The Firefly sits amongst the trees, just a few ft from the noisy creek bank. A nice rock path takes you into the crystal clear water that is stocked September- May. This safari tent has lots of solar lighting, power, a refrigerator, composting toilet that is odorless and clean, and an outdoor hot and cold water shower. Enjoy the outdoor soaking tub by the creek, a charcoal grill, drip coffee maker, and plenty of stacked firewood by the firepit. There is a hard surface road to the property and then a gravel drive. Only three miles to Hillsville for shopping and dining. We allow pets but please clean up their waste. Sit by the creek and let the sound put you to sleep, hike nearby trails, visit The New River Trail for mountain biking and hiking, flea markets, ziplining at Buffalo mountain ziplining, visit local breweries and wineries, and six miles from I-77 and The Blue Ridge Parkway. The winter months are heated with a propane wall heater and a pellet stove. These keep it toasty warm in single digit weather but be aware that if it’s below freezing, the water lines do freeze under the tent, so you may not have running water at times. There is the conventional bathhouse at the top of the hill but it freezes as well in single digit weather. ## Property amenities ### Kitchenette - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Energy-saving switches in guestrooms - Garden - Reusable coffee/tea filters - Solar energy - Water-efficient showers ## Similar properties ![Smart TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96520000/96511400/96511338/48771302.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Serenity now Fancy Gap - Kitchen - Pet friendly - Air conditioning - Parking available 9.4 Exceptional 11 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-07&endDate=2026-01-08&selected=96511338&PinnedHotelID=96511338&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Microwave, coffee/tea maker, toaster, paper towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96780000/96778600/96778596/ca8980bc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Creekside Cabins of Fancy Gap Fancy Gap - Pet friendly - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Microwave 10 Exceptional 42 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-07&endDate=2026-01-08&selected=96778596&PinnedHotelID=96778596&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104510000/104503000/104502992/be79aa3f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Take in Nature @ Whispering Woods, Secluded and Stylish Hillsville - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 9 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-07&endDate=2026-01-08&selected=104502992&PinnedHotelID=104502992&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103850000/103843300/103843298/7deb168d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### New River Hideaway - Walking Distance to Historic Downtown Galax Virginia Galax - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Outdoor Space 10 Exceptional 14 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-07&endDate=2026-01-08&selected=103843298&PinnedHotelID=103843298&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116540000/116538300/116538270/2c245604.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy 1-bedroom house in awesome Lambsburg with WiFi, AC , swimming pool.

The property is spacious with a trout stocked creek at your doorstep! We enjoyed relaxing to the sounds of nature while fishing and reading. Solar lights are a romantic and fun touch at dusk! There's electricity and multiple heat/cooling options. Mini fridge and running water made our trip feel like home. Location is a few minutes from shops and restaurants. I recommend Fancy Gap Country Store for delicious food and ice cream! Thank you, Jodee for answering all our pre-trip questions! We will definitely be back. Maybe we'll bring the kids next time <3 ##### Abbey J. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Susan B.
