Treehouse in Chimney Rock

Reopening 6/27-Treehouse Views/Hot tub/Firepit

AshleyRating, 5 stars9 months ago

Chimney Rock Treehouse is an amazing place to stay. The pictures really don't do it justice. The tree house itself is absolutely beautiful and has a gorgeous view of Chimney Rock from the porch. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The place is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need minus you, your clothes, and some food. We both loved the rainfall shower and hot tub. Even though it rained the entire time, it was comfortable and homey enough to stay in and truly enjoyed it. The hosts were very responsive to any questions we had and excellent recommendations for food in the area. We are already planning on coming back in the future! 10/10 highly recommend!!!!

Beautiful area, quiet, peaceful, and inviting to be still. House was very clean and cozy. It felt like we were in the “cottage in the woods”. My sister and I enjoyed our stay. She even said why don’t we see if we could stay a few days longer. Planning on returning.

Lake James Launchpad

Herbert (Mo) + DanielleRating, 5 stars8 months ago

Sarah's place is lovely and quiet, overlooking the golf course and a view of the mountains. The neighbors were delightful, which added to the charm of our stay. The place was comfortable and spacious. Great to have the extra room and bath on the lower level, which makes it even more private. If you're looking for a place in the mountains near a lake, would recommend.

MarcyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Had the pleasure to rent this property for a family extended weekend. The house could not have been more perfect. Great layout, well equipped kitchen, very clean and well appointed. There was easy access to the lake with a wonderful two story dock which provided cover for extended stays down at the water. Very peaceful and quiet location on the lake. A gem.

Modern storybook treehouse with hot tub

LindsayRating, 5 stars3 days ago

The Perch was so cute! Everything was so clean. The intentionality of details- use of the space & where things were placed was amazing. Incredible hospitality too- the hand written welcome note & fresh cookies were a nice personal touch. We had a very nice time relaxing. The porch surrounded by trees was a peaceful surrounding for mealtime. Loved it!
