Amazing!

This cabin was the cleanest cabin I have ever rented. Everything was clean. No dust at all. When they say fully equipped kitchen they mean it. The cabin was above my expectations! Detailed directions was provided which made the cabin very easy to find after the gps no longer provided directions. The owners and realtor were friendly with a very quick response. I 100% recommend and look forward to doing business with them again.

Cozy home away from home!

The chalet was exactly as expected! Clean, warm, and comfortable! We had everything we needed, kitchen is extremely well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishes etc. Even had a waffle maker! Beds are very comfortable! Maps, area attractions guides, games, firewood, etc! Tennessee a short distance down the road with lots of great hiking trails! I highly recommend staying here! We were at a cozy home and wished we could stay longer!

Ladies getaway

Everything was absolutely perfect, from the location, the furnishings and the nice stocked kitchen. The only negative was no working can opener. I would and will recommend this cabin as well as rent it again. The ladies had a wonderful time! Thanks so much. Beautiful cabin! Patty, Brooke, Kim and Kay 🥰

Firefly Cabin Vacation

We had a great vacation at Firefly Cabin. The cabin is beautiful, the layout is great for 2 couples, the area around the cabin is pretty and relaxing. Most of all, the cabin was clean and well appointed. You have everything you need for a great stay. The lights in the tree at night were a nice touch! The property manager was pleasant, helpful and professional. We highly recommend Firefly Cabin !

Anniversary getaway

Pictures are exactly what you get. Great assortment of utensils and dishes. Love the power strips in the living area for phones and tablets. Very convenient. Modern appliances and all in working order. Spent many hours on the porch. Rocking chairs very comfy. Mama deer and two babies came twice a day. Would recommend for a quiet getaway. Already thinking about renting again next year for anniversary #53. Thank you Dave and Bonnie for sharing your little piece of the mountain for a little peace and quiet.

Cabin Hunting

My wife and I needed a base camp for the week as we were looking for a retirement property in the area. The cabin was in a great spot and it was quiet the entire week. Lots of deer outside the cabin which was great to see. Would highly recommend the cabin in the future.

Great cabin and location

This cabin was well beyond any I have been in regarding top quality equipment and supplies. Nice and peaceful quiet seclusion. Great spot to be for us to raft down the Ocoee. I would certainly stay there again and it was great for us and our friends. David & Pam Germantown TN

Log Cabin Experience

Dave & Bonnie...We had an exceptional time at your wonderful Log Cabin. It is so quiet and peaceful. The drive up is a bit challenging the first time, but after that easily negotiated and the landmarks understood! The gas fireplace heated up the entire cabin and once we figured out all the remotes (with your help) the Sat. TV worked just fine! And, as an "aside", we loved your cabin so much we are having one built in the area! Murphy is a lovely "small" town, although spread-out in area, and the people are friendly and helpful. By the way, the nearest trash disposal site in now open 24/7 according to the manager there! Thanks for letting us use and enjoy your lovely cabin!

Best Vacation Ever

Our recent stay at Firefly Cabin was by far the best vacation accomadations we have ever experienced. We arrived to find the cabin very clean and organized. The cabin is located in a very private area with great views of the mountains. The owners, Dave & Bonnie were extremely nice and very helpful. I know we will be staying here again in the future.

First class accommodation!

Beautiful cabin, all natural wood inside and out. Top rate dinnerware and silverware. All the cookware and cooking tools you could need. Really done with class. Comfortable, you feel at home as soon as you step inside. Peaceful, relaxing, with wonderful mountain views. Very efficient HVAC system. A real nice find in the Smokies!

Really great place!

We have stayed in several VRBO properties and this has to be the best. The house is well equipped, the beds are comfortable, the technology worked beautifully, the views are wonderful. The furniture in the living area is comfortable. There are plenty of lamps for reading (which we love to do when we travel). The owners provided the needed information to enter the cabin and to operate the various components. Enjoy!

Very nice cabin!

Quiet area, clean cabin, comfortable furniture. Great directions given before arrival, not hard to find. Road was bit winding but to be expected in the mountains. A few steep areas but my Honda Civic had no problems in 2nd gear. We really enjoyed our stay!

About the host

Hosted by Dave and Bonnie

Host profile image
Dave and Bonnie, we are from Florida and just fell in love with Firefly Cabin. It's so quiet, great escape from the heat and humidity. Dave grew up in New Hampshire, Bonnie in Washington state, we did not realize how much we missed the mountains, trees and the change of seasons until we started visiting North Carolina.

Quite often our good friend Rhonda joins us. She loves the hiking and fishing as much as we do. She is in our owner picture.

Why they chose this property

You feel like your in the mountains even though your very close to Murphy, Blue Ridge and Blairsville. Every trip we see more animals. Last trip be saw a bobcat, we always see deer, occasionally we see raccoons, and the fat squirrel is most always there. Still have not seen a Bear, but we have heard tell they are in the area. All you need is bag of deer corn and some bird seed for the bird feeder to draw in the wildlife.

What makes this property unique

Quiet and peaceful, enjoy the quite, read, watch a movie, just talk. There is full internet service, but you can turn it off.
