About this property
The Maple Treehouse
Summary:
Let the sound of Norton Creek be the soundtrack to your getaway. Hidden among the trees, this secluded 2-bed, 1-bath sanctuary exudes romance. Wake up in a plush queen bed to forest views, spend your afternoon in Gatlinburg or explore the National Park - just five minutes away - and return to share a glass of wine by the firepit. With its warm wood interiors, spa-inspired rainfall shower, and the gentle rush of the stream below, this is a hidden world designed for reconnection & quality time.
The Space:
Disconnect to reconnect. Designed with a rustic cabin feel, The Willow Treehouse has a cozy home-like layout: 1 queen bed, full bathroom with rainfall shower, living space, and quaint kitchenette are on the main floor. Access another cozy queen on the loft via a sturdy wooden ladder; we recommend the main-floor queen for those with mobility concerns. Both the loft and main floor have heating/air-conditioning. Extra linens, towels, and pillows provided.
A small, covered porch and open-air porch included, both private and filled with outdoor seating options. Step from your deck to the banks of Norton Creek, a premier spot for fly fishing on the resort grounds.
Enjoy the seclusion of your private treehouse with the perks of the exclusive resort - shared firepits, swings, picnic tables and grills available to resort guests.

The place did not disappoint us! The treehouse was beautiful! The sound of the nearby creek was very relaxing. Enjoyed sitting on the deck with the view of nature on the mountain! Chose the best place to celebrate our Anniversary
