Stylish stay w/Hot Tub + Walk to Attractions

Thank you for visiting our listing! Firefly Bungalow is managed by Vacay To The Smokies.

Here at Firefly Bungalow #1, the music of crickets, peepers, and whippoorwills will lull you to sleep. The faint fragrance of mountain magnolia will greet you in springtime. Flashes of fireflies, and rhythms of rain on the metal roof will delight you on summer evenings. Autumn foliage will lure the leaf peepers. Fresh winter snowfall on mountain peaks is breathtaking, and holiday events in the Smokies draw travelers from around the world. Firefly Bungalow #1 is perfect for couples and small families who enjoy being close to all the action and don't mind the occasional road noise that accompanies it.

Living Spaces

The living room has a mist-gray sofa bed, a coffee table, an electric fireplace, and a large wall-mounted flat-screen TV. After a day exploring the mountains, curl up in the evenings and stream your favorite movies or shows, or choose from a variety of family board games.

This freshly remodeled, bright and airy, one-story bungalow is tranquil in all seasons. It has ductless heat/AC units for cooling in the summer and heating in winter. A combination of stylish, rustic-chic furnishings and old-time Appalachian decor give this cabin-style home a comfortable Smoky Mountain ambiance.

A gorgeous barnwood-style breakfast bar offers stool seating for three; the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee! A natural wood, open shelf in the corner nicely displays dishware, glassware, and stemware.

Bedrooms & Baths

A sliding barn door connects the living room and the bedroom. The bedroom offers a luxurious king-size bed and authentic quilts with patterns of bears, bear prints, mountain peaks, and evergreen trees.

Matching live-edge, natural wood nightstands, and lantern-style reading lamps add Appalachian character to the bedroom. The bedroom also has a sleek, modern ceiling fan, tasteful and calming fine art, a small futon, and a work desk with chair. (For guests traveling with small children, a pack and play is also available upon request.)

Toiletries, hairdryer, robes, and plush towels are all provided.
