About this property

Create fond Smoky Mtn. memories in a boutique home just outside Bryson City, NC

The Treehouse is a privately owned boutique home catering to families wishing to decompress, couples looking for a romantic getaway, and friends in need of a relaxing retreat. The home overlooks beautiful Bryson City, NC, “The Gateway to the Smokies,” and sits atop a hill offering lovely views of the surrounding Great Smoky Mountains. The home is five minutes from the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and is close to biking trails such as Tsali and Fire Mountain. The home is a fifteen-minute drive from Nantahala Gorge, Lake Fontana, and twelve miles from Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort.

The home is well-appointed and welcoming, and we make every effort to ensure our guests have plenty of amenities like fluffy towels, plush robes, an assortment of teas and coffees, a welcome snack basket, and mints by your pillow. Each room is individually decorated and full of character and personality.

You will enjoy complete privacy, a fully equipped kitchen, and floor-to-ceiling windows in each room. The house includes a queen, double, and twin bed. The home has one small bath supplied with bath bombs, shampoos, lotions, and body wash.

Each room includes a Blu-Ray player & access to Netflix & Disney+. There's a great collection of board games, puzzles, books, and movies, along with a Nintendo Switch, controllers, and several games. Regulation-size cornhole boards are provided for play, and there's a large deck with an outdoor fireplace for making smores or enjoying downtime with your family and friends. A charcoal grill is provided including charcoal, lighter cubes, and grilling tools.

If you have motorcycles or kayaks the house has an adjacent carport for your gear.
Want to work out? Our neighbor, Shift Wellness & Performance, offers a $5 per day day-pass; they have a beautiful gym with a splendid view of the Smokies.
Important note: the house sits on a pillar, and you will need to climb steps to get to the front door. The most convenient access is near the carport.
The home is not recommended for those with trailers as the paved driveway is steep with a few sharp curves.

We would love the opportunity to help you create fond memories and celebrate with family and friends. We have one vacation rental, do not use a management service, respond to each guest personally, and focus on attention to detail. We ensure the home is well taken care of, so you feel like you are truly at your home away from home. Be our guest and see what makes our home special.

Welcoming and cozy

We had a wonderful time at the treehouse. The directions received were spot on and we had no issues finding it. The treehouse was thoughtfully stocked with snacks, coffee and tea and charging ports for all your electronics . They have signs posted to make clean up and leaving easy. I didn’t have to search emails to find what we needed to do but the signs don’t take away from the athletics. The view is incredible! I would caution larger vehicles, we have a full size Ram2500 and had to stop and back up going up the hill, no issues.

Treehouse in the woods

The entire house is decorated with unique items and furniture. The hosts provided almost everything you could possibly need for all ages. There is plenty of outdoor activities and room for people to hang out and relax. I let them know we were celebrating 2 birthdays and the host left a bottle of wine and a birthday cake. This was completely unexpected but extremely appreciated.

Cute Cozy Treehouse

The treehouse had plenty of room for our family of five and everything we needed (cooking utensils, blankets, board games, etc.). We enjoyed our stay but cut it a little short because of a potential winter storm (we were worried about the drive home). We are definitely planning a trip back during warmer weather.

Funky home with beautiful views

Fun treehouse to stay at, comfortable, well-equipped kitchen, many floor to ceiling windows with gorgeous views. The owners left us a very nice welcoming basket and wood for an outdoor fire. They even decorated the house for Christmas! Great location, very close to town.

Awesome getaway, yet close enough to the city.

Property was wonderful, tucked up in the woods yet just a short drive to Bryson City. The Treehouse was very nice and welcoming, and had many amenities and was well supplied with necessities and games, etc.

We ventured to Bryson City to experience the Polar Express. The Treehouse was so welcoming with beautiful views and plenty of things to keep my two toddlers busy. We loved the convenient location and would definitely consider staying again if we were in the area!

Wonderful stay for the holidays

We had an amazing time and enjoyed all of the extras left for us! The view is spectacular and we had so much fun going out during the day and watching movies and playing games in the evening. The treehouse was a magical experience for my 8 year old son and it felt like a home away from home for my husband and I. Well definitely be back!

