The main floor features a queen bed, a living space brightened by plenty of windows, and a full bathroom with a rainfall shower. For additional sleeping, you can access a cozy queen bed in the loft via a sturdy wooden ladder, though we recommend the main-floor queen for those with mobility concerns.

You will find everything you need for dining and prep, from dishware and cutlery to cooking utensils, a cutting board, a can opener, and a wine bottle opener. Outside, you can enjoy a small, covered porch with bug-resistant screen walls or an open-air porch just a few steps down. Both spaces are private and filled with outdoor seating options. From your deck, you can step directly to the banks of Norton Creek, a premier spot for fly fishing. Reconnect and relax in the forest while enjoying the seclusion of your private treehouse alongside the perks of an exclusive resort. Guests have access to shared charcoal firepits (with charcoal and lighter fluid provided), swings, picnic tables, and grills. Access is easy with paved roads leading all the way to the parking lot, located only steps from your door. You are perfectly situated just five minutes from The Great Smoky Mountains National Park and less than five miles from the Parkway. An Ayres family passion-project that came to life – Built and designed by Pete Nelson from “Treehouse Masters.” This treehouse is settled in the trees within a gated community, Norton Creek Resort, only 15 minutes off Great Smoky Mountains Parkway and 5 minutes from the entrance of The Great Smoky Mountains National Park. - We do not allow RVs, campers or trailers on-site - Please be aware that due to potential freezing temperatures in January and February, there's a risk of frozen water pipes. - Please take note that bears are in the area. We do provide bear safety tips upon arrival. - As Of September 22, 2025, Sevier County Fire adjusted their laws so that we are no longer able to have private firepits on the decks of each treehouse, only community firepits steps away from your treehouse.
