Luxury Treehouse Retreat | Private Trails & Views!

Luxury Treehouse Retreat | 5 Private Acres + Gorges Wake up among the trees on five private mountain acres bordering Gorges State Park. This modern architectural retreat combines the privacy of a secluded mountain home with access to one of Western North Carolina’s most spectacular wilderness areas. Hike from the property toward waterfalls, creeks and swimming holes, then return home to sweeping mountain and forest views, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, heated floors, and spa-like bathrooms with a steam shower and soaking tub. Previously recognized as an Airbnb Guest Favorite with a 4.97 rating from more than 65 reviews, the home is now under new management with the same commitment to an exceptional guest experience. Designed for couples, families and friends traveling together, this three-bedroom, three-bath retreat offers a rare combination of immersive nature, beautiful modern architecture and luxurious comfort. The Space Slide open the dramatic glass wall and the living room becomes part of the mountain landscape. Natural light fills the open-concept living space, with forest and mountain views creating a peaceful backdrop throughout the home. The house was designed to make the surrounding mountains part of the experience—whether you’re drinking coffee among the trees, relaxing after a waterfall hike or gathering around the fire at the end of the day. Highlights • Five private wooded acres with a private trail access leading to Gorges State Park • Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass wall with mountain and forest views • Indoor and outdoor fireplaces • Heated floors for year-round comfort • Spa-style bathrooms with steam shower and soaking tub • Three bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom • Dedicated upstairs workspace with sweeping mountain views • Starlink high-speed WiFi for streaming and remote work • 75-inch Samsung Frame TV for movies and streaming • Sonos speaker • Children’s toys, fun games and puzzles for family-friendly touches • Exceptional privacy with no light pollution for optimal stargazing Chef’s Kitchen The fully equipped kitchen is made for guests who enjoy cooking, gathering and lingering over meals. Many of the everyday essentials are already waiting for you. • Full-size refrigerator, oven, range and dishwasher • Pod coffee maker • Selection of teas • Cooking oils and a selection of spices • Quality cookware and sharp knives • Pottery crocks and serving pieces • Outdoor grill for dining outside Even the water is part of the mountain experience. The home’s private well draws from a pristine mountain spring, providing fresh, naturally delicious drinking water straight from the tap. Skip the cases of bottled water—bring a reusable bottle and fill it before heading out for the day. Sleeping Arrangements Main Level Two spacious queen suites are positioned on opposite ends of the home, offering wonderful privacy and making the layout especially comfortable for two couples traveling together. Upper Level The bunk room features full-size mattresses and its own bathroom, creating a comfortable space for children, teens or additional guests. Outdoor Experience This is a place to experience the mountains rather than simply look at them. Start the morning with coffee among the trees, spend the day hiking, exploring creeks or chasing waterfalls, then come home for dinner from the grill, a fire on the porch and stargazing beneath the dark mountain sky. The wooded setting changes beautifully with the seasons—from lush summer forest and brilliant fall color to long-range winter views. Location Tucked into the mountains of Brevard, bordering Gorges State Park, the home feels wonderfully secluded while keeping many of Western North Carolina’s most memorable destinations within reach. Nearby adventures include: • Living Waters striking, yet easy to walk, waterfall hike including Mill Shoals Falls, French Broad Falls, and Cathedral Falls • Pisgah National Forest • DuPont State Recreational Forest and its waterfalls • Downtown Brevard — approximately 35 minutes away • Tubing down a lazy river - French Broad River from Headwaters Outfitters or Davidson River are both exceptional And you don’t necessarily have to get in the car to begin exploring—the neighborhood trail provides a wonderful way to set out on foot for a lovely 10-15 minute walk to a creek, swimming hole and waterfall in Gorges State Park. Good to Know Cell service in the mountains can be limited, but Starlink high-speed WiFi supports WiFi calling, messaging, streaming and remote work. The home is accessible to most vehicles under normal conditions. AWD or 4WD is recommended during winter weather.
