Treehouse Luxury at Swallow's Nest | Hot Tub + Fire Pit | Ultimate Getaway
Sleep in the treetops at Swallow's Nest — the first perch at Arbor Domus, a new luxury treehouse retreat in NC's High Country. Cross your private sky bridge to an architect-designed hideaway: king bed against a reclaimed-timber wall, spa bath with soaking tub & rain shower under a skylight, fireplace, full kitchen, and a private hot tub in the canopy. Grandfather Vineyard, Boone & Banner Elk are minutes away. Sleeps 4. This isn't a cabin — it's a treehouse, done right.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and a dining table.
