1. Play in the sand: Nothing says summer like heading to the beach. Firefly Resort is in the perfect location for beach fun! Many nearby towns have public beaches to choose from but you can also head to Firefly Resort’s private beach, just a few steps away from our cozy cottages.
2. Be active: Whether you go for bird watching or hiking trails, there are plenty of state parks and nature preserves in Harbor Country. For hiking, head to Chikaming Nature Preserve and Park or Warren Woods Forest Preserve. Excellent bird watching (and more!) can be found at Grand Mere State Park and Warren Dunes State Park.
3. Celebrate with the town: There are many festivals in Harbor Country every summer!
4. Book a tee time: Spend a day on the golf greens! Tee off at Briar Leaf Golf Club, Pebblewood Country Club or Whittaker Woods Golf Course.
5. Paddle Away: Whether you prefer canoes or kayaks, Harbor County has you covered with many boat rentals. There’s nothing like spending the afternoon on the water!

I am looking around to possibly rent a cottage this summer for a week in July or early August. I was wondering where I can find your rates and if there is Handi-capped accessibilty to your cottages.
Hi, you can see cottage rates at http://www.fireflyresort.com/cottage_rates.html.
Every cottage has 3 stairs to the front door and 4-5 stairs from the back door. None of the bathrooms are handicap accessible.
