Our stay at Sanctuary Treehouse in Tennessee was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, Amanda’s warm hospitality made us feel right at home. We stayed in the Tarzan and Jane treehouses, which were thoughtfully designed and provided a unique and comfortable experience for our family. The children had an incredible time exploring and enjoying the treehouses—they were so captivated, they didn’t want to leave! Sanctuary Treehouse offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, making it an ideal choice for a memorable getaway. We highly recommend it to anyone seeking a serene and unforgettable retreat.

A great alternative to a hotel. Kept my three children entertained in-between events we had planned. The kids won't stop talking about the treehouse they stayed in. The attention to detail and adult humor were great. The treehouse provided so many little things that we didn't need to bring such as the crib for the baby and night light that projected on the ceiling for the children. The outdoor areas had everything you could think of and was very relaxing. The location is absolutely perfect. Everything we planned to do and anything we needed was no more than 15 minutes away. We are looking forward to making this an annual trip.

We had a fantastic time at the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort! Our treehouse was really clean and very comfortable. We have never slept better on the amazing beds. The mountain view was incredible, there was even a bald eagle nesting in a tree nearby! When we had questions or needed assistance the owners responded immediately. There was something for everyone in our group, swings, trap doors, fireplaces, and nature! We will definitely stay here again!

We had the BEST stay at the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort! It was such a great stay and our boys loved how interactive everything was! Great location to the Smoky Mountain Nation Park. Can’t wait to see when the resort is all completed! 10/10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had the most beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing vacation in the sanctuary treehouse resort! The rooms are so thoughtfully and uniquely designed, the decor was an experience in and of itself! We really enjoyed the beautiful outdoor spaces, the fireplace and outdoor daybed added so much! Our room had luxurious touches that made us feel pampered, such as the towel warmer and smart toilet. the resort is located in a perfect area, close by to many popular attractions, saving us a lot of driving time. I found the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort’s website very helpful when planning our itinerary, and we enjoyed the discounts to attractions in the area. I definitely hope to be back!

Staying in Morning Wood, Treehouse 58 was GREAT!!! We had an awesome time, even as adults!! I love how the resort is set up. Our treehouse was so much fun!! I did everything!! Lol... The swings, the slide, the secret ladder and escape hatch, and I had all my drinks sent down the drink chute!! The bed was so comfortable, the shower was so relaxing, the fireplaces added that special touch, and let me tell you, I fell in love with the heated toilet seat!! Who knew I needed that in my life!!! 🔥🚽🧻❤️😄 Another thing I enjoyed was the Perk Card!! So many restaurant and activity suggestions, discounts, and even some freebies!! We loved it all and tried many of the businesses. Overall, this was an AMAZING experience and I highly recommend it. The owners are super nice and make sure you have a wonderful stay!! We’re definitely coming back again!! 🌳🏠🌄❤️

We arrived at "Squirrels Gone Wild" on my oldest daughters 6th birthday. The attention to detail on the theme is incredible! This is no ordinary treehouse experience! The kids love it, and it's a sweet reminder for adults to feel like a kid again. A luxurious outdoor experience and memories that will last a lifetime! ♥️

Shawna Burger - 2024/08/13 -

Beautiful, clean and comfortable!

Julee Ward - 2024/08/13 -

Let me first start off by saying that I was truly impressed with the Treehouse Resort! Me and my 17-year-old came for a little getaway, and we really had a great time! The Treehouse has so many little trinkets and personal touches that are so unique! They have everything you need that a traditional hotel/resort may have. They really did think of everything! It is close to anything you want to do. Shopping, attractions, food, and don't forget about the Smoky Mountains! I cannot wait to be able to come back and stay in a different treehouse and explore more of the area! Book now and you won't be disappointed! Amanda and her husband are extremely welcoming and accommodating to your needs. 11/10 experience!

Kate Hoppensteadt - 2024/08/12 -

The treehouse was so fun! The whole family had a great time.

Tracy Fleming - 2024/08/12 -

Absolutely amazing! We will definitely be back.

Dante Gibby - 2024/08/11 -

WOW!!! What an incredible experience from my first contact with Amanda as she helped me plan the perfect weekend getaway. My wife has always talked about building a treehouse so this was the best thing I could have done for her birthday. When we arrived, there were rose petals adorning the room along with champagne, a charcuterie platter and chocolates along with a vase of red roses. My wife was overwhelmed and I am so glad I booked this weekend with Sanctuary Treehouse Resort. It’s not just the outstanding service provided but the treehouse was amazingly appointed as we stayed in #58 and it resembled being in the top of a beautiful tree. If you’re looking for a new adventure, I highly suggest you book your stay here. We love it here and plan on many more visits.

Alex Lazowick - 2024/08/10 -

Just amazing!

Ryan Somsky - 2024/08/09 -

We had such an amazing time here. You would be crazy to go anywhere else in the area with kids. All the positives of an AirBnB type house with the amenities and feel of a hotel.

