About this property

Firefly Cabin - Dog Paradise w/ Fully Fenced Yard

Welcome to Firefly Cabin in Brevard, NC. Nestled in the trees of Cantrell Mountain. Enjoy a secluded getaway that is located 15min. from Dupont state Park and 25min. to Pisgah Ranger Station where you can enjoy world class hiking & biking. We are a dog friendly cabin and sit on almost a half acre lot that is fully fenced in.

I have someone that comes by each Monday to service & maintain the hot tub. If you are there on a Monday you may see him.

Located conveniently off of a private road without having to drive too far up the mountain. Neighborhood has maintained gravel roads and houses are spaced apart for privacy.

There is space for 2 vehicles to park. Longer vehicles need to be mindful when parking as there is another cabin next door, that the road continues to, and the accessibility of this road can be blocked. Pull up close to the hedges or park sideways if needed.

Wrap around porch on main level extends along three sides of the house, and has a ramp down to the backyard. When front gate is closed, the porch and yard are completely fenced in, making this outdoor space great for dogs who want to hang out outside. Main deck also includes hot tub conveniently outside of kitchen and living area.

Main level includes kitchen, living area, bedroom with queen bed, full bathroom with tub/shower combo, laundry, closet, and kitchen eating area.

Upper level includes loft with hang out area with pull out sofa, desk, large primary bedroom, full bath with stand up shower, and outdoor porch with double swing benches to enjoy the birds and scenery outside.

If bringing bikes or other large items we have a walk in crawl space to store them. Reach out to us and we can give you the code to the crawlspace door.

We enjoyed our stay. The place is nice enough, a few issues. The hot tub was enjoyable. We used the place as a launching point to visit various waterfalls and parks in the area over Labor Day weekend.

The cabin was an amazingly well designed place with a wooded fenced yard for a stay with three dogs. We missed Laura Ingram on the TV because Fox News was not available. Otherwise it was a perfect stay.

This cabin is in a wonderful location… Beautiful trees, secluded… Extremely quiet… We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the deer on the property when we were staying on this special property. The hot tub was perfect… The kitchen provided everything we needed to make meals. The beds were very comfortable. This is a great location for people that want to bring their dogs because the yard is fenced in. We actually ended up spending a lot more time on the property instead of in town because we enjoyed the tranquility and peace.The host was a great communicator and extremely helpful. Loved it!

Excellent spot from which to explore Brevard & Hendersonville! Everything at the cabin was clean & top quality. Both doodles loved the enclosed yard, although their little old ladies moms found it steep despite the ramps provided. David was very helpful & responsive on the day we got locked out. We loved this place, the cool air, the local restaurants & music, and our entire vacation at Firefly Cabin. There actually were more fireflies than I have seen in ages!

Great stay

Clean place to stay. We took our two dogs and they enjoyed the freedom to roam the porch and backyard safely. The hot tub was ready to go before we arrived! That was my wife’s favorite part. Great location, private and quiet. Will stay again in the future.

Dog vacation

My wife, dog, and I had an incredible stay at the firefly cabin. The house was very clean and was stocked with everything you could need during your stay. Our pup loved it as much as we did and we even joked that this was our dog’s vacation! We enjoyed our trip so much we are already planning our return!

What a great spot!

My wife and I enjoyed a long weekend with our two dogs. Fenced in yard was excellent for worry free playing with the dogs. The cabin itself was spotless and well taken care of. We stayed at the cabin almost the entire stay as we have been to the area many times and were looking for a total relaxing trip with book reading, afternoon naps, creative meals and a little hot-tubbing. Great location if you want to be away from it all, but close enough to enjoy Brevard, Dupont Forest and Pisgah National Forest.

Nice stay

Really beautiful area. It was exciting to be where there are no lights and you can watch the stars. The upstairs balcony was terrific for nice conversations over GTs. We had no dogs and can see it is very dog friendly.
