Creekside Cottage just steps from Fightingtown Creek & 10 minutes from downtown.
*** Both baths have been newly renovated ***
As you enter into the screened patio, peace and tranquility will be your only thoughts. This is everyone’s favorite room! The babel of the creek will lure you to rest on the comfortable sectional and take all your meals at the traditional farm table. You may even nap there in the afternoon or sleep there under the stars with the twinkling of the fireflies and the chirping of the crickets. Party lights that dim have been installed to create the perfect ambiance and lighting needs.
The remaining part of the patio has additional seating and a gas grill. Guests with children and fur children will love the flat and .3 fenced in acre for safety, play, and convenience. In the cooler evenings, enjoy the firepit with seating for four with tiki and solar lighting for pests and safety.
Fightingtown Creek, itself, is nothing short of fabulous! Yes, it does have trout and we have an excellent spot. You can wade, play, sit in a chair or float with you toes in the always chilly, but refreshing, water.
Upon entering the cottage, the floor plan is open and one-story which is great for seniors and toddlers. The dining room, just off the kitchen, has a unique, live edge handmade wooden table and ceiling fan.
The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances and everything you will need to prepare and serve meals. However, we have no dishwasher. Because of this, we will provide paper products and plastic utensils. Thank you for understanding.
The living area has a futon and sofa overlooked a charming, stone fireplace with gas logs. Above, is a 50-inch flat screen TV with cable. It’s the perfect place for watching football games or cozying in on a cold night. Washer and dryer are located in the hallway closet.
The three-piece guest bath (shower/tub) is conveniently located to the main areas and guest room. It has plenty of storage under the vanity. The guest bedroom has a large wooden handmade queen bed, ceiling fan, and ample closet storage and shelving.
The spacious master suite has a king bed, ceiling fan, dressing table and mirror, and a dresser for storage. The en-suite has another three-piece bath (shower only) with storage under the vanity.
If you are looking for a charming creek front property that is only 10 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge and all its amenities, then Firefly Cottage is for you!

We enjoyed our stay at Firefly Cottage with our furbabies and teenage boys. The screened-in porch was our favorite spot right next to the creek. We are thankful for the fenced in yard to allow our dogs to run free. The house is conveniently located to Blue Ridge. We hope to escape there again soon.
Wonderful relaxing stay. We loved the cottage, it is beautiful and cozy . We enjoyed the fire pit, the screened in poarch and the creek just a few steps away from the poarch. Everything labeled and easy to find. Thank you for a great stay.
This lovely cottage had absolutely everything! Our dogs loved the doggie bowls and treats - not to mention the almost 1/2 acre of fenced yard for them to run in!! We will be back in the spring to enjoy the beautiful creek and lot! Thank you, Melanie!!
The cottage is right on the creek and you can enjoy sitting on the screened in porch listening to the creek! The surroundings are so peaceful and quite! This cottage has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The host is very responsive to anything you may need. We look forward to our next visit!
Stayed here over Christmas. Beautiful house and property. House was immaculate and decorated for Christmas. The large fenced area was very well lit and perfect for our dogs.Creek just steps away from with easy access for fishing. Screened in porch was a perfect place to relax and listen to the water between casts. Nice fire pit also right next to the creek.Host’s communication was fantastic. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a place to unwind with room to breathe and easy access to anything in the area!

Thank you so much for your review. we look forward to having you visit us in the future.
Firefly cottage was wonderful. Best pet friendly vacation home that we have ever stayed at. The locatuon was so convenient to Blueridge, Merciers Orchards, and surrounding area. Melanie and Ritchie were just wonderful. We will be back for sure.
This is our third day at firefly cabin and everything was excellent and enjoyable as always when returning to the Blue Ridge area we plan to stay there on our next trip to Blue Ridge area. The owners are very gracious and concerned for your comfort. Look forward to visiting again.
Very well stocked pet friendly home. The view out the back door was amazing and my daughter loved playing in the creek. Showers and bed were comfortable! We will be back- thanks!
This house was perfect for a getaway that we desperately needed. I don’t think there was a thing we would have needed that was not supplied. It is definitely pet friendly, up to and including leashes, bowls, and a huge bed and with a gigantic yard for running around. We would definitely love to come back in the spring or summer, to put our feet in the creek. The hostess is great and very friendly, and I wish she would come decorate my house as she has decorated this house, because it is truly great!
Great property - PEACEFUL! Warm, VERY pet friendly (great place for dog to run around). Nice kitchen and beautiful quiet bedrooms. I will stay again next time I take the Oyster fly rod class!
We loved staying at Firefly Cottage. The beautiful creek access was fabulous for my fly fishing husband! The property was well equipped for a longer stay, which we hope to reserve soon! Thank you for sharing your home!

Thank you for your review and we hope you come back to visit us. Mel and Richie.
Great house in a great location. House is in great shape and was very clean upon arrival. My family really enjoyed our stay and would no doubt stay there again.
This is our 3rd stay at Firefly Cottage. The location is perfect. Quiet, on a creek and not high in the mountains. It is a quick drive to Blue Ridge and Ellijay. The huge fenced backyard is great for our dogs. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch relaxing and listening to the creek. This weekend was exactly what we needed. We will be back again.

Why they chose this property
We have spent several years traveling the North GA Mountains to find the perfect vacation home. Eventually, we stumbled on Blue Ridge, GA, and well, it was love at first sight. However, we knew his property was too special not to share with others, which is why we are so happy to have you stay at our little cottage on the creek!
