Firefly Cottage is a well-established, fully-furnished nightly rental cabin located in Mt. Sherman in the heart of the Upper Buffalo River Wilderness area, less than 3.5 miles to Kyle's Landing & Horseshoe Canyon Ranch. The cabin sits on 11 private acres at the end of a dead-end road, surrounded by pasture with regular visits from horses, cows, deer, black bear and turkey! The spacious Primary Bedroom sits on the main floor with a large bathroom including a soaker tub and separate shower. A sleeping loft outfitted with three twin beds is just upstairs. One of the favorite features of the cabin is the covered wrap-around porch that spans all four sides of the home, including a screened porch at the back that is perfect for dinner al fresco. The outbuilding is in the perfect location to be converted into a bath house and surrounded by rv sites or small cabins for additional income. Beautiful property in the perfect location for a private retreat or keep it as an income producing property!
