About this property

Holly Forest Treehouse - Dogs Welcome!

  • This property is not only pet-friendly, it's PETS ENCOURAGED! This renovated treehouse is a 2 bed/2bath that boasts an additional Dog Suite, so your furry family members have a space all their own! There is an outdoor dog bath (including shampoo & towels) as well as a large fenced-in Dog Play Area. And NO PET FEES! (3 dogs max, unless approved in advance by owner).

    For our human guests, the property is on a very private wooded lot and includes an outdoor fire pit, hammock, and outdoor deck. There is also a wood burning fireplace in the great room. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, king size bed, and Smart TV. The secondary bedroom has a queen size bed. There is an extra twin bed (upper bunk) in the Dog Suite if needed (the lower bunk is reserved for dogs only). There is also a small office space, should you need to check in with work while visiting the area. Unlike many other mountain locations, this treehouse offers a strong cell signal and wifi.

    The property is easily accessible from Hwy 64, and is approximately 7 minutes from the Sapphire Valley Resort. Guests of the property are eligible to purchase an amenity card for the Sapphire Valley Resort. The amenity card provides the user access to the private lake, fitness center, arcade, mini-golf, horse shoe pit, basketball court, track, and dog park. (For more info about the amenities and seasonal events check out www.sapphirevalleyresort.com)

    Narrows Falls is located within the community and is a 15 minute walk from the property. 60 minutes to Asheville Airport, 25 minutes to Highlands, 15 minutes to Gorges State Park, 35 minutes to Brevard & Pisgah National Forest, and 60-75 minutes to Cherokee & Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

    NOTE: Although the driveway is paved and has ample parking, it is mildly steep and may not be appropriate for low riding vehicles. Additionally, there are 12-15 stair steps from the parking area to the treehouse, so if you have mobility issues, this may not be an appropriate property for you.

Wonderful

We spent a week at the property and it is a great place to stay. The house is in a great location and clean and plenty of room and everything was just as it says on Vrbo . This was our second time staying there and plan to book this property on our next trip there.

Great place!

Our stay was great! Jodi was quickly responsive on communicating with her! Her place was very nice and in a great location. Family enjoyed the skiing at the resort, hikes, and driving to nice waterfalls near by. Definitely thinking about booking this place again late this year again!

Great Location, Pet Friendly

The home was located near everything my family and I wanted to visit. The home had everything there we needed. Internet was great, the dog yard and dog room was also a nice bonus. Would recommend to anyone looking for family adventures in the National Forests and Parks to stay here.

Wedding weekend stay

We (and our dogs) had a blast! They loved exploring the woods and waterfalls (and having their own dog room) and we loved the convenience of the cabin to the wedding hotels/downtown. It was great to sit on the porch in the mornings with coffee and watch the world go by. We will definitely be back!

This was the perfect mountain getaway!

The house was absolutely beautiful with anything and everything we needed! The host had a book with everything the area had to offer from hiking trails restaurant recommendations. The deck outside was perfect for morning coffee and enjoying time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I would highly recommend this house for anyone!

Much needed break

Great property. Our dog child loved having more blankets and toys to play with and the long porch was his fav! The fences in area along with the neighborhood walks were wonderful for all of us. It was clean, neat and had everything we needed!!

The house was exactly as described on VRBO! The outdoor area was perfect for our fur baby — he loved the trail and the screened-in deck. The “dog house” was adorable, and he spent lots of time there. Inside, everything was neat, cozy, and well stocked with everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable, too! The location was great — we enjoyed exploring Cashiers and Sapphire for shopping and dining. Excellent communication with Jodi. We highly recommend "The Holly Forest Treehouse" to anyone looking for a relaxing mountain getaway!

Wonderful house & location. Owner thought of everything!

My husband and I with our 2 westies spent 4 nights here for my birthday. We couldn't have asked for better accommodations. So many small touches (games, dog toys, tea & coffee, charging cords) throughout the house. We enjoyed use of both the fire pit outdoors and the inside fireplace. We loved walking to the falls. We will be back.

Fantastic accommodation

What a delightful and well named destination. The views really did make us feel like we were up in the trees. Upon entering I was struck with how spotless everything was and the welcoming flowers were a nice touch. We enjoyed the games, puzzles, and conveniences for cooking. Jodi’s thoughtfulness is apparent in every aspect of the supplies and equipment. A great place for dogs and humans alike!

Relaxing Fall Break

Our family of 3 humans and 1 yorkie loved our time at the Holly Forest Treehouse. The house was comfortable and a good size for us. The owner had thought of everything for our pup. We appreciated the recommendations for dog-friendly restaurants in Cashiers. We like the Sapphire Valley amenities too, and enjoyed kayaking, mini golf, the pool, and arcade, as well as hiking.

Tucked Away Treehouse

We had a wonderful weekend stay at Jodi's tree house. It's the perfect home for your furbabies. She has thought of everyrjing to make sure your dogs have everything they may need. We didn't use the extra doggie bedroom however it is a great addition to this house. Your spoiled pets will love it here.

Dog Heaven

Our dog sitter had knee replaced so we were traveling with our two fur babies (I prefer leaving them at home). This will be the only place I will consider if I encounter this situation again. The dog house was fantastic as well as the fenced in area. The house itself was beautiful and the best stocked kitchen I have ever encountered in a rental unit. Nicely secluded but an easy drive to restaurants and grocerys. Needs more than five stars
