Perfect little cottage getaway

We loved our stay on the farm in the cottage. The cottage was super cozy, clean, and bright. Well equipped. Hosts were very nice. We loved the farm and thought the animals were hilarious. Great location and very convenient to downtown and to hiking.

Friend Getaway

This property was perfect for our needs. We loved saying hi to the animals, watching the sunset from the top of the hill, and exploring downtown. It was quiet, cozy, and had basic kitchen equipment to assist with meal preparation.

Farm stay

I personally prefer the sounds of the occasional animal to a car or person, so this was just what I was looking for and yet super close to Staunton. Katie was very responsive to a few questions I had and everything went smoothly. The perspective from the top of the property also provides a nice view of VA foothills. I would definitely stay here again.

Quaint rural stay!

This was just a great place to stay on our trip to Virginia! We were here to race Grindstone 100k and this stay offered everything we needed, including the cutest pig and goats to make you smile! The cabin was stocked with anything you would need and in good clean condition.

Lovely farm cottage

Love, love, love the Firefly Cottage! It's cozy, quaint and quiet. Love seeing all the farm animals in the morning while I have my coffee. Katie and her family, who own and live on the property, are great. I have stayed there two times and am definitely planning on returning this summer. Just right for one or two people who are looking to get away to a country setting and truly relax and leave your cares behind in the big city!

Wonderful Stay

This was our first time to come to the Shenandoah area and the Firefly Cottage was a perfect place for us to stay. The cottage was very clean and comfortable and the hosts are great! We enjoyed meeting them and getting to learn about the various animals on their farm. All in all we had a great time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Firefly Cottage to our friends.

FANTASTIC VRBO! Perfect Location, and Awesome Host

Loved the privacy of the stand alone cottage "down on the farm." Was perfect to get around the entire area and see all the sites. Everything was an easy drive, and downtown Staunton was like 5 minutes away for anything you needed from restaurants, Walmart, Historic Downtown with the shops, but you felt like you were in the quiet, peaceful country.Unit was adorable and well appointed with everything we needed, and was cleaned and taken care of well (especially considering how old the place is!)Our host was great! Met with us at check in and gave us the lay of the land and responded quickly to a couple text questions during our stay. We were able to feed some of the animals and loved every minute of our 4 night stay. Slept like babies!Highly Recommend this Property!
