The views from all the outdoor decks were gorgeous. We especially enjoyed the covered porch. The road up to the house is difficult and only 1 car width part of the way. The location was good for drives to see waterfalls, and Franklin and Highlands were near. We had a nice time.

Response from The Treehouse on 30 September 2026
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. We're so glad you enjoyed the stunning views from the decks and that the covered porch became a favorite spot during your stay. It's wonderful to hear that the location worked well for exploring the beautiful waterfalls and nearby towns. We appreciate you noting the narrow road approach, and we want future guests to know that's a fixed feature of the property's mountain setting. We'd love to welcome you back anytime. The VueStay Team

I truly enjoyed my stay here. The cabin was beautiful inside with all the wood everywhere. And the outside porches made it exceptional.

This house was so well put together!…. actually in person was even better than the online photos, which were great. Plenty of space to spread out with a beautiful screened porch , fire pit area and outdoor deck. The listing was right on point. Looking forward to our next visit, thank you.

The house was perfect. Didn’t realize it until we walked in it was almost identical to what we are starting to build on our land. The house was clean and comfortable. Will stay here again.

Perfect name

This house is really like a tree house nestled in a lot of trees. It is comfortable and plenty of room with the porches. We enjoyed our stay.

Peaceful Retreat

My favorite part is taking the stairs to the creek and reading on the stone bench. Idyllic. The kitchen is fully stocked and the porches are amazing places to relax especially with the sound of the wind chime.

Home was quite well stocked with everything you could need in the kitchen including a milk frother. Bathrooms and bedrooms were comfortable. My pup loved all the rooms to explore. It is very quiet where the house is and secluded. There are several decks to enjoy the views. There was a great firepit and gas grill. We would stay here again for sure.

Home Away From Home!

This is my second stay at the Treehouse. My daughters treated me to a long weekend retreat at this home with them on Mothers Day. I fell in love with this comfortable home and decided to plan a mini vacation with my husband. We both enjoyed our stay once again in this lovely home.

Very comfortable getaway!

The setup was exactly what we wanted, big enough to fit our family of 4 but cozy enough so we could all hang out while we were in the cabin. Everything in good working order and the kitchen was perfect for what we wanted. Will definitely be back here! Location was also great!