Tyras Madren - 2024/08/09 -

Very unique accommodations and a special experience. The treehouses really are as amazing they look in the photos. So many surprises and details to discover throughout your stay...both fun and functional. They really put a lot of thought into the design. We were here three nights and would have liked to double the length of our stay.

Caleb Stair - 2024/08/07 -

This was an awesome experience....Experience is what you get here! Not only that but also luxuries! A really cool place and we will definitely be going back. Loved the deck side fireplace! Loved the slide and all the cool gadgets inside. The heated toilet seat was a first for us....that was cool! Five Star...oh and thanks for the extra Birthday gift for my buddy. That was a great gift...I mean usually resort gifts are pretty cheap but that was some nice stuff!

Chase Hively - 2024/08/04 -

Truly a top-notch experience. Such a unique, fun, and luxurious place to stay. We felt like we were on Swiss Family Robinson adventure, but with all the amenities and luxuries of a modern hotel. We were blown away by the attention to detail that this family-owned business put into every aspect of your stay. They truly thought of everything. It was just plain fun to stay here and explore all the fun features of the treehouse. It was an awesome experience we will never forget.

Krista Duhaime - 2024/07/30 -

We just left this morning and I feel like we are all so sad. We got a notice that we could book a gap day at a discount and we already have another accommodation booked but I was tempted to pay for both just to get to stay longer ❤️ I don't even know where to start. The theming was so thoughtful and really made the ambiance of the place that much better. My kids (3 and 7) were in absolute heaven - the trap door, the bunk beds, the can shoot, bucket pulley, slide, rope swing and the swing chairs below deck - all such hits and so amazing to see their joy as they experienced it all. I wish you all sold tshirts - we want to promote the heck out of this place back home in Michigan! The place was also SPOTLESS and so comfortable! We can't wait to see the plans for growth come to fruition in the next years - we will be back - I had to promise the kids ❤️. Thank you for your part in making our family trip so memorable!!

Megan Zielinski - 2024/07/30 -

We absolutely loved our stay! Very close and convenient to Soaky Mountain, and the kids loved the slide and outdoor area. Super neat features like the drink chute. We will definitely be back!!

Karen White - 2024/07/29 -

Can't imagine a better located, better outfitted way to enjoy this location with kids. Ideal!

Joanna Miller - 2024/07/29 -

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sanctuary Treehouses! It was the perfect vacation stay for me to take my grandchildren. They had a blast and played until bedtime every night. I have already recommended you to many family and friends. We will definitely be back again.

Jaylan Irwin - 2024/07/28 -

My family & I stayed at Tarzan & Jane. It was absolutely AMAZING! We loved every minute of it. The treehouses were beautiful and we noticed every small detail that the owner put into the treehouses. They truly made a memorable experience. We HIGHLY recommend!!

D Clark - 2024/07/23 -

Great place,enjoyed the stay .hope to be back next year

Phil Brame - 2024/07/22 -

Excellent place to stay. Minimal distance from downtown Sevierville but you feel like you’re very much removed from traffic. Treehouse we stayed in was perfect and staff was super helpful.

Chad Keefer - 2024/07/18 -

This place is amazing! Kids loved it. The people that run it are awesome!

Karen Brindle - 2024/07/17 -

Amazing treehouse experience for our daughter with many fun & unexpected features. She is in heaven with the playthings; we are enamored with the beautiful attention to detail decor, gorgeous town & fireworks views over the trees, comfy beds, and easy access to everything we want to do. A+++ rating; why stay in a boring hotel when you can have this amazing, woodland experience?

Ashley Wilkerson - 2024/07/17 -

We just stayed at chasing fireflies and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this place. My boys said it was the best place we’ve ever stayed and the attention to detail is unmatched. Can’t wait to go back and see how the resort grows. Great place for a family adventure.

Jerry Moen - 2024/07/17 -

My wife and I spent six nights In unit 56 The Tree T Ment Center unit at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort. I started to write a review as soon as we got home and thought I should calm down and see if I still thought as highly of the place a month later as I did when we got home. The architecture of the place enamored me all week long and we enjoyed the comforts and amenities every day. The big soaking bathtub, the easy to use outdoor fireplace, the amazing views from the outdoor seating bar, and of course the bed all made for a great week. The bed was comfortable and unique, and gave us all the rest and the romance we were looking for. It was a way to avoid the crowds of Gatlinburg, and yet still be in the vicinity of the National Park, Pigeon Forge, and Sevierville. Sanctuary Treehouse provides great discounts to dozens of attractions in the area and the manager was in regular contact with us before our trip, helping us to make the most of our time while there. She even did some research for us and we are very grateful to her. We celebrated a birthday and our anniversary, and we wanted to create some memories. Being in a unique Treehouse setting sets these memories apart from the run of the mill hotels that we so often find ourselves in while traveling. After a month of reflection, I have concluded that my first impressions were correct and this is a great place to stay. I would trade the money for the memories any day!

