The lower level, with a separate entrance, features a cozy queen bedroom next to a gas fireplace, a bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a laundry area. The Lower screened-in deck offers guests plush, luxury seating for afternoon cool naps.

Make your way down to the real wood-burning fire pit for the marshmallow roasting experience!

Awesome venue for couple to get away

Details of place were accurate and place was great. It is a small kitchen so bring some prepped food for convenience. The IS a Weber gas grill (only shows a small charcoal in photos). Highly recommended.

This review would easily have been a 10 with one major exception. I will start with the bad for us which was there were mice in the upstairs bedroom. For some, maybe this is normal for a house in the NC mountains but for us it was unnerving to hear them scattering around at night behind and under the bed. Did not sleep well. There were also several flies upon arrival and no fly swatter. Now the good. The views were stunning. We loved hanging out on the upstairs deck with the fire pit at night and in the morning. So lovely to still be outside enjoying the beauty during the rain. The outdoor furniture was plentiful and comfortable. We also built a fire (lots of firewood provided) and loved being in the hot tub for sunsets. The upstairs king bed was comfortable (lots of pillows!). A few notes. The description does state that the 2nd bedroom is separate but we didn't quite pick that up. Just know that you have to go outside and downstairs to a completely separate entrance. This may be a perfect set-up for some but just wanted to point it out. Some quirky things such as the initial entry is on the backside of the house & not the front doors, the directions mention a thermostat but really it's a heating/cooling unit under the stairs and it took us a while to figure out the instructions for the fireplace. We did not use the kitchen much but never located a dishwasher. In general, the best part was the beautiful location and outdoor living spaces. Host very responsive.

Best spot in Maggie Valley!!

Great view!!!! Great hot tub!! Good location to all the spots you’d want to go in this part of the mountains. Kitchen is a bit tight but that should be expected in a smaller house. The view from the master is awesome to wake up to. Walking outside to the second bedroom takes some getting used to but not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. Will def be back to stay at this property again!!!

The Most Amazing View

The views from all three decks are amazing. Deck furniture is high quality and comfortable. Hot tub was hot and clean. Primary bed is like sleeping on a cloud. Very comfortable. We had to closely inspect kitchen items as some were dirty, dangerous chipped rims on glasses, dead bug in pots, and expired condiments. Nothing we couldn’t solve with provided dish soap. Had some trouble finding the key box on arrival. I wouldn’t recommend arriving for the first time in the dark. Do not recall the listing stating that you have to transport your own garbage 25 min away or leave additional cash money beyond the $165 cleaning fee already paid.

Anniversary Trip

My wife has always wanted to stay in a Treehouse. She absolutely loved the location and uniqueness of this property. Everything was as promised and more with exquisite views. The only thing I would caution some is the stairs going upstairs. They are steep and narrow and carrying luggage up them is not the easiest. I had knee surgery last year and I made it with no problems but I was very careful. Once you are upstairs the view will not disappoint. Thanks again for making this a special Anniversary for my wife and I.

Amazing Location

Very clean and unique property with amazing views! It was supposed to be 2 couples, but ended up just being my husband and I. Things to note: very windy stairs to get to master, the second bedroom is below the main level and you must enter from the outside, there are only 2 seats to dine and 4 in the living room would have been pretty cramped. Great space for a one couple get away.
