BRINGING OUR VISION TO LIFE
OUR STORY
HOW IT STARTED
Our journey began with constructing a charming treehouse for our four children: this playful haven featured bunk beds, a trap door, a swing, and even a zipline. Even then, we would jokingly ponder renting it out once our children had outgrown it. However, when we had the chance to experience a remarkable treehouse rental, these musings evolved into a genuine ambition.
What began as a modest plan to build a few treehouses for rent near our property soon transformed into an ambitious mission: to create the world’s largest treehouse resort nestled in the stunning Smoky Mountains. In the process, we meticulously designed rentals catering to family vacations and intimate romantic getaways.
At Sanctuary Treehouse Resort, our overarching goal is to transport adults back to the carefree days of their childhood treehouse adventures while providing a space where families can come together, play, and coexist harmoniously with the natural beauty surrounding us. Our commitment to preserving the local wildlife and the natural environment is unwavering. To uphold this commitment, our construction plan prioritizes the preservation of as many trees as possible, ensuring that we seamlessly integrate our resort within the pristine natural landscape.
From our initial vision to our steadfast dedication to the resort’s unique goals, Sanctuary Treehouse Resort offers an unrivaled. We have established a high standard for delivering a unique and unparalleled lodging experience.
