Cozy Cabin For 2-4, just steps from the Smoky Mountains National Park

Janeen, We usually don’t have the pleasure of meeting up with our guests but, we certainly had an enjoyable time speaking with you before you left for home. Great couple, wonderful people. Will have you back anytime in the future. Peace, Alina & Bubba

Well, Suzanne, we promised a natural setting ! So glad you had a good time at the Firefly Cabin. In all the years we’ve been here, we were never treated to opossum WWE fights. The pictures you provided us are spectacular. So crystal clear and cute. We will definitely use them on our website. Thank you for being a great guest and appreciating our little Cain in the Smokies. Please come back anytime.

Glad you had a comfortable stay at the Firefly Cabin. You left the place in great shape. You are most welcome back in the future.

Howard and his daughter were delightful to host. It is not often that we can meet our guests but this was one of those lucky times. Howard took full advantage of the Firefly Cabin’s location next to GSMNP and hit the trails at the crack of dawn. They treated the Firefly with care and left it in immaculate shape. Wonderful guests. We welcome you back anytime.

A great couple who left the Firefly Cabin in great shape.

What a great guest. Teresa took care of the Firefly Cabin as if it were her own. Left the cabin clean as a whistle. You are welcome back anytime.

What a sweet family! Loved hosting these young parents and their adorable little girl. Thank you for being lovely guests and taking great care of the property. Please come back anytime!

You guys were phenomenal guests. And you used the Firefly Cabin for exactly the right reasons; close to the National Park, hiking trails, great fishing and the quaint little town of Bryson City. Other than the bears and the deer munching on the corn pile outside your windows, you should have been very comfortable during your stay. And thanks for the pictures of your hiking and fishing adventures. Please come back anytime.

Thank you, Jose! Jose and his wife were perfect guests. Wonderful experience hosting them— Come back anytime! Alina & Bubba

Tiffany was a wonderful guest. She left the Firefly Cabin very clean. Would welcome her back anytime.

Great guests ! Left the cabin clean and tidy. Would love to host you again anytime in the future.

There’s nothing like a family reunion in the Smokies. From the sounds of it, y’all had a wonderful time at The Little Gem over Thanksgiving. The goats were a surprise to us, also, but that’s the fun of discovery around the area. You never know what you’re going to see the next time you look out the window or head out the door. You are most welcome to stay with us in the future. You left the Firefly Cabin in immaculate shape.

Would absolutely recommend Brittany as a guest to any Vrbo Owner. Great guest and respectful of the property.

One of the things we love about The Little Gem is its deeply forested, remote location. We keep the areas directly surrounding the Farmhouse mowed and the gardens manicured. We do leave the meadow alone, allowing it to be a natural area that regularly attract deer, birds, butterflies, foxes, raccoons, groundhogs and chipmunks. At this point in the year, the blooms are all but complete and it will be mowed soon enough, preparing it for another million or so native wildflower seeds for the coming Spring and Summer. But, as for the Kudzu, the invasive weed started encroaching on our property this year and, as you know, it’s unstoppable. But we have a plan ! “Goatscaping !” After it dies back this winter, a flock of goats will come in and start the feasting process that should irradiate the weed, at least until it jumps the road, again. But, with the newly graveled driveway, manicured gardens, and clean exteriors, we think our Little Gem is a perfect rural getaway. Thank you for the pictures that you sent showing the beautiful area and wonderful moments you experienced during your stay. You are more than welcome to return at any time. Peace, Alina & Bubba

Kari and Andy were perfect guests. They are veteran travelers well versed in short-term rental protocols and etiquette. So happy that they approve of the location so close to trails and attractions in the area. Highly recommended to any future hosts. You are welcome back anytime.

Scott, We are so happy that y’all enjoyed the Firefly Cabin. As our second guest, we appreciate the fact that you trusted us as a ‘new’ host, even though we have a long history with Vrbo. As I said when y’all drove off, anytime you’re ready, let us know. You are more than welcome to come back. Peace, Alina & Bubba

Thank you, Karrie, for your kind words. And thank you for your understanding during your stay. You are welcome back at any time in the future.

We knew your first Short Term Rental experience would surprise you, especially with us. Not all STRs are created equal. We absolutely pride ourselves on peaceful, calm, and clean. And it is funny that you mention a ‘privacy fence’ between us and the next property as we have planted fast-growing Leyland Cypress trees along the property line. They should alleviate the view of our neighbor’s storage shed in no time at all. Also, we’re happy that you appreciate the homage to the Cherokee who ancestral land we now steward. It is only fitting that the past is acknowledged and the future is preserved. You are more then welcome to return at any time. Peace, Alina & Bubba

We appreciate the high rating. We certainly had issues over your stay with the lightning strikes knocking out the electrical and frying the water pump. We appreciate your patience through it all. Please come back anytime.

Wonderful guests ! Took full advantage of all the Firefly Cabin had to offer. From picking blueberries and blackberries to using the grill for gourmet cookouts, it looked like John and his family very much enjoyed their stay.
