The Nest | NEW Treetop Retreat Waynesville

Debuting for the first time as a vacation rental, The Nest is a modern, artful treetop retreat tucked away in the iconic neighborhood of the beautifully restored Waynesville Inn & Golf Club. You’ll feel worlds away, yet downtown Waynesville’s Rockwellian charm, galleries, and restaurants are just 1.6 miles (or a 5-minute drive) from your door.
Inside, you’ll find a bright, modern space filled with curated art, cozy comfort, and everything you need to unwind. The owners have also created a handcrafted local guidebook packed with personal recommendations—favorite hikes, galleries, and restaurants you won’t find online.
The Nest is strategically situated atop a hill, accessed by a steeper-than-average driveway—your ticket to an unbeatable perspective. While 4WD is a bonus, any confident driver in a front-wheel drive will make it up with no trouble.
Whether you’re here to unwind in the trees, explore the Blue Ridge Parkway or Great Smoky Mountain National Park or soak up the charm of Waynesville and Asheville, The Nest is a cozy landing place you’ll want to return to again and again.
