6.6mi from Warrensburg · 1 site10 min to Warrensburg, 10 min to WAFB gates. Firefly Cottage is a nature retreat created for couples/solo travelers who want a peaceful and unique getaway.
Tucked into the Missouri countryside on an old homestead, Firefly feels secluded while still keeping coffee, restaurants, and everyday conveniences about 10 minutes away. Spend your morning bird watching with coffee, your afternoon exploring Knob Noster State Park just 5 minutes away, and your evening soaking in the private hot tub.
🏡🏡The Space
Firefly Cottage is intentionally designed for a maximum of 2 guests.
Inside, you’ll find warm wood walls, a cozy living area, a kitchenette with a Keurig, dual hot plates and a toaster oven, open shelving, an apartment-size refrigerator, and thoughtful details meant to make a short stay feel simple and comfortable.
The primary sleeping area is a king loft with a large window at the foot of the bed, creating a tucked-away, peaceful place to wake up with views of the surrounding nature.
Please read the loft note carefully before booking.
‼️Important Loft Note‼️
The king bed is located in a cozy loft accessed by stairs/ladder-style access. Because the king bed takes up most of the loft footprint, guests should expect to crawl or scoot into bed rather than walk normally around the sleeping area.
This is part of Firefly’s unique charm, but it is not the right fit for everyone.
Firefly is best suited for active adults comfortable with climbing, crouching, and unconventional sleeping spaces. It may not be suitable for guests with mobility limitations, knee or back concerns, balance issues, frequent nighttime bathroom needs, or anyone who prefers a traditional bedroom setup.
A downstairs sofa bed is available as a backup option, but Firefly is designed and listed for 2 guests maximum.
