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.

This is the perfect "dog paradise". This is the second time we stayed here and we love it. The cabin is comfortable and there is lots of space for the dog to roam. Highly recommend it.

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!

A great experience

The cabin was in perfect condition and the fenced in yard was an excellent area for our dogs to get out and get some exercise. The location is great as it is only 15 minutes from downtown Brevard. Beds were extremely comfortable.

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.

Great house

We have stayed in the Brevard area many times over the years and this was our favorite rental. The house is in a great location between DuPont where we like to hike and Brevard. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. And our dog loved the yard.

Firefly Fun

The Firefly Cabin was a perfect spot for our mountain getaway! It was close to town & to the local hiking & breweries. The house was perfect for the 4 of us. Our dogs loved the fenced yard for running around and investigating all of the new smells! The kitchen was well stocked for meal preparations. Lastly, the hot tub was a wonderful way to end a day of hiking! Will definitely return to the Firefly Cabin!!!

Loved staying here

We spent 2 weeks at the cabin and it was everything it was advertised to be. It was extremely dog friendly, with a large fenced property. The cabin was nicely equipped. The kitchen equipment was well thought out. The porches were comfortable and great for enjoying the outdoors with a good book. There were more than sufficient supplies in the house, towels, soaps, kitchen cleaning products, etc. The house was convenient to downtown Brevard and it's offerings. It was a fairly easy ride to the Blue Ridge Pkwy and its views. The owner was very easy to deal with. We enjoyed out stay and are seriously considering re-booking this cabin again next summer. Highly recommend Firefly Cabin.

Fabulous retreat

We recently stayed at David's property and had a wonderful experience. The house was just right for us, with all the amenities one could wish for, including a fantastic fenced yard perfect for our dog/fur baby. David provided clear check-in and check-out instructions that made our arrival and departure smooth and easy. David’s attention to detail and hospitality shone throughout our visit, making us feel at home. We are especially grateful for the pet-friendly accommodations, which made our stay extra special. The house met and exceeded our expectations with its view and comfort. The hot tub is awesome. The two porches are great. The quiet was blissful. Thank you, David, for such a fantastic getaway! We look forward to returning soon.
