Description Description
The Perfect Asheville Getaway--Firefly Cottage is ideal for a group of friends or a couple's romantic escape! Discover the best of Asheville from this convenient location that's close to restaurants, groceries, and area attractions.

A beautifully landscaped home, Firefly Cottage sits back from the road on a spacious property that feels private even though you're just minutes from downtown Asheville. This home is historic to the area, being over 100 years old. It features the original fireplace, wood flooring and wood paneling in the bedrooms. The fencing outside is also over 100 years old, stemming from the home’s past use as a farmhouse.

Firefly Cottage's fully equipped, recently renovated kitchen allows you the ease of making your favorite home cooked meals while on vacation. Or take advantage of the mountain weather and have a cookout on the Char-Broil gas grill. After a day filled with Asheville adventures, cozy up in the living room and watch movies, or take the gathering outside to sit around the fire pit. Of course, in summer you won't want to miss the beautiful firefly light show in the evening. Two bedrooms offer a sound night's sleep, while a sleeper sofa in the living area provides bonus sleeping space. The shared bath includes a full size washer and dryer.

For the ultimate in comfort and convenience, look no further than Firefly Cottage!

We had a wonderful stay. We were happy to bring our fur baby with us. The place was as described and was set back in the woods a bit and felt private. The bed was comfortable as well!

Very charming place.
I really enjoyed my stay here it was cute cozy and clean and in a really convenient location but also felt away from everything. Very charming place.

A beautifully restored home offering relaxation!
A beautifully restored home offering relaxation after days filled with hiking, sightseeing, or shopping and dining in downtown Asheville. Its perfect location provided a little solitude. Yet, there was only a short drive to the Biltmore, the Arboretum, and downtown. The lovely home was just as pictured and the hosts provided everything one might need for a stay away from home. Would definitely stay at Firefly Cottage on a future visit.
Janice Y - Posted: 10/24/2023 - Stayed from: 10/2/2023 to 10/6/2023

Lovely cabin, perfect for 2 friends wanting to explore Asheville.
Lovely cabin, perfect for 2 friends wanting to explore Asheville. Serene location, far enough away to enjoy the wildlife and quiet, close enough to easily drive and Uber.

Big landscaped lawn twinkled with evening fireflies, while forest & fencing provided privacy.
Big landscaped lawn twinkled with evening fireflies, while forest & fencing provided privacy at a small, comfortable cottage. The small porch was especially nice. Ideal location, tucked off a convenient residential road just minutes from River Arts District & downtown Asheville. The door alarm shrieked upon arrival, but the after-hours staff was responsive and quickly resolved the issue. Overall a cozy spot for 2-4 people.
Denise P - Posted: 7/26/2023 - Stayed from: 6/21/2023 to 6/26/2023
The cabin was spacious and clean.
The cabin was spacious and clean. The big yard gave an ambiance of privacy that can be rare to find. Although tucked away down some curving roads, only 10-15 minutes from just about anything in Asheville.
Dylan M - Posted: 7/24/2023 - Stayed from: 6/8/2023 to 6/12/2023
We enjoyed our stay.
We enjoyed our stay. Close to good hiking trails and very comfortable.

We had a wonderful stay.
It was exactly as described. We had a wonderful stay. The bends and linens were very comfortable. Very cute. The front porch was awesome to hang out on and we enjoyed the grill each night.

Lovely, characterful cottage, well furnished and tastefully decorated.
Lovely, characterful cottage, well furnished and tastefully decorated. Fully stocked kitchen. Looks exactly like the photos! The surrounding gardens are very pretty. The host was extremely professional, responsive, and friendly.

It was quiet and pretty with a lot of wildlife experience!
We loved our visit to Firefly Cottage! The beds were comfy, it was quiet and pretty and we saw so much wildlife. A pair of wild turkeys, deer, a groundhog, rabbits, and evidence of a bear. Asheville is wonderful. We will be back!
Marian C - Posted: 4/30/2023 - Stayed from: 4/3/2023 to 4/7/2023
We had such a peaceful stay with our dog.
Wow! What a wonderful little home tucked away in the woods, but still close to the happenings at Asheville. Everything was so clean and accommodating in this one. We had such a peaceful stay with our dog.
Paige E - Posted: 4/10/2023 - Stayed from: 2/17/2023 to 2/22/2023
This was a great place to cozy up.
We enjoyed our stay at the Firefly Cottage! It was comfortable, cozy, and a lovely place for our dog to hang out. This was a great place to cozy up on the couch as a family and watch shows. Thank you!
The Pionter F - Posted: 4/10/2023 - Stayed from: 3/15/2023 to 3/19/2023
This is the perfect spot.
We loved our stay here. It was in an amazing location but felt secluded and peaceful. The host was extremely helpful and communicative. If you're looking for a quiet retreat with easy access to everything in Asheville, this is the spot!
Paige E - Posted: 3/23/2023 - Stayed from: 2/17/2023 to 2/22/2023
A quiet and peaceful home.
How about a quiet, peaceful home on a nice chunk of land that is actually quite close to all that the city of Asheville has to offer? A quick drive puts you in the Arts District or downtown. A slightly longer drive gives you more hiking options than you could possibly conquer in one trip. The home itself is charming and comfortable, and the communication is top-notch. This will be a repeat destination.
Chip C - Posted: 3/23/2023 - Stayed from: 12/27/2022 to 12/30/2022
Such a Cute Little House!
Such a cute little house! It was even better in person and they had EVERYTHING we needed - even folding chairs for the fire pit! The location was perfect, both the proximity to downtown and the physical location of the house from the road - it was private and very quiet. It was our first trip to Asheville and we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. We will definitely use Carolina Mornings for our next Asheville adventure!
