About this property
The Cedar Treehouse
Summary:
Experience the slow life in this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cozy cabin hidden among the trees of the Smoky Mountains forests! Sip on cocoa by the firepit, curl up on the deck with a good book, explore the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (5 minutes away), or seek thrills at nearby Gatlinburg attractions like Dollywood. This eco-escape encourages rejuvenation with fresh mountain air, birdsong, and a babbling creek. Come home to cozy, rustic interiors, a rainfall shower, and comfortable queen beds.
The Space:
Designed with a rustic cabin feel, The Cedar Treehouse has a home-like layout. 1 queen bed, full bathroom with rainfall shower, living space, and quaint kitchenette are on the main floor. Access the cozy queen bed on the loft via a sturdy wooden 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. Step directly from your deck to the banks of Norton Creek, a premier spot for fly fishing.
Reconnect & relax in the forest. Enjoy the seclusion of your private treehouse with the perks of the exclusive resort - shared firepits, swings, picnic tables and grills available to resort guests.
An Ayres family passion-project that came to life – Built and designed by Pete Nelson from “Treehouse Masters.”