Angie Catron - 2024/07/06 -

My husband, our puppers and I stayed 3 nights in Squirrels Gone Wild and loved every minute of our time there! The theme was hilarious, we loved it!! This was by far the most relaxing trip to the Smokies we have ever had! The treehouse was so inviting and we took full advantage of it. We spent so much time on the bottom deck in the swings just chilling. It was so quiet and peaceful. The bed was so comfy and the linens were superb! We loved the pebble floor shower and the whiskey barrel vanity! I have no doubt we will return!

Sean Eastman - 2024/07/06 -

Beautiful luxurious treehouse! Super clean! Loved everything about are accommodation! Only suggestion is needs a full size mirror, just not sure where you could put it. 5 stars!

Terry Hill - 2024/07/02 -

Thoroughly impressed. We stayed in Among the Wildflowers and were amazed at at how inviting and beautifully it was decorated. The stars shining on ceiling was a nice touch as we arrived around dusk. Even though it was hot during our visit we spent most of our time on the below deck swinging and watching TV while the boys played on the slide. Wonderful place, definitely will return!

Katy Koontz - 2024/07/01 -

We loved our stay here! The treehouses are cleverly designed with all sorts of fun features. I loved that there was a wood-burning fireplace on the upper deck--something I have not often found in this area. The trap door, drink shoot, and slide were all the kinds of things kids would long remember, and we loved the star projector at night. The rainfall shower was great--I loved the pebbled floor, and the water pressure and temperature were good. We appreciated the microwave and mini-fridge, as well as the complementary water bottles in the fridge. We would definitely come back!

Colby McLemore - 2024/07/01 -

Haven't been to such a fun place since my childhood. Love all the crazy amenities.

Trent Heard - 2024/06/30 -

Sanctuary Treehouse Resort was such a nice change of pace from the traditional hotel style of travel lodging. The kids absolutely loved it; in fact, this is the first trip I can ever remember my kids asking to go back to the room early rather than staying out doing things in town. It is very secluded & quiet which makes for a very peaceful stay. Although the space is small (it IS a treehouse), I was very pleased with the excellent use of space by the design team. Even for a group of 4, it didn't feel cramped at all and we easily could've fit another on the pull out bed without even sacrificing space. There are too many features to list, but a few of the noteworthy ones are the wood burning fireplace and gas grill on the very spacious outdoor deck (several outdoor seats as well), the lower deck beneath the treehouse was quote nice with its many swings for sitting, flat screen TV, dimmable string lights, and a drink chute from the kitchenette above. I can't wait to see the future developments at this resort as it is still in its earlier stages and I understand there is much more to come as they build out their wooden hill top property. Great job Sanctuary Treehouse Resort, this one is a hit!

Ziemowit Mazur - 2024/06/30 -

Unique and wonderful experience for our family. The treehouse is full experiences that everyone will love and full of surprises. Customer service was excellent. We can’t wait to go back and make more memories, highly recommended!!

Alana Seay - 2024/06/28 -

We stayed in the tree-T-ment center treehouse for 2 nights and we had an amazing experience! The room has a ton of space and all of the features are very high end (including a towel warmer!). The decor was perfect, it completely set the tone for a peaceful and relaxing weekend. The view of our tree house was incredible, overlooking the city and golf course. The downstairs of the treehouse was so cute, it had a huge bed swing, an outdoor tub and curtains for privacy. Would highly recommend a stay in one of these incredible treehouses!

Lisa Prisco - 2024/06/26 -

We arrived with two 9 year old boys, they were thrilled with the treehouse and entertained themselves, with all the novelties for the 4 days we were there. They were never bored. The place was clean, decorated beautifully and was welcoming. It was an experience worth traveling for. Marie, the office manager helped us to book our reservation and then assisted us when we had questions about our room.

April Legge - 2024/06/25 -

My family loved our stay a the Treehouse! They really did think of everything to the most of the space. We loved the swings and could sit in them for hours watching tv and enjoying the peaceful outside.

Alexandra Lollis - 2024/06/24 -

The perfect mix of nature and modern convenience! The treehouse was really thoughtfully designed and we loved all the special touches and fun perks. It was luxurious and fun at the same time - a place both the adults and kids loved. Despite the compact size, there were a variety of spaces to relax. The lighting and plug situation was fantastic. We will absolutely be back, and will enthusiastically recommend it to friends. We can’t wait to see the expansion in the future.

Dee Coletta - 2024/06/22 -

Amazing experience. We have traveled all over the country and by far this is the best. Highly recommend. We are staying in Morning Wood. Breathtaking views and very elegant furnishings. No expense was spared. Will definitely return.

Lindsay Estes - 2024/06/19 -

We had a blast at the treehouses! My kids had so much fun with the swings, slides, drink chute, and rope. The treehouse was nicely appointed with everything we needed. The decor was hysterical and it was so much fun to read all the signs - what a sense of humor. We were close enough to the national park and gatlinburg without being in the crowded area. We would definitely recommend to other families!

Heidi Francis - 2024/06/19 -

We had a "honey" of a time at our treehouse! It is a cute concept. The treehouse was clean, well appointed and offered many fun amenities like the drink chute and porch bed.

