Lovely Spring break trip

Great to be away from the downtown Pigeon forge and Gatlinburg chaos but not too far either. Easy access to National park, and had we planned our drive better would have liked to stay longer. Youngest loved the play areas, I loved the covered porch (it was raining when we arrived), overall a nice place.

Overall, the property is a nice place to stay and is very close to all the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge amenities. The only downside is there is no bathroom on the 2nd floor where the master bedroom is located. The community has a couple community pools and community amenities.

About the host

Hosted by Mustard Seed Mountain LLC

Host profile image
Several years ago I visited Tennessee for the first time while on a business trip and when I left it felt like I was leaving home. The following summer my family and I visited Gatlinburg and fell in love with the Smoky Mountains. We fell in love with Treehouse Lodge and the story behind it. I am honored to host you at Treehouse Lodge and I hope you will love the handcrafted charm as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

The location of this property is FANTASTIC! Located within the national park, the cabin sits in a bit of a valley and is close to everything the area has to offer, just 8 mins to downtown Gatlinburg, close to tons of hiking trails/outdoor activites and only about 15 mins to Pigeon Forge!

What makes this property unique

Treehouse Lodge has an amazing and inspiring story. The original cabin was lost in the Gatlinburg fires of 2016. The family that lived there at the time completely rebuilt this cabin from the ground up, lovingly adding hand crafted details such as real log steps, hand made cabinets, etc. You can read the full story in the guest book at the cabin.
