu was a booking issue with the VRBO platform in which we were able to make a reservation on a day the property was already occupied. Thankfully we were able to change or travel dates, and Melissa was super apologetic (not her fault) and helpful in switching the reservation)
