This is a very nice house, especially inside. The owners take good care of it. The views out front and back are amazing. The hosts do a fantastic job communicating. The house was ready to be stayed in when we got there. It's in a very rural area, but "city living" is only about 15 minutes away. We visited the Virginia Safari while we were there. That is a very enjoyable activity, especially if you like animals. Having large animals come right to your car is a lot of fun. Good activity to keep in mind. We very much enjoyed our stay!

We had an amazing stay at this rental! The views were stunning. We were up to watch the sunrise from the back porch every morning! The whole house was updated nicely and super cute considering the price. The host was very quick responding and personable. We ran out of trash bags and he dropped some off within 30 minutes. It's a great place for kids with lots of games, toys, a PS2 and a few outdoor toys. Pink Cadillac Diner was the spot for dinner!

We absolutely loved this property! It doesn’t matter if you walk out front or out back, you have an amazing view. You really don’t have to leave the property if you don’t want to. But if you do, there’s a ton of fun outdoor activities in the area. We will be back!

Effortless saty
Michael was an amazing host, from letting us know before arrival that they had left the windows cracked for us to make sure the house was comfortable in the fall temps for this time of year to the little touches around the house that were thoughtful of situations that may arrive. I definitely recommend The Fire Fly Inn to anyone traveling to the Bueno Vista Area. We will certainly be back if our son decides to attend SVU.

Not handicap friendly
I suggest that at least one of the bathrooms should be handicap accessible. Also the front entrance needs an additional step. It is somewhat difficult for seniors
to step up and down the steps to either gain entrance or to exit the home. A small dining room table should be placed in the kitchen to make it easier for a small family to sit down and enjoy their meals . I strongly advise that the
issues above be rectified so as to bring the property up to codes. Doing so may prevent a lawsuit in the future .

Perfect Location
This home is located within miles of everything we wanted to visit. It is 15 minutes to Lexington where everything you need is located such as restaurants and grocery stores.
The home was very charming and had unexpected views in the front and back. The Hosts were amazing checking in before, during and after our stay. I will definitely recommend this home to anyone that will be planning a trip to Natural Bridge.
