About this property

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!

Exceed our expectations!
This lovely cottage is a perfect getaway. Melanie, the owner though of everything to make our stay relaxing. It was so pleasant listening to the creek while sipping wine on the patio. Being just a few minutes from town was a bonus. We would definitely enjoy staying here again

Charming Cottage
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Firefly Cottage. Every possible need was met for us and our rescue dog, Apollo. The location on the creek was so beautiful and the sounds so tranquil. We had a fire in the fire pit every night of our stay and enjoyed a glass of wine or cup of coffee while our dog played in the huge fenced in yard. We had a blast hiking and visiting the local wineries and charming downtown Blue Ridge. We cooked every day and everything we needed was in the kitchen right down to a cheese grater. The location was ideal as there were not a lot of steep winding roads that always make me a little queasy. It was secluded without being remote. We hope to return next winter.

Thanksgiving 2023
My husband, sister and I had a wonderful stay at your beautiful cottage! It was a really perfect & peaceful Thanksgiving for our family. The dogs loved the huge yard and it was very relaxing to sit by the fire pit or on the porch just enjoying the sound of the creek. This was one of the most comfortable places we’ve stayed, well stocked with everything you might need. We would definitely be interested in staying here again on our next visit. Appreciate the communication with our host. Thanks for allowing us to stay at your home and enjoy time with our family.

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!
