Beautiful house in a great location.

Lovely home in the beautiful Chinquapin community near Cashiers. House is walkable to trails, the Chinquapin Outpost/amenity area, and short drive to restaurants and shops of Sapphire, Cashiers and Highlands. House is comfortable with beautiful porches, comfortable beds and a nice bathtub.

Perfect mountain home for a small family getaway

With its fishing, driving range, hiking trails and pickle ball, our family of 3 adores Chinquapin and visits frequently. We love the charming 'Firefly' cabin because it's walkable to all the activities yet still feels private and serene. It's clean and very well equipped. We hope to visit again soon.

This is a beautiful craftsmans house in a beautiful subdivision. There are nearby pickle ball courts, driving range and dog park. I couldn’t have picked a better spot to enjoy the cool fall mountain air.

Firefly is an idyllic mountain cottage

We love Firefly! It is truly magical and made the perfect destination for our Christmas getaway! We always try to stay in Firefly, or the other property owned by Rich and Amy called 76 Campfire Retreat. They are the best hosts, and their properties are perfectly appointed with the best kitchen supplies and comfortable bedding. Thanks for yet another wonderful stay!
