🌲 The World’s First and Soon-to-Be Largest Interactive Treehouse Resort
That’s right—we made history! As the world’s first interactive treehouse resort, every one of our treehouses includes built-in adventure: think 20-foot slides, secret ladders, drink chutes, escape hatches, and more.
And we’re not stopping there. By Fall 2025, we will have expanded to 18 uniquely themed treehouses, all built in just two years. This will officially make us the largest treehouse resort in the world, all right here in the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains.

🦅 Nestled in Nature… Minutes from Everything
Located on 40 pristine acres overlooking two championship golf courses and the Little Pigeon River, Sanctuary Treehouse Resort feels completely remote—but it’s just minutes from the best attractions in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Sevierville.
You’ll be close to world-famous spots like Dollywood, The Island, and Downtown Sevierville, while still waking up to the sounds of nature, watching deer stroll by, and catching eagles soaring overhead.
Yes, eagles—two of them in fact! Guests often spot our resident bald eagles, Sir Hatcher II and Lady Independence, perched on the rooftops or gliding through the trees.
✨ Guests from Around the World
In just two short years, we’ve hosted guests from over 30 countries including the UK, Hong Kong, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, and beyond. Families, couples, and adventure-seekers come from all corners of the globe to discover the magic of our treehouses—and leave with unforgettable memories.
Don’t just take our word for it—check out our 5-star reviews on Google (nearly 300 and counting):

🛏️ Locally Owned. Family Built. Authentically Told.
Sanctuary Treehouse Resort is a family-owned and operated business, created by the Jensen family with no outside partners or investors. Brian and Amanda Jensen, along with their children and an incredible local team, have built this dream together from the ground up—literally.
Offered not one, but two TV shows, the Jensens declined both after being asked to dramatize or change their story. Their decision to stay authentic and true to their vision continues to resonate with guests seeking a real and personal connection with the places they stay.
