Our Story

Built for People Who Travel With Purpose

The Broken Fiddle Hostel wasn't designed as a stopover. It was designed as a destination — a place where the journey matters as much as the address. Nestled along Damascus Drive in southwest Virginia, we offer clean beds, honest prices, and a front-row seat to the kind of Southern hospitality you can't book online.

Whether you're threading the Appalachian Trail, road-tripping through the Blue Ridge, or simply need a real place to rest between chapters, this is your basecamp.
