    Having a home on the water was awesome, we rented a raft for the week, your dock made that very convenient! spent the day cruising and relaxing on the sandbar! In the evening fishing the lily pads! We have been coming to Lewiston for years, having a home to stay in makes it special. Thank you!

    Wonderful vacation!!

    We stayed at Firefly Cottage for eight days, July 2025. It was absolutely fantastic!! The house is very roomy. It was very clean! The kitchen was huge and honestly, was better equipped than my own kitchen at home!! Great location. Communication with host was unbelievable!! We had a couple of issues…one was my grandson locking us out…and the host replied immediately, and had someone there within minutes to “rescue” us. I would strongly recommend this wonderful home!

    Great Stay AGAIN

    This is our second time back at this property and it was just as great as it was the first time. We love the location and the quiet environment on the lake. It was very pleasant to have a bonfire and relax. We will continue to recommend this property to our friends and family and hope to return next summer.

    Cute cottage!

    Cute cottage with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. We brought our pontoon and were had a great space to dock it. Weather wasn’t all that cooperative but still enjoyed our stay. Were able to hit all of the great restaurants in the area, including Talleys, Lewiston Lodge and the Redwood. Never disappoints.

    Perfect family getaway

    The house was exactly what we needed for a week away! Great size, fun lake decor, appliances/kitchen items, plenty of space to spread out. The yard was perfect. Nice fire pit, chairs, table, grill, dock, sandy beach!! The lake was great for swimming, boating, fishing. We would definitely stay here again! The host was great! I did have trouble receiving some of my VRBO messages..but not her fault! She was quick to return my phone call.