Family getaway

This house was absolutely perfect. From the outside scenery to the panoramic views. When we arrived we were welcomed with snacks and water as well as a welcome note. The kids loved looking for the fairy’s outside and the squirrels inside. The home was cozy and just what we needed for a weekend getaway. Less than 5 minutes from town made it convenient for our polar express ride as well as dinner time. Thank you again for a wonderful weekend

I have never stayed in a cleaner, well stocked house ever. They even had a birthday cake, snacks and wine for our son’s birthday. The hosts Andrew and Warren are great. The views are spectacular.

Escape to the mountains

This was our second stay at the Treehouse. We love the experience of the setting, enjoying the view, sitting outside in the evenings around the firepit and playing cornhole. The welcoming details inside are greatly appreciated. It really is a fun place to escape to and to celebrate a special occasion.

Sweet Treehouse

The home was adorable inside and out, and there was lots of thought put into every detail. Our Grandson loved what he thought was a treasure hunt for the bedside mints:) My favorite part was the wall of windows on the front side of the house with an absolutely spectacular view.

Excellent location and great home

This property is a great location close to downtown but still hidden up in the woods. We had some turkey and deer around the house during our stay. This is a beautiful home very clean and fully stocked with pretty much anything you could’ve possibly forgotten to bring. Easy check in and out the owners have really thought of everything . We will definitely be coming back and will recommend this wonderful home to friends and family.

Treehouse

We loved this property! Well furnished and clean. Lots of extras, such as BBQ grill with supplies to use it, firepit on deck, cornhole boards, games, and well stocked kitchen. We did ask to stay another night and we got an updated invoice that changed our nightly rate, which we agreed to. Than the day after we got back we received an invoice for a "late checkout fee"! I paid it but will not visit this property again.

Everything and more

We chose this location because it was close enough to WCU and we were staying the weekend with our 2 younger kiddos to visit or college kid for his 18th bday. Warren and Andrew remembered that in our correspondence and even had a small cake for him waiting for us!I know it seems silly but when we look for places, we look for a bedroom for each kid and that the rooms have TVs because it makes staying out of their comfort zone a little easier . This place has it all. The outdoor space was perfect for our son and his roommates to come up and hang out for the evening as well. He said, I quote: “amazing birthday” - I consider that a pretty big compliment from an18 yr old boy.

About the host

Hosted by Warren Snyder

Host profile image
My wife and I love the mountains of Western NC and are proud to call Bryson City our home. We believe the Treehouse is a special place and take great care of the home. We think our area is one of the most beautiful spots in the world. We think you will love it too:-)

Why they chose this property

We're located just one mile from the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad and enjoy hearing the train whistle off in the distance. The views from the home are spectacular in the fall and winter and being in the canopy of trees in the summer makes the home truly feel like a tree-house.

We own 14 acres surrounding the home, and you'll enjoy the complete privacy. The deck is perfect for an afternoon snooze in the hammock or an evening of marshmallow roasting in the outdoor fireplace. Or, play a game of cornhole by the deck as you enjoy the mountain views.

What makes this property unique

The home is wholly equipped, and special attention is given to each guest to ensure a memorable and relaxing experience. Each room is warmly decorated and the home includes cozy blankets, plush robes, fluffy towels, extra pillows, an assortment of coffees and teas, wine, beer, and champagne glasses, and all your baking utensils including casserole dishes, large bowls for popcorn, pots, baking dishes, cookie sheets, toaster, full sized Keurig, and blender.

If you or a family member are celebrating a birthday or anniversary, please let us know as we will be glad to help you celebrate this special occasion.

We offer a charcoal grill and include charcoal, fire starter cubes, grilling utensils, and have posted grilling instructions near by to aid in grilling the perfect steak, burger, hotdog, or corn on the cob.

Your washer and dryer are located in the home's basement and we provide dryer sheets, laundry pods, and fabric softener.
