About this property

Treetop & Waterfront! Quiet Cove, Hot Tub, Kayaks, Game Room and more

Nestled on the slope of Smith Mountain Lake sits Firefly Cottage~ where the sky is lit up with stars and the fireflies dance over the water.

The cottage’s wraparound porch and windows offer beautiful lake and mountain views from nearly every room. The home has an open concept kitchen that allows you to enjoy the company of friends and family while preparing meals. There are multiple dining options including two dinner tables on the main level, a bistro on the porch, a picnic table on the patio and a bistro in the lower level. The cottage is unlike most others in that it has TWO full size kitchens and two docks on the lake.

Upon entry you will find the living room, two cozy bedrooms, a full bath with a beautiful tile shower, a washer and dryer for your convenience and the kitchen area fully stocked. Off of the back porch you will find stairs that lead you to a private, lower level perfect for family and children entertainment.

The lower level has its own private entrance, please note that it is accessible through the outside patio, so you will have to go outside to enter the game room area. It has a full bathroom with a freestanding tub, another full sized kitchen to prepare meals or store drinks, a foosball table, an arcade bowling game, a ping pong table, Wii console, variety of games, a smart tv, and board games. This is the perfect area for additional family members or older children to hang out, but we do not recommend sleeping accommodations for young children in the lower level as it has its own entrances to the outside.

You will have to walk down some steps to access the docks on the lake. The water in the cove is deep and perfect for swimming, kayaking or docking your boat/jet skis. There is plenty of space as we have two private docks for your use.

The home is professionally cleaned and sanitized prior to your arrival. The sheets and comforters on the beds are washed in between guests, as well as towels and blankets. For your convenience, we provide these essentials for your stay;
Bath towels, beach towels, hand soap, dish soap, laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, body wash, wood for fire pit and marshmallow roasting sticks. You will also find some basics in the home such as spices and oils. While we try to keep coffee stocked as well, we can’t guarantee and recommend picking some up before your trip :) We have a regular drip coffee pot.

There is plenty of space for families to spread out in this cottage! Please note that we have smart TVs for streaming services (no cable).

Firefly Cottage is only a 10 minute drive from Food Lion and 15 minutes from Bridgewater Plaza, a hotspot for tourists to enjoy fine dining, arcade, live music, putt putt and other entertainment. Enjoy a boat or kayak ride to Jake’s Place restaurant on the water, or Bridgewater Plaza in just minutes as we are right down the cove from these amenities!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