Lori Higgins - 2024/06/17 -

What a great place ! We loved everything about it. The thought that was put into every detail of this resort is amazing. The room was gorgeous. Cozy, comfy and welcoming. I would highly recommend this resort to everyone. The communication was amazing, response time was quick and we loved the sense of humor that the owners have ! We hope to be back soon

Hubert Clanton - 2024/06/17 -

The name of this place says it all.

Jeannie Cutts - 2024/06/06 -

We went for a few days to see the synchronistic fireflies in the Great Smokeys National Park and chose to stay here with our two grandsons (10 and 12 years old). We loved everything about this place. It's very well equipped, comfortable and the locations was great. We will be recommending it to friends for sure.

Madison Carroll - 2024/06/03 -

We had a great time in our tree house we stayed at the resort the entire weekend and felt so relaxed after the trip. 10/10 recommend this place its so beautiful! TREE-Tment center is the one we stayed in!

M Thompson - 2024/05/27 -

Husband and I had an amazing time! Stayed at "Morning Wood" treehouse. Loved the theme and decorations, everything was very well thought out. Minutes from attractions but felt secluded. We will be back with the whole crew next time:)

Molly W. Kramer - 2024/05/22 -

We stayed at the tree-T-ment treehouse with our baby and toddler. The accommodations were great and catered to both children and adults. We hope to return!

glenda musgrove - 2024/04/29 -

A great find in the Smokies! April 2024, my husband and I reserved the 19th Hole Tree House at Sanctuary in Sevierville TN and we were not disappointed. As a matter of fact we liked it so much that we extended our stay from 3 nights to 5 nights. We have been coming to the Smokies for over 30 years and have stayed in Chalets, cabins, hotels, etc., and I can truthfully say this is the most comfortable we have ever been with our accommodations. One reason is that the tree houses are still pretty new and they keep them very clean. I never saw one bug inside... and that means a lot to me! The only thing that could be a negative (but wasn't for us because we ate out the entire time), but just to let others know, the kitchenette has a microwave and a larger than most mini fridge (which was large enough for everything we needed, plus left over plates from restaurants), but no cooktop or oven if you plan to cook on vacation. Our time flew and we did so much that even if I had planned on cooking, I would not have had time. The Treehouses consist of one very nice large room with everything from the bathroom, main bed, bunks and kitchenette situated all along the walls. I am still amazed at the concept and how well it works! We never felt cramped and everything you need is incorporated very nicely into the space. The center of the floor is wide open to the large back deck with a fireplace and tables and chairs. The Treehouse is just a great space! Other than the cleanliness which is most important to me, each of the tree houses are just so adorable! Each one is very unique and decorated beautifully. My favorite experience was sitting on the deck at night with my husband, enjoying the view of the city lights and mountains, while sitting in front of the beautiful fireplace (firewood and starter provided) roasting marshmallows for S'mores. Amanda (one of the owners) was kind enough to show us several tree houses while we were there, as we plan to return again in the future, but next time we're bringing our children and grandchildren! We think the "Tarzan and Jane" tree house will work great for that visit, and we know our grandchildren will absolutely love it. The attention to detail and comfort in each of the tree houses is second to none. The amenities provided are many and were very much appreciated. You can tell the owners love what they do and love people. They truly go above and beyond. They always seem to be doing something special for their guests that I can promise you other resorts do not. Don't miss any opportunity you have to grab one of these unique tree houses the next time you're planning a trip to the Smokies. You'll be glad you chose the Sanctuary!

M Cain - 2024/04/24 -

This place is like nothing I've ever seen! Be ready to have fun and relax! Don't plan too much to do bc you won't want to leave!!

daniep55 - 2024/04/24 -

We had a wonderful time! We used everything we could. We took our 8lb maltipoo with us and she loved it too. The views were of a golf course across the way and the mountains in the back. I felt like it was close enough to go anywhere you wanted in the area. We loved making fires on the deck. The swinging bed underneath was absolutely wonderful. It truly felt like a tree house with luxurious amenities.

Jean Ryckman - 2024/04/23 -

The Tree-T-Ment Center. So how do I love thee? Let me count the ways…. Ah, but there are so many!! 😍 Every little detail was accomplished plus more. 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. The icing on the cake was the owners, the Jensens. What a kind and personable family. They even provided a playmate for Allie. Jolene. 🐶 ❤️ What a “Tree-T”!! We will be back!! And probably will bring the entire family. Unless we need some more alone time. After all, it is our year to celebrate 50 years of marriage. 🥂

Joe Shea - 2024/04/18 -

My husband and I spent three wonderfully relaxing days at the Sanctuary Treehouse - our Honey Pot treehouse was perfect - treehouse charm with comfort and high tech amenities! If you are visiting the Smoky Mountains - this is certainly the place to complete your get away !

Carmen Y Nunez - 2024/04/14 -

I was astonished by the treehouse, wow, wow the details from the decor we stood in the”Squirrel gone wild” all the details throughout. We went there to celebrate our son 10th birthday. There favorite part was going the slide, we had a cookout . Thank you for making it so kid friendly we enjoyed our stay . We are thrilled to say , that we will be back and tryout the other treehouse . I highly recommend Sanctuary treehouse resort , the owner is so attentive, she even stop by to said hello. Indeed, it was excellent experience with the service providers! Offering 5-star service is a great way to ensure customer satisfaction.

