Need to get away to relax or to finish a project? Or perhaps need some family bonding time? Our quiet creative retreat is away from the hustle and bustle of daily life but close enough that you can get back to town quickly for restaurants or work. This is our family's home away from home nestled in just under five wooded acres and we are happy to share that with you when we aren't there!
Practice piano or guitar, relax on the rocking chair front porch, sun yourself on the back deck, go for a walk in the woods, or just catch up on sleep on our comfy DreamCloud mattresses. Have a tall person or people with you? We understand! The primary bedroom has a California King and none of our beds have footboards to get in your way. All bedding is washed in hot water between guests.
We have high speed internet through Spectrum and two smart TVs (one in the living room and one in the downstairs bedroom) that can access cable and you are welcome to log in to your streaming services. Great for remote work or a comfortable stay on a business trip. Home is stocked with fun games and books and we have a drawing table and easel you are welcome to use. You are also welcome to use our Peloton bike and yoga mat/blocks when here. Need baby stuff? We can help! Check with host on booking. Small crib and high chair are available.
There are two foldable mattresses in the master bedroom closet that you can lay out for extra sleeping space.
Want to cook up some delicious meals? This house has an induction range and convection oven, a small rice cooker, a blender, charcoal grill, basic spices and oils, and quality cookware. There is a Keurig coffee maker available for you to use too. No pets please as we have a family member with allergies. (Check out Green Beagle Lodge in Pittsboro if you need dog boarding)
Note outdoor firepit should only be used when no burn restrictions are in effect (check with host!). Indoor fireplace should not be used at all.

Great house and location for a family gathering. We were there to celebrate our soldier. Convenient to Fort Liberty but also a quiet secluded spot with beautiful views and outdoor space. I was concerned that access to this gated community would be difficult with a variety of guests coming to visit throughout our stay but Nichole was extremely responsive and helpful. We would absolutely stay here again.

Nichole is one of the best hosts I've stayed with. We were the first guests at her newest listing and everything we asked was promptly responded to and suggested supplies were delivered the same day. ... The home was a perfect spot for family to enjoy over the week of Thanksgiving: waterfront in Carolina Lakes, floor to ceiling windows to watch the ducks and swans, and the beautiful sunsets were simply amazing. ... I would definitely stay here again and recommend it for anyone.

This place is a GEM!! Super close to the adorable Bryson City shops, restaurants, train depot, etc. Playground and sports fields/courts are also close as well as hiking and tubing. It was SO CLEAN and the memory foam beds were ultra comfortable. ... Nichole and her team were full of helpful recommendations and offered proactive check-ins throughout our stay. They have thought of nearly every detail to make guests feel cared for and right at home.

The treehouse was amazing! We stayed here on New Year's Eve and we were lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves. It was quiet, peaceful, well stocked with snacks and coffee and kitchen supplies. And the hangout areas were awesome - we built a fire and enjoyed the webbed platform for laying out. Inside, the place was spotless, super secure, comfy, and the bathroom was like a spa! Would definitely come back here again and recommend it to everyone!
