The Tree House, Vintage Mountain Retreat

Welcome to Tree House Cottage. This 1940's vintage cottage provides a fusion of historic Appalachian charm with classic lake cottage style. Perched high in the trees on a wooded acre in the beautiful Lake Summit area.

The cottage features a large, open living room, kitchen with a rustic 100 year old poplar tree bar, flanked by logs that reach from floor to ceiling, and a craftsman style stone fireplace.

Two cozy bedrooms each have king size beds and charming decor. The master bedroom has a large private bath with clawfoot tub, pedestal sink and a stack washer-dryer unit. The common bathroom has a custom vanity, copper vessel sink and full-size tub/shower combo. 
 
Enjoy dining on the covered screen porch, or step out and enjoy the impressive outdoor deck. Build a fire in the outdoor fire pit, or enjoy a night under the stars in the private four person hot tub.

Attention to every detail has been taken at the Treehouse Cottage. It is sure to be one of your favorite places to get away.

Excellent stay at the Tree House!

My best friend and I stayed here for a weekend and had an absolutely wonderful time! The property is beautiful and exactly as described. Kirk is responsive and helpful! While we were there, the fire alarm battery needed to be replaced and Kirk responded right away! I would definitely stay here again!

A great weekend away

We had a great weekend at the Treehouse. The kitchen was well appointed and we made a delicious dinner. We enjoyed the hot tub and found all the accommodations comfy and cozy. The location is an easy ride to Hendersonville and local breweries. We would absolutely stay at this cute cabin again!

Great little Tree House

This place met all our needs for a short respite on our way from one part of North Carolina to another. The hot tub was an especially nice feature and the cabin type house is thoughtfully decorated in keeping with the beautiful North Carolina Smokey Mountains

Wonderful Relaxing Getaway

Cozy but roomy with a mountain cottage feel. The property is close to other houses, but well positioned to maintain privacy. We could tell the owner/manager put a lot of thought into the little things you would need. The property is shaded enough that we could enjoy meals on the screened porch even in early summer. The bed was comfy and bathrooms were spacious. You’re just a few mins from Flat Rock and a few more from Hendersonville. There were lots of places to go hike and explore. It’s a wonderful spot and great place to stay. The owner/manager, Kirk, was communicative and available to message or call, but we did not have any need to reach out. We will likely be back!

Perfect cabin for a getaway!

This cabin was perfect for a weekend getaway for much needed relaxation. The kitchen had everything needed to make meals and I especially loved the metal roof during a heavy rainstorm. We will definitely be booking this cabin again!

This dog-friendly house was the perfect place to get away from the noise and relax! We really enjoyed the screened in porch and hot tub. The beds were super comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked with the essentials, and the living area is very cozy.

Beautiful location

Stayed at the Tree House for a weekend and I must say it was just what we needed. It is decorated in a way you feel like you are staying at a friends place- very homey and comfortable. Bed was extremely comfy and just loved the mix of new and original. Hope to stay again!!

Loved staying here. Needed to wind down after the holidays. It was quiet, comfortable and clean. Had everything we needed to cook a few times. We also enjoyed a couple of restaurants in Flat Rock and a short hike at DuPont State Forest. Great place for couples needing a getaway.

Perfect for a Relaxing weekend

The property was exactly as shown- yet somehow even more charming! We've been doing weekend trips together for several years, and this might be the best location (10- 15 minutes from wineries, antique shops, and groceries). The house is clean, cozy, and the chech in/out was simple. Highly recommend.