Zach King - 2024/04/04 -

We had a great experience and our Treehouse was amazing! Such a great adventure for the kids and moments away from all of the wonderful attractions in the area. Cant wait to do it again!

Christian Borne - 2024/04/02 -

My family and I visited The Sanctuary for Spring Break. We stayed in the Chasing Fireflies house. Our stay was absolutely incredible. This experience was so unique and perfect that we did not want to leave. The room was supremely cleaned and so cozy. Our children loved the slide and porch swings. We had plenty of room and so many amenities. Not to mention how beautiful everything was. The attention to detail was superb. Also, the staff was so kind and helpful. When we were leaving I wanted a cup like the ones provided to use in the room. My husband called the office and they let us buy one. The lady working that day brought a new one to our room and a sweet gift for our boys. The owners were doing a meet and greet but it rained us out and we unfortunately had to miss it the next night because we were checked out. But, we are already looking at booking our stay for Summer. If you stay at Chasing Fireflies, just be careful when backing out (especially in large vehicles) as it is a super tight fit.

Becky A - 2024/04/01 -

Amazing experience for kids and adults. We will definitely consider staying here again if we are in the area. I would recommend this to anyone!

Kristin Dodds - 2024/03/30 -

We feel so blessed to have found Sanctuary Treehouse Resort for our first vacation to the Smoky Mountains! We appreciated it being off the beaten path but close enough to all of the popular attractions that we didn't spend a lot of time getting places. The treehouse itself had so many fun amenities, our kids were asking each day when we were at attractions "when can we go back to the treehouse"! The adults appreciated the peacefulness and relaxing atmosphere as well as the ease of check-in and check-out and the awesome service before and during our stay! We will definitely be back!

Tiffany McNabb - 2024/03/30 -

We never leave reviews but this little getaway definitely deserves a 5-star review! The treehouse was so perfect for our little family (2 adults, 2 kids) and had a great view! The treehouse was super clean and the decor was adorable! We cannot wait to come back!

Sara Mann - 2024/03/30 -

We had a great time here. Nice home base as we went out on adventures during the day. Very clean and cozy. Had a fire outside on the deck every night. Such a cool experience.

Neal Bhatnagar - 2024/03/29 -

We stayed at The Honey Hole the week of March 25th. We were excited to switch things up and stay in a Treehouse instead of a hotel! We were not disappointed. The Treehouses are beautiful, clean and fun. You get all of the perks of a standalone unit while still being within a community of others. The room was clean, well decorated and very comfortable. The unit has an area where you can relax on the ground floor and watch tv and a balcony on the top floor where you can take in the views and build a fire (in the fireplace). There is also a communal area for larger bonfires and cooking out! The resort is close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg as well. We drove into those two areas every day without any issues. Finally, we were celebrating our son's 10th birthday and the staff made sure he felt special by leaving him with a little gift (thank you!). We would highly recommend staying at the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort!

Cindy Brushaber - 2024/03/28 -

The staff was very friendly at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort. Loved the location of the resort. Hidden and peaceful off the beaten path but not to far from all the fun activities and restaurants. The tree house was very clean and full of fun details. My husband and I had a great experience and will be coming back!

Scott Ficks - 2024/03/28 -

We chose Sanctuary Treehouse for a 50th birthday trip with 3 buddies. I can't say enough good things about this resort and its owners, Brian and Amanda. From the moment we arrived they took such great care of us and ensure our time with them would go smoothly. The treehouses have a high end feel while remaining cozy and peaceful. One of the best parts is that the treehouses are far enough away from the tourist traps in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg that you always have a peaceful place to return to at the end of the day. If you are looking for peace and quiet, a great place to have a cup of coffee and sit by the fire, this is the place to be. We had the 19th Hole treehouse that overlooks the golf course and mountains and I can't imagine a better spot. This is a must stay in my opinion and we will be returning ASAP.

Tommy Wilhelm - 2024/03/20 -

This was a first class accommodation and we can’t wait to stay again. They furnish everything you need to have a comfortable and luxurious vacation. Service availability was some of the very best we have ever had. They even recognized me for my 60th birthday and went way beyond! Thank you for providing the great and unusual place to stay. Our 9 year old granddaughter loved it but not anymore than we did.

Alissa Peelman - 2024/03/18 -

Staying at the sanctuary treehouse resort was a dream come true! It was MAGICAL! My husband and I needed a weekend to just relax and unwind, and this trip did exactly that! Everything was a 10/10! If you’re considering reserving a treehouse, do not think twice!

Dionne Fields - 2024/03/15 -

The most breathtaking Treehouse Resort on this planet.

Tony Roberts - 2024/02/29 -

It was such a wonderful experience and everything was perfect. The Jensen family are incredible hosts with an equally incredible vision. The treehouse was beyond anything we could’ve imagined. It was roomy, comfortable and fun. It was a treat for our entire family and we hated to leave. From the view to the little details and thought put into the decoration of the treehouse, it exceeded our expectations. Give them a visit and let your inner child relive old memories of your youth.

