There’s something undeniably enchanting about Firefly Grove. Maybe it’s the way the pines and hardwoods stand like quiet sentinels around the home, or the fireflies that drift lazily through the dusk like sparks from an old summer memory. Perhaps it’s the lullaby of tree frogs and crickets echoing through the night while you rock gently on the front porch, wrapped in the kind of silence you forgot you needed. At Firefly Grove, time doesn’t race—it meanders. It dances in golden glimmers and fades softly into the tree line, reminding you to slow down, breathe deep, and just be.

Inside, the house is warm and thoughtfully open—a place where laughter isn’t confined to one room and stories are stirred in with the morning coffee. The kitchen, casual and welcoming, invites you to gather at the island—maybe you’ll have a Food Critic, a Wine Lover, and a Campfire Storyteller taking their usual spots, or maybe it’s just the kids with sticky fingers and big grins. Either way, it’s a place to connect, to share, and to linger.

Upstairs, you’ll find rest and recharge in three bedrooms: a serene king suite with its own bath, a peaceful queen guest room, and a bunk room that promises giggles, whispered secrets, and the kind of sleepovers you wish you could still have. A shared full bath makes mornings a breeze, and a sleeper sofa downstairs keeps things flexible for your crew. There’s also a half bath on the main floor—perfect for quick freshen-ups before heading into town or catching a concert under the stars at Riverfront Park.

Firefly Grove isn’t in the thick of things, and that’s the beauty of it. Just 10 miles south of downtown South Haven, you’re close enough to the energy, but far enough to hear the hum of the earth instead of car traffic. A ten-minute stroll brings you to Pilgrim Haven Natural Area—where accessible trails lead to a Lake Michigan beach kissed by wildflowers in spring, sea glass in the morning, and sunsets worth writing home about. And when snow falls, those trails become pathways for snowshoes and soft adventure.

Don’t forget to check the garage—there’s a kayak waiting for a calm morning paddle. Or maybe you’ll fill your basket with blueberries at nearby DeGrandchamps Farms and return to the screened-in back porch to share your finds, tell the day’s tales, and sip something chilled as twilight falls and the fireflies rise.

You’re also just minutes from some of the area’s favorite spots—The Lodge on Blue Star Highway for casual dining under the pines, or Tello and Taste downtown for a romantic night out. And if treasure-hunting calls to you, Deerlick Creek Park is the quiet place locals whisper about for finding Petoskey stones and sea glass alike.

Firefly Grove is that rare kind of escape that doesn’t just offer a getaway—it offers a rhythm. A chance to experience life in firefly-time: slower, sweeter, and full of glow. Let it be your home base as you make memories by the handful, one light-filled night at a time.
