About this property
The Treehouse
Summary:
Serene & secluded 2-Story home with covered porch, firepit & telescope
The Space:
Experience a truly unforgettable stay at this secluded and private retreat in the woods! The Treehouse is mostly bordered by the Nantahala National Forest - you're not able to see any neighbors, except in the winter when the trees are bare. This is the perfect retreat for families and friends. You will love relaxing in the swing on the covered porch with a steamy cup of coffee in the mornings or a thrilling novel with a glass of wine in the afternoon.
The firepit, another great gathering spot, offers the opportunity to hang out with your loved ones and tell fun or scary stories while listening to the creek below and looking at the mountain view. Inside this darling home, you will find an inviting, beautifully decorated, comfortable open great room with a large window with a view of the mountains. The walls and ceiling are knotty pine and soar 16 feet high for that wonderful lodge feel. There is a large leather sofa and two swivel rockers for relaxing while watching the 55' flatscreen TV with cable. The kitchen is well appointed with all you need to make meals for the whole family, granite countertops, microwave, dishwasher, glass-top stove, convection oven, and antler chandelier.
There is a Keurig coffee maker that will brew a 12 cup pot or individual pods. The kitchen and dining areas are finished off with bar seating and a dining table under another antler chandelier. Also on the first floor is a sleeping porch with a wall of windows looking towards the view with two beds, a large primary bedroom, and a full bathroom. Upstairs you will find a second bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. Things to Know Please note the wood stove in the living room is not available. The TV has Direct Satellite TV. The home now also has a smart TV that guests can log into using their own log in information.

This was a great place to stay. The home had all the amenities and is in a very quiet peaceful location. We loved the beautifully decorated home. We will book this home again.
This house was so well put together!…. actually in person was even better than the online photos, which were great. Plenty of space to spread out with a beautiful screened porch , fire pit area and outdoor deck. The listing was right on point. Looking forward to our next visit, thank you.
Lovely cabin with great view! Cabin was clean and comfortable was a bit disappointed to not have a fire in the wood stove but enjoyed our stay nonetheless.

The house was perfect. Didn’t realize it until we walked in it was almost identical to what we are starting to build on our land. The house was clean and comfortable. Will stay here again.

Peaceful Retreat
My favorite part is taking the stairs to the creek and reading on the stone bench. Idyllic. The kitchen is fully stocked and the porches are amazing places to relax especially with the sound of the wind chime.
Home was quite well stocked with everything you could need in the kitchen including a milk frother. Bathrooms and bedrooms were comfortable. My pup loved all the rooms to explore. It is very quiet where the house is and secluded. There are several decks to enjoy the views. There was a great firepit and gas grill. We would stay here again for sure.

Home Away From Home!
This is my second stay at the Treehouse. My daughters treated me to a long weekend retreat at this home with them on Mothers Day. I fell in love with this comfortable home and decided to plan a mini vacation with my husband. We both enjoyed our stay once again in this lovely home.
One minor issue in the kitchen that was resolved completely to our satisfaction. VERY comfortable house in a VERY quiet,beautiful location amongst the trees.GOOD ground clearance recommended for navigating the uneven and steep gravel driveway (we have a Subaru,no problem.....but a Ford Fusion,for example, would drag bottom). Wish we could've stayed longer!

Very comfortable getaway!
The setup was exactly what we wanted, big enough to fit our family of 4 but cozy enough so we could all hang out while we were in the cabin. Everything in good working order and the kitchen was perfect for what we wanted. Will definitely be back here! Location was also great!