Thomas Rees - 2024/02/27 -

We had a wonderful time everything was first class. Can't wait to go back again

Meg Smith - 2024/02/26 -

We have stayed in so many cabins I have lost count, we are well traveled and own an Airbnb ourselves, I say all this to say - this treehouse was one of the most amazing stays we have ever had!!! They thought of just about everything, seriously! I not only can’t wait to go back, I can’t wait to bring several of our closest friends and family with us!!! Can’t say enough great things about this treehouse!

Dede Till - 2024/02/19 -

This whole experience was great! They literally thought of everything and designed the treehouses accordingly! We laughingly referred to our unit as luxury in a bundle! Above and beyond our expectations and surprises to explore at every turn.

Alycia Smith (Alycia) - 2024/02/19 -

We had a wonderful stay in the squirrels gone wild treehouse. We had our 2 dogs with us. They were not sure about all of those things hanging around and looking at them the 1st night, but they got used to them. We loved being able to sit on the porch with the little fire place every evening. I would definitely stay again.

Tina-Marie K - 2024/02/18 -

We went in Dec 2023 and loved it. We stayed in the Honey Hole. The treehouse was incredible. Would have loved more isolation from the other units but they did everything they could to try and give you the privacy. We would definitely go back!!!

Heather Jensen - 2024/02/18 -

We were gifted this experience by our office staff for Christmas, so we went into it with little to no expectations. WOW!! What a great experience. All the finishing touches were phenomenal. Got to meet the owner, who was super nice and helpful. The kids are mad we didn’t take them, so we will definitely be back. My only regret is we couldn’t stay longer.

Life with Grey - 2024/02/17 -

Family had an amazing time and we will definitely be back again.

Amy Wenham - 2024/02/17 -

The honey hole was a beautiful comfortable room! Included s’mores with an easy to fire up fireplace on the back patio was a fun surprise. Thank you!

tony brown - 2024/02/15 -

Great place to stay . Very unique.

Kimberly Minton - 2024/02/14 -

These cute little treehouses are perfect for a quick getaway. The treehouse has many features that make it fun and relaxing. The outdoor area is perfect for hanging out with friends and family and watching a movie or the big game. If you want to try something new and different, I highly recommend trying it out.

Barry Bray - 2024/02/13 -

PERFECTLY APPOINTED TO MEET ANYONE'S STANDARDS OF SATISFACTION.

Heather Winslow - 2024/02/05 -

We have stayed in many hotels around the Pigeon Forge area and the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort is the best by far! The kids had a blast on the slides, swings and just hanging out in the treehouse! I would highly recommend this place for anyone. We will definitely be back!

Cari B - 2024/01/17 -

Brian and his family thought of everything! My fiancé and I stayed at the Honey Hole treehouse. The decor, layout, comfort, views…spectacular! When temperatures dropped to single digits, Brian delivered a ceramic heater during the evening to assure we stayed warm enough. He did this on his own just to make sure we were comfortable. Marie was also amazing to communicate with, and checked on us during our stay to make sure we were warm and safe. We definitely picked the coldest and snowiest time to visit, but could not have been happier with our stay. I hope to come back and stay again, perhaps during milder temperatures, so we can experience the true nature of the treehouses! Thank you Brian and Marie for being so kind and accommodating!

Angela Cullop - 2024/01/15 -

This was the perfect retreat! We will definitely visit again!

Desiree Silvey - 2024/01/15 -

We just returned home from a weekend trip! We stayed in Chasing Fireflies and had the best time! I cannot say enough positive things about our experience from the first interactions while booking to the end of our stay. The treehouse was perfect! It was clean and the details were quite impressive. Our children enjoyed the many interactive features and we had to pry them off the slide when it was time to check out. We will definitely be returning very soon to stay! Thank you for an experience we will remember.

Madi McGill - 2024/01/12 -

Such a fun place! We stayed for 2 nights for a little birthday staycation & couldn’t have enjoyed it more. The owners put so much detail into this place - so many thoughtful & purposeful touches in the treehouse both inside & out. It was chilly outside & our favorite thing was the outdoor wood burning fireplace! Looking forward to our next visit!

kristina parker - 2024/01/12 -

We loved our stay at the Treehouse sanctuary. They thought of every detail to make the treehouse a glamourus unique experience. Our kids loved the slide and swings. We also enjoyed the heated toilet seat. We loved the outdoor fireplace on the patio as well. The service was also top notch and my husband loved that he was able to speak to a real person when booking and ask them questions.

Amber Ogle - 2024/01/11 -

My family & I got to spend the weekend in Treemendous Fun & it was a blast!!! Between the slides, swings, bunk beds & roasting marshmallows my girls had the time of their lives. The heated toilet seats was a BIG hit for my boyfriend. Very family oriented & that’s a great quality!

