Dogs Welcome, Dogs Happy
From the spot-on theming, to the bidet potty with the heated seat, to taking care of Allie, our pup, with her own slide-out QUEEN bed to her favorite pastime, the slide, and then the view from all vantage points.
Our family of 4 (dad, mom, and twin 9yo girls) and our 2 pups had so much fun at the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort!
This place is amazing, my whole family enjoyed it, including the dog. I would highly recommend staying here.

Hiking the Smokies With a Dog
Most trails in Great Smoky Mountains National Park are closed to dogs. Two are not: the Gatlinburg Trail and the Oconaluftee River Trail both welcome dogs on a leash. Dogs are also allowed in park campgrounds, picnic areas and along roads, on a leash no longer than 6 feet. Closer to home, our 1-mile scavenger hunt trail through 40 wooded acres is pet friendly too.
Treehouse Fun for Everyone
Slides, swings, secret ladders and drink chutes keep the humans busy while your dog settles in on the deck.
Features vary by treehouse design.
A Pet-Friendly Scavenger Hunt
Grab the map, compasses and flashlights from your treehouse and follow the 1-mile trail through 40 wooded acres to the treasure chest. Plan on 45 to 60 minutes. It is a real hike, hills included. The trail is pet friendly, so bring your dog along on a leash.
