About this property
The Willow Treehouse
Summary:
The ultimate "Work from Anywhere" retreat! Swap your office walls for a "Treehouse Masters" masterpiece. This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom treehouse offers a serene forest backdrop for your calls, just 5 mins from the National Park. Enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi, a quaint kitchenette for coffee breaks, and full Heat/AC. After work, rejuvenate by the babbling creek or the firepit. With rustic-chic interiors and a rainfall shower, it’s the perfect blend of productivity and Smoky Mountain "slow life."
The Space:
Take “work from anywhere” seriously this year & stay where nature meets productivity. Designed with a rustic cabin feel, The Willow Treehouse has a cozy home-like layout: 1 queen bed, full bathroom with rainfall shower, living space, and quaint kitchenette with coffee machine are on the main floor. Access another queen bed on the loft via a sturdy ladder; we recommend the main-floor queen for those with mobility concerns. Both the loft and main floor have heating/air-conditioning. Extra linens, towels, and pillows provided.
A small, covered porch and open-air porch included, both private and filled with outdoor seating options. Take calls among the forests and breaks walking along the babbling creek.
Seclusion + perks of the exclusive resort - shared firepits, grills, swings and picnic tables available to resort guests. Plus, gain access to free and discounted tickets to local attractions!
An Ayres family passion-project that came to life – Built and designed by the “Treehouse Master.”
Guest Access:
Private Entrance with No-Contact Entry via Keycode Provided Before Arrival
The Neighborhood:
This treehouse is settled in the trees within a gated community, Norton Creek Resort, only 15 minutes off Great Smoky Mountains Parkway and 5 minutes from the entrance of The Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Getting Around:
Taxi services, Uber, Lyft (+ DoorDash, Uber Eats) are available. Downtown Gatlinburg offers trolley service. There is ample public parking available for driving around the area.
Other Things to Note:
- We do not allow RVs, campers or trailers on-site
- Please be aware that due to potential freezing temperatures in January and February, there's a risk of frozen water pipes.
- Please take note that bears are in the area. We do provide bear safety tips upon arrival.
- As Of September 22, 2025, Sevier County Fire adjusted their laws so that we are no longer able to have private firepits on the decks of each treehouse, only community firepits steps away from your treehouse.
