Very good camp site! Very warm in the winter with the stove and the space heaters. Nice to have access to running water as well as a stove. For those seeking complete privacy, there is a driveway at the top of the hill where you are visible from the campfire area but not from the front porch. Lots of great kitchen amenities provided!

We Loved the Firefly!
With pets
My husband and I had the absolute best time at the Firefly. I can not recommend this campsite enough! The accomodations are fantastic, even though the composting toilet took some getting used to but for those not wanting, there is a normal toilet on the property you can use. The location is secluded enough and beautiful to see all the stars at night but also still close by to stores for any last minute things you might need. The sounds of the creek is beautiful and relaxing the entire time. Jodee was also super quick to reply to me when I had questions and often check up on us to make sure we stayed warm and had what we needed. It was a great way to spend our anniversary with our dogs. I'll be staying here again and you should too!
