Great place to get away from it all while being close to the beach!

Great house to kick back and relax in. Worked great for the 7 of us, plenty of room and an open floor plan. Close 2 min drive to the beach too.

Great house

We had a great time on our visit to Edisto Island. The house was nice & clean and met our needs with 6 people. We enjoyed being able to sit out on the front porch in the evening as well. If give the opportunity we would be interested in staying again.

Winter Getaway

I spent a month at Firefly Cottage. Very nice home for my winter getaway! Loved the open floor plan with plenty of room inside and out for dining and relaxing. Beds were comfortable. Nicely stocked kitchen and cooked often throughout my stay. Loved that there are two screened porches. Very quiet neighborhood and everyone we encountered was very friendly! Restaurants and beach accesses are a short drive away - just minutes. This was my first time staying at Edisto Beach and looking forward to returning!

Very comfortable and inviting home.

Our stay was was great! Everything thing was nice about the cottage. Lots of care put into the decorations of the home. We felt at home, not like we were in somebody’s else’s home. There was a spirit of peace in the home. Even having a rough time getting there with a broke down car, we were able to shut that out and enjoy our stay. We will definitely stay there again. Thanks

Great Vacation!

This was our second year at Firefly Cottage. We love the location, amenities, and peacefulness of this cottage. The screened porches are great. Edisto Island is beautiful and offers many opportunities to explore. There are many picturesque places to see if you explore the back roads. You can see the water on a a number of boat tours, Botany Bay Ecotours is great, and finally, relax on a beach. St. Helena Sound beach is calm while the ocean front beaches have waves. We have vacationed here for years and can say Firefly Cottage is as good as it gets.

Feels like home, cozy and adorable!

...you cannot ask for anything better than Firefly! The cottage is adorable and has everything you could possibly need. The home was clean and welcoming from the moment you opened the screened in porch. I broke a wine glass in the dishwasher ☹️ I’m so sorry...I would like to replace but couldn’t find one like it, please let me know. We would love to purchase a cottage like this, it just suits our needs. Looking forward to going back soon! Thank you Cathi!

Lovely Cottage for a rainy stay.

The weather did not cooperate, however cottage was well appointed. Furnishings were clean, upholstery was clean. Doggies liked the golfers and the deer. Beds were nice. Would stay there again.

Cozy cottage. Living room and back porch are best features of the home. Pros: Watching golfers on the 5th fairway of the Plantation Course from the back porch. Golf pro shop is very near the cottage. Cons: Kitchen and both bathrooms are in serious need of upgrades. Refrigerator is vintage as are the two bathrooms. No ice maker in freezer nor were there ice trays. Required us to purchase store ice. Bathrooms need new cabinets, new paingt, and significant quality caulking. Could not watch live TV during 4 day stay. Better pest control needed to mitigate the cockroaches. Regrettably, without these changes we would not rent this property again.

Firefly at Edisto

Our family had a wonderful stay in Firefly Cottage. We found the beds to be comfortable and the photos are accurate to the home. The front porch was great for dropping off sandy items to keep from dragging sand in the home. The back porch was a favorite spot to relax each morning while drinking coffee. The home is on the fifth hole about where the average golfer lands their drive. We enjoyed watching the hunt for golf balls. We had four adults and found the home to have plenty of space for the four of us. We could walk to the Marina but the beach was a little too far carrying beach items. They have a good selection of card games, puzzles, kid books and kid games in the home too.

Edisto Spring Break @ Firefly Cottage

This was a great rental for our family of four. Since it was off-season we got the unit at a great price and let our teenage daughters have their own room but this unit could be comfortable for up to 6 people. The third bedroom is up a spiral set of stairs. So, it wouldn’t be suitable for people that cannot climb steep stairs. We really enjoyed the peacefulness and the large screened in porch on the golf course. Everything is in good working condition, the kitchen is well stocked with newer pots and pans and the bedrooms are good sized. The speedy internet service is appreciated for after sundown movies. When we return to Edisto, we’ll definitely consider this rental unit. The only downside is the ocean side of the beach would be quite a walk. Though the sound facing beach would definitely be walkable.
