Mountain Treehouse: A Unique Hilltop Hideaway

Although this one-of-a-kind 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage might make you feel worlds away from the crowds, in reality, it's less than a mile from the lifts at Beech Mountain Resort. Once you've settled into your new home-away-from-home, admire picture-perfect views on the wraparound deck with a side of warm coffee or an evening cocktail. Inside, the wood-burning stove will undoubtedly beckon you to warm up and relax, but don't get too cozy - an abundance of scenic trails sit just minutes away.

Beautiful place to stay
We had a great time at the treehouse! There was more than enough room for my family of 5. We all had so much fun. Beautiful view. The only thing that i could say is. There wasnt enough curtains to cover all the windows. They had a sign that said leave door locked for bears (paraphrasing) and my kids were terrified at night. They were worried about bears looking the windows. LOL but thats how kids are. Also, my 4 year old came to the mountains dying to see Bigfoot. And they had Bigfoots height measured on the wall. My kids were absolutely thrilled over that. We hope to be back soon.

Cozy cabin in the trees
We enjoyed our short stay at this cabin. The highlight was seeing the deer just off the back deck. Good location!

Good place to stay - could be better
My family and I stayed for the long weekend. The property is located in a high elevation so it was quite cool - a welcome change from the summer heat we have been getting. It is a charming little house and our stay was pretty comfortable for 3 of us. We saw a lot of deers and the outlook is quite close - we hiked to it one morning. Keeping the windows open during the evening and night definitely kept everything cool. We loved all the little touches around the house. The steps down to the property could have been better maintained but seem to be safe and sturdy. It is definitely not for anyone who has a mobility issue. The property is part of cluster of similar looking houses built on the side of a hill so you won't get the feel of "out of nowhere" feeling but the view is pretty wide open so it is still relaxing. The main bathroom shower was not very well cleaned when we arrived and a body soap was not empty. We mentioned the need to refill the body soap to the contact person but it was not refilled during our stay - we used the other shower instead for the rest of the stay. We sent a picture of the main shower and got the acknowledgement back. All in all, a good place to stay but I could be better. A little better care outside the property (steps, railings, deck, etc) could make this property even better.

Very comfortable cabin. The owners were responsive and worked with us. Lots of wildlife around despite being in a subdivision. The ski area is 2 blocks away.