Don B - 2024/01/09 -

My wife and i had a wonderful stay at 'Chasing Fireflies'. So many fun and whimsical features everywhere you looked - like staying in your own personal Swiss Family Robinson treehouse! Comfortable, high-quality, and fun - so different from a hotel room experience in the best way. Easy drive to all local sites.

marie jackson - 2024/01/07 -

We celebrated my daughter's birthday in Air Fort One and it was absolutely amazing. The treehouse was one of the cleanest places I have ever seen in the Smokies. The treehouse felt homey and provided the perfect place to sit around the fire on the deck, grill burgers and spend time with family. 10 out of 10 would recommend. The beds were comfortable, the pillows were fluffy, and the heated toilet seat was great on these cold winter nights.

chris roser - 2024/01/07 -

This wasn’t just a place to stay, but an experience to enjoy.

PROTECHRITY Professional Staffing - 2024/01/06 -

This very creative, super fun & whimsical resort was truly a breath of fresh air. We surprised our 2 (impossible-to-please) teenagers, and we all adored it so much. We cannot wait to visit again! I read all about it before we came, but it still left us in awe. Adventurous, quirky, fun, while somehow luxurious…the best kind of resort in my humble opinion. Believe me, you won’t want to leave your treehouse! (But there’s also a lot to do in the area, so force yourselves:) lol

Alex Sanabria - 2024/01/02 -

By Far the best place to stay at if you want cleanliness, great staff, and to feel as welcome as possible. Looking forward to coming back as soon as i can.

Farrah Le - 2024/01/02 -

Our stay was nothing short of amazing. From the booking to the check out everything was seamless. The treehouse itself is a masterpiece. Very well thought out with all the bells and whistles. You can definitely tell it was put together with close attention to detail and love. Felt like home away from home, like you truly belong. Needless to say, I didn't want to leave!

Larry DeWitte - 2024/01/01 -

Wonderful accommodations! An incredible amount of time, ingenuity, and detail went into the development of this very unique resort! Fun, relaxing, amazing place to stay!

Shannice Mabandla - 2024/01/01 -

The treehouses are very cozy and comfortable to stay in. There are so many hidden gems for everyone of all ages to enjoy. From heated toilet seats to drink chutes, this place really brings out your inner child. I will definitely stay here again!

Prince M - 2024/01/01 -

We really loved staying here! The bed was nice and cozy, the views were overlooking a golf course, the decor was unique and you could telll they paid a lot of attention to detail! we are definitely planning on staying here again and inviting our friends and family to experience it!

jasmari fontanez - 2023/12/30 -

The Sanctuary Treehouse Resort is a beautiful and impressive place. Once you open the door you are quickly awed. It also comes with perks. By using Explorie, offered through the resort, we received free and discounted admission to some attractions. The personal touch, of leaving a stocking with our child’s name and gifts under the tree, was very nice. They even called days before our visit to obtain the name. I would definitely recommend it for families with small children or single couples.

Sharon Hall - 2023/12/30 -

Tree-Mendous was the most adorable, clean and fun place to stay for our vacation to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg. It was sooo nice! The features made it fun for my kids! I wish we had more time so we could have had a few days to just "stay put" and enjoy! The owner was super friendly and helpful when I called to book, as well. Upon arrival, my children were greeted with a Christmas tree, personalized stockings and gifts wrapped under the tree from the owners. We can't wait to come back!

Raleigh Murch - 2023/12/23 -

We were in the area for a brief stay in the Smokey Mountains, and we're lucky enough to find an availability in one of the luxury treehouses. From the moment we arrived at the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort, we knew our stay in the Tarzan treehouse would be nothing short of magical. Nestled over top the lush greenery, our treehouse was a haven of tranquility and adventure. As it was the holiday season, we discovered delightful surprises left for us under the tree - local handcrafted gifts that added a personal touch to our experience and made for an awesome welcome. Our son had a lot of fun climbing and sliding among all the attached play features as the first evening presented us with an awe inspiring sunset, a view we enjoyed from the comfort of our treehouse balcony. Waking up to the sunrise was a spectacle of its own, the highlight was witnessing a majestic eagle perched on a nearby branch, a moment that felt like it was straight out of a nature documentary.The treehouse itself was a marvel of craftsmanship, blending rustic charm with modern comforts, making our stay both exciting and comfortable. The attention to detail in the design made us feel like we were truly living in Tarzan's world, but with all the luxuries of modern living. We must extend our heartfelt thanks to Amanda and Brian, whose warm hospitality and attentiveness made our stay even more special. They went above and beyond to ensure our experience was unforgettable, always available to assist us with anything we needed. Our stay in the Tarzan treehouse at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort was an experience we will cherish forever. It was the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and luxury, set against the backdrop of the beautiful Smoky Mountains. We can't wait to return!

Beth Reynolds - 2023/12/19 -

I can't say enough wonderful things about staying at Sanctuarty Treehous Resort. Every little detail was so well thought out - from the outdoor fireplace to the towel warmer. We even saw a pair of bald eagles while sitting by the outdoor fireplace on the deck. We will definitley be back.

