The Treehouse Escape to a custom-built, 100% sustainable off-grid treehouse on 23 private wooded acres in Western North Carolina. Perfect for nature lovers, adventure seekers, and those looking for a romantic retreat, this unique stay offers long-range mountain views, an eco-friendly design powered by solar energy, a cozy wood stove, and fresh mountain spring water. Enjoy an exhilarating outdoor shower and a homebiogas toilet with a scenic view. Thoughtfully designed with handcrafted woodwork, a charming kitchenette, copper finishes, and plush organic linens, this treehouse takes glamping to a whole new level of luxury.
Meet the Highland Cows Guests have exclusive access to our adorable Highland cattle herd—Moonshine, Martini, Mojito, & Malibu. These friendly “cocktail cows” love attention, and you’re welcome to pet, brush, and feed them treats.
Winter Glamping Experience From late November to mid-March, the treehouse transitions into a true off-grid glamping retreat. To prevent freezing, the water lines are shut down, but we provide 5-gallon water jugs for drinking, cooking, and cleaning, along with rinse-free bathing wipes. The toilet still functions above 20°F, with a backup port-o-potty available just in case. Heat is provided by a wood stove or a propane heater. Rates are lower in winter to reflect these seasonal changes—if you’re seeking an off-grid adventure, this is it!
Location & Nearby Attractions Located in Canton, NC, near Waynesville and just west of Asheville, the treehouse sits at an elevation of 3,100 feet, rising to 3,700 at the ridge. Explore nearby trails, visit local farms and markets, or dine at charming restaurants. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the easy access to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Pisgah National Forest, and the scenic Pigeon River for tubing and fly fishing. The property itself offers peace, seclusion, and the option to disconnect completely from the world. The only shared areas are the cow barn and trails. We do have a creekfront camping spot on the other end of the property that also hosts guests.
Sustainable & Thoughtful Design We designed the treehouse to be both luxurious and environmentally conscious. Every detail, from the organic bedding and bamboo sheets to the handcrafted furniture made from local and salvaged wood, was chosen with sustainability in mind. The kitchen features a propane cooktop, a beautiful copper sink, and all the essentials for off-grid cooking, including a cooler for food storage.
The Off-Grid Experience While this retreat is beautiful, it’s not for everyone! Expect some wildlife, rustic charm, and an eco-friendly lifestyle. There’s no WiFi, and power is limited to essentials like lighting and phone charging. Hair dryers and other high-energy appliances won’t work here. If you love nature, sustainability, and a peaceful escape, you’ll feel right at home.
Wildlife & Safety Being surrounded by miles of forest means encountering wildlife is possible. Guests have spotted deer, bears, coyotes, bobcats, and more. Be mindful of food storage, use the provided bear-proof trash bin, and make your presence known while exploring. Safety is key, but there’s no need to worry—just be prepared and enjoy the experience!
This treehouse isn’t just a place to stay; it’s an opportunity to experience sustainable, off-grid living in the most magical way. Whether you’re hiking, relaxing, or bonding with the Highland cows, your stay will be one to remember!
