About this property

Stay in a Treehouse Escape at Lake Catherine / Fire Pit + Lake Toys + Privacy

A unique getaway awaits on this private 40-acre treehouse retreat on Lake Catherine, with over 2,000 feet of shoreline, wooded trails, creeks, and plenty of space to explore. Whether you’re looking for adventure or just a quiet place to relax, this property offers both.

Spend your days kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, swimming, or simply enjoying the outdoors. Lake toys are provided March through November. Around the property you’ll find picnic areas, fire pits, hammocks, and quiet spots to sit and take it all in. Wildlife is part of the experience—deer, birds, and even bald eagles are regularly seen.

The treehouse is designed to feel comfortable and relaxing. It includes a king bedroom, plus a loft with a queen bed and two twins. The full bathroom is stocked with towels, soap, and shampoo. The kitchen has everything you need, including a refrigerator with ice maker, microwave, drip coffee maker, griddle, convection toaster oven with air fryer, and hot plates.

Inside, the vaulted ceilings and shiplap walls give the space a light, open feel. The home is fully heated and air-conditioned and includes an all-season fireplace.

Outside, the wraparound deck offers plenty of seating along with a porch swing—perfect for morning coffee or just enjoying the wooded views. A charcoal grill and picnic area are just steps away.

The property itself is full of things to explore, from trails and shoreline to “Big Pine Point,” home to one of the largest pine trees in the state. In season, you can also enjoy wild blackberries, blueberries, and muscadines.

Additional amenities include a boat dock (feel free to bring your boat), life jackets, beach towels, indoor and outdoor games, books, movies, and TVs in both the living area and bedroom. Firewood is also provided.

There is no Wi-Fi at the treehouse. We like to think of it as a chance to unplug and enjoy your surroundings. Cell service is strong, and hotspots work if needed.

Please note:

Children must be 5 years or older due to the open loft and elevated deck
Roads and driveways were updated in November 2025 and are now easier to navigate
Lake levels are lowered each year from November through March 15 due to winter drawdown

The cabin was beautiful, cozy, and thoughtfully designed to make you feel right at home. While the location was close to Hot Springs, it truly felt peacefully remote and removed from the world in the best way. Every detail—the spring water, coffee, games, lake toys and life jackets—made it clear that the hosts truly care about their guests’ experience. It struck the perfect balance between rustic charm and modern comfort. While it wasn’t a major issue for our stay, if there was one downside it would be the lack of ability to do laundry. Overall great place to stay!

The place is so peaceful! A chance to connect with nature, and yet not far from site seeing adventures. Trails, boats, games and the quiet part of the lake was great. Even enjoyed getting a good leg workout on the huge hill to get to the water, although you could also drive if you wanted. The other cabin on the property is nearby and shares access to kayaks, paddle boat and boards but there were so many options it wasn't a concern.Mark and Lisa always replied promptly and are so kind! Loved the treat and water!

The house was immaculate. The Hot Springs water in the fridge was an awesome touch. The heat in the bathroom was so nice on the cold mornings. We loved listening to all the sounds of nature in the morning and at night. Enjoyed the trails, paddleboards and kayaks. It was so great to have that access! The mattresses were comfortable. We wish we knew the brand . Had everything we needed. Would highly recommend!

Our “treehouse” was amazing! Loved the secluded spot. Felt like we were in the woods by ourselves! The property was super clean and had everything we needed! The hosts were great. Super responsive and friendly! Would highly recommend this place for some quiet, family time. Also close to downtown Hot Springs if you want some entertainment outside of the cabin itself!

Great Place for Young Family to stay

If you want a quiet place away from the city this the place for you. The property is very clean with Master bedroom and loft for your family. A small jaunt or car ride down to a fishing/kayaking alcove makes this a great place to visit.
