Welcome to Firefly Acres Escape to Firefly Acres, where 93 acres of rolling countryside offer breathtaking valley views and the beauty of the Enchanted Mountains by day, followed by incredible star-filled skies at night. If you’re lucky—and patient—you might even catch a few shooting stars lighting up the sky. Our land is home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, raccoons, fox, owls, hawks, hummingbirds, bald eagles, and more. In the summer months, fireflies put on a magical display, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. With well-maintained hiking trails that are also great for mountain biking, there’s plenty to explore for both adventure seekers and those simply looking to wander and unwind. Firefly Acres is the perfect place to disconnect and immerse yourself in nature, while still being conveniently close to restaurants and downtown Olean when needed. Spend your evenings cooking over our rustic fire pits or simply relaxing by the fire, enjoying the warmth and peaceful sounds of the outdoors. It’s a safe, open space for kids to run and families to reconnect, surrounded by the simple beauty of Mother Nature. * Showers are seasonal, with the last day of use on October 15th. You’re welcome to bring your own portable shower and use the shower house for privacy. * The shower system requires access to a cigarette lighter port (vehicle or portable battery) to power the pump. * The property is solar-powered with no electrical hookups, so we recommend bringing flashlights and backup battery packs for charging devices. On low-sun days, solar lighting may be limited. * During rainy or muddy conditions, and in winter, access to the hilltop sites may require 4WD, and even then, it is not guaranteed—especially in early spring. Please plan accordingly. Additional Policies: * Pets are welcome—please clean up after them. * No firearms or explosive devices of any kind are permitted on the property. Whether you’re here for adventure, relaxation, or a little bit of both, Firefly Acres offers a peaceful, scenic escape where you can truly unwind and enjoy the outdoors.

Firefly Acres offers stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere, perfect for stargazing and enjoying nature. The hosts, Fay and Tim, are praised for their friendliness and helpfulness, ensuring guests have a pleasant stay. The campsites are well-maintained, with thoughtful amenities like fire pits, picnic tables, and outdoor showers. However, the site is best suited for 4WD vehicles, as the driveway can be challenging for some cars, especially in wet conditions.

My wife and I had an amazing date night at Firefly Acres. We will definitely return to this property again. The views of the sunset, stars, and the moon were amazing to see during our stay. I would 100% recommend this property to anyone. We met Fay’s Father, Tim when we arrived. He is a very helpful man who kindly showed us around the property and assisted us with firewood and explained the use of the outdoor shower. Thank you for sharing your amazing property with us. We hope to return soon with our daughters. Thanks again, Tim!!

This site hit the sweet spot of having beautiful nature, well-maintained campsites, and a meaningful family-run feel. Fay's instructions were very clear, making it easy to access the site. She was extremely responsive. And, we had the pleasure of speaking with her father: who truly loves and takes pride in maintaining the property. Our dog even had a blast enjoying a pet-friendly property!

We had a wonderful time camping here. The property is amazing, lots to see and do. We loved that it was so quiet and off the beaten path. The hosts are so kind, even graciously helping when I made a mistake with parking our van. I loved that we had water stations at our site in addition to the fire pit, picnic table, and platform. Fay gave lots of recommendations of fun things to do nearby. I highly recommend this spot for camping!

We loved tent camping at Firefly. We had a large sunny campsite called Full Moon, but there are also some beautiful wooded sites. The hosts Tim and Fay were friendly and helpful. The place is very peaceful with beautiful scenery. We enjoyed the views of miles of mountains and valleys. We opted to have Tim deliver us a wagon load of firewood which was nice and dry and plenty for 5-6 fires. The outhouse and shower are nice. Highly recommend this place. I will return.

Met Tim first thing, great guy, he was unloading the three bundles of fire wood we had purchased through them. Which looked to be enough for two nights of a good going fire. Loved the big sky site, we were lucky enough to see some storm clouds roll through and then later a clear sky under a very bright moon. There was little to no bugs, lots of fire flys and birds to see and hear, we had the whole place to ourselves selves. Every site looked well kept and thought out.

Large tent platform site shaded with trees. The ground was a little bit squishy from recent rain, but offered a nice amount of privacy and space. The view is lovely and the ride up the hill to the campground could be tricky if muddy. This is a small operation so it feels quaint and secluded, despite it only being 10 minutes from town. I would stay again.

Cloud 9 was the perfect spot to bring our two kids, ages 8 and 11, for a camping weekend. We were far enough out to see beautiful stars at night overlooking the valley, but close enough to town to run for forgotten items. The outhouse was close to our spot, which is always a plus with kids, and the platform gave us a spot to pitch our tents off the ground. Although not completely private, we couldn't hear much of our neighbors (except for some chatty huskies and a one off visit from a sweet old GSP). Tim was a super friendly camp supervisor and helped grab us a huge bundle of new campwood when we ran out. Plus, the solar fairy light were an adorable and helpful touch. The only negatives were being across the valley from a fishing campground, as some of those campers played loud music at night that echoed across the valley, and the ruts leading up the hill to drive to our site were rough on our low lying vehicle. Otherwise, we had a great time and would love to go back!
