We had an amazing time at the Tim’s place. Everything is well thought out, clean, private, and quiet. The ac in the yurt was excellent as it was pretty humid due to some rain in the evening during our stay. Free dry firewood, and an awesome fire pit with a grilling made dinner and breakfast cooking a breeze.

Weekend Trip to The Firefly Nest

It was a very lovely property! Very private. There was a bit of highway noise but nothing that stopped our sleep. We didn’t get to do the full trail, since it was a bit messy from the weather-nobody’s fault on that! If you’re more adventurous and have good boots maybe you could do it after a huge week of rain. The mattresses were good, and we slept fine but they are definitely more camping and less glamping mattresses. The bathroom was very nice and clean. If you have an aversion to the taste of well water, be sure to bring your own. And be careful, the hot water is EXTREMELY hot. We would definitely stay again if we’re in the area.

Weekend Trip to The Firefly Nest

My mother and I spent her 79th birthday “glamping” in the Firefly Nest, which turned out to be only 10 minutes from our house in town. It ended up being unseasonably cold with rain showers, so it was a real treat to roll in and have everything ready for us - no tent to pitch, and the firewood already split and under a roof. The rain cleared by supper time and we enjoyed the birdsong, the deer we spotted, and the rustling of leaves in this beautiful patch of woods… and the flush toilet, actual beds, and heater/fridge/lights were also quite welcome. I’ll be recommending Tim’s place for out-of-town visitors who prefer an alternative to hotels, since it’s both closer to my house and offers more privacy than any of the Fort Wayne or New Haven hotels/motels. Thanks for a delightful stay.

This was a first for both of us...winter camping...and mother nature gave us quite the run for the money with temps dropping from 69 when I arrived to 12 degrees by morning with thunderstrorms and 50-60 mile winds. Jeremy was so gracious and helpful...perservering thru 3 dying generators and making sure I was safe and warm. I'm looking forward to seeing the place next summer when it's all green and with weather that allows exploring! Lol.
