Activities available to all of our guests include the shared saltwater pool, corn hole, and fire pit.

Firefly Lodge has the most spectacular, sweeping views of any of our cabins, and is a favorite among our guests. In season, fireflies sparkle throughout the 48-acre property, from grass to treetops. Firefly Lodge provides 4 bedrooms (see Sleeping Arrangements below for bed layouts) and 3.5 bathrooms. This 2-story lodge has an open floor plan on the main floor for the kitchen, living room with 65" Roku TV/DVD, and dining room. Fully equipped kitchen features a Keurig, industrial coffee maker, retro appliances including 6-burner stovetop, convection/regular combo oven, dishwasher, trash compacter, microwave, fridge, and all the cookware/dishes needed to prepare meals.

Soak in the private hot tub, conveniently located on the patio by the pool. You will also have access to the shared pool at Elk Lodge on our main property, from May-September. Gorgeous views of the surrounding mountains from the bedrooms & main rooms, balcony, and pool area!!
