Beautiful Sanctuary
An incredible property for the ultimate R&R. The country home is beautiful, comfortable, spacious and lovely. The ground of the property are spectacular, with the natural springs swimming hole as it's crown jewel! We loved every minute of our stay and will absolutely return again and again!

What a find!
We booked the house because it is near a friend’s motocross training facility and it turned out to be an amazing place to spend 3 weeks. The swim hole is the highlight and paddling along Wrights Creek in the canoes. The house is spacious and we were able to have friends stay or come for an afternoon’s swim. Leisa was welcoming and also a great sports injury massage specialist- that was a bonus. Hopefully we will be back next year.

Davis Wedding Weekend
The Firefly was a great place to host our out of town family & friends for our son’s wedding weekend. We loved the home & property. Very private with lots of space for our guests. We hosted a breakfast for the groom & groomsman the day of the wedding. We had everything we needed with the exception of more time to enjoy this little slice of heaven on earth. I hope to return in the future for a more relaxed visit for just some R & R with family & friends.

Elegant paradise
The house is elegant but homey with comfy furniture, tons of different books, some games, and DVDs. I enjoyed the family pictures and different personal touches here and there. House is extremely clean. Outside is awesome with the spring swimming hole and a creek to explore.

Family trip! Second time! :)
Beautiful home, perfect for a family getaway. We had movie night in a cozy family room, played disc golf, had a bonfire with smores. Lovely dinners together in the charming dinning room. Played board games upstairs in the cozy library area. Enjoyed walking by the beautiful pond. Loved the artwork and the antiques. We had a wonderful stay and would love to come back. A great place for a family to stay and enjoy time together! Nearby Dogwood Lakes golf course was great!!

Beautiful “Old Florida” experience
Recently we travelled to Florida to visit family and stayed here to try something different instead of a motel. What a good choice! Plenty of room for 6 of us. The house is spacious and has a lot of charm. The property is extremely private but only a few minutes drive from a small town with the basics - gas, grocery, etc. the highlight for us was the spring fed crystal clear pond in the back yard which then dumps into a creek. It’s small but was a lot of fun for wading and there are a few kayaks there for paddling. In the house downstairs there are 2 large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, LR, den, DR and eat in kitchen. Upstairs there are 2 more bedrooms, bathroom and a large open game room/library. Plenty of books, board games, movies etc. Also outstanding there is a 3 hold frisbee golf course and a campfire area. We had a great time.

Perfect space for my team to stay
This week was wonderful for myself and my team. I had a group of 6 field biologists out doing work in this area and it was so nice for us just to stay in the house together instead of and a hotel. Our host was super communicative and responsive and we felt very welcomed. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about our stay. The quiet, the roominess, the attention to detail was everything we needed to relax after long field days. Being able to cook for each other was fantastic, we were able to wash our work clothes each day, and best of all, we were able to relax outside and look at the moon and stars at night. Everything about out stay was perfect. We WILL be back!