Mike S - 2023/12/06 -

Wonderful decor and details of the treehouse. Extremely cozy place to relax and stay. Location was great with access to Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and great restaurants. Highly recommend.

lauren mitchell - 2023/11/29 -

Our extended family of 8 loved the “Tarzan and Jane” treehouses. Our son-in-law’s favorite was the heated toilet seat! The fireplace on the deck made it so warm and cozy-thank you for the unlimited firewood! The Christmas tree and decorations made it feel festive and warm. Thank you for a fun, family vacation and we will be back!

David Westfall - 2023/11/25 -

I suspect all of us have dreamed of living in the Swiss Family Robinson's treehouse - or at least visiting it. Maybe you have visited it at Disney? The good news is that you can experience your own treehouse now, and the owners have done all of the work. Leave you tools at home and enjoy the whimsical world created for you at Sanctuary. The design features made what seemed at first to be a small "house" into a magically functional space for us all - two grandparents, two teens, and a 5 and a 6 year old. The slide, trap door and ladder, "drink dispenser/megaphone", rope swing, hanging chairs - and so much more - kept the young ones delighted constantly.. Although the cold, wet weather for most of our stay could have been a negative, the amazing treehouse made it all worthwhile. The children are already asking when we can go back (when it's a little warmer 😀)

Pamela Wood - 2023/11/22 -

My kids love it.

Laura Penn - 2023/11/13 -

This place is absolutely phenomenal. 10 stars, if possible! Every detail was considered, and our stay was incredibly fun, easy, and a blast for our children. A friend and I took our children - four kids, ages 6, 5, 4, 4, and they had nonstop fun. We will absolutely be back and hope to bring a bigger group this time!

Michael Wang - 2023/11/13 -

This place is awesome. The bed is super comfy, fire place on the deck is awesome. They really thought about all the little details to make this place great.

Linda McNealy - 2023/10/23 -

We stayed two nights in Chasing Fireflies (#49) October 19-21, 2023. Everything was fabulous. We enjoyed the quiet and serenity of sitting on the porch and watching the wood fire one evening. Amanda even sent us a beautiful gift to help us celebrate our anniversary. This place is perfect.

Julie Compton - 2023/10/23 -

My husband and I came back and brought our 3 boys with us this time as their Christmas gift! We stayed in "Squirrels Gone Wild," and they absolutely loved everything about it. We even got the surprise of snow! They keep saying they miss the treehouse and want to know when we can go back. You won't be disappointed!

Laura H - 2023/10/14 -

Beautifully done. The details were exceptional.

Sheila Allen - 2023/10/08 -

The treehouse experience was awesome! Everything was clean, beautifully decorated and organized! A great place to relax and enjoy serenity. Visit them soon!!

sierra hunter - 2023/10/07 -

We stayed at the Sanctuary Treehouse in July and we FELL IN LOVE!! These are the most unique and interactive treehouses we’ve stayed in to date!!! We arrived late at night but were still able to check in smoothly. The owners gave us a code for the doors, so we felt safe! We stayed in the Firefly treehouse which is actually their first one ever built! So we were right across from the community area they have. When we walked in we were immediately met with stunning details! The colors, the textures, the little interactive touches like binoculars, fold up bunk beds into a table, additional hidden bed, slides, water shoots, tire swings, climbing ropes…. I mean I could literally go on! It was amazing. We slept comfortably! We traveled as five (my husband and I and our three kids). The hidden bed was used for our youngest and the older two slept in the bunk beds. They thought it was so cool to climb up on a wall into the beds! My husband and I slept like babies in the main bed. Luxurious sheets and blankets…it was hard to get up on the morning. I also loved the shower details, made you feel like you were showering outside on stones underneath a waterfall. They also provide really soft towels, wand wash clothes , and two robes. There is also a curtain to close off the shower/bathroom /luggage area for a little privacy if needed. The treehouse comes with a coffee maker and their signature K cups- a cinnamon flavor which was delicious! They also have snacks and some water bottles which was great to walk into from a few hour road trip! There are also cleaning supplies, bowls/mugs/trash bags so you won’t really need to bring much. There is also a little grill on the deck in the back if you want to cook burgers and such. Ice is provided at the community circle which you can fill up with. Too many amenities to list through, but there’s more! Great get away with your family if you’re looking for something unique. You don’t need to leave the resort but if you do, Soaky Mountain is around the corner (4 minute drive), Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, and Gaitlinburg activities are also super close with just a 20-30 minute drive down the road. Thanks so much to the owners for this beautiful stay! We are counting down until we return! They are building many more and we’re excited to see all the updates!

Grace Danuck - 2023/09/20 -

Super fun and different way to stay overnight Lots of special amenities! Great for kids...escape hatch with ladder....big slide from top floor to bottom. Bed that folds up to be a table. Heated toilet seat! Outdoor easy fireplace on top outdoor porch/floor. Adult and child swings on bottom level. TV/Roku inside top floor...and also downstairs/outdoor level. Super clean. Two Nice robes. Full kitchen with simple snacks and keurig coffee. Sweet gift of s'mores fixings for the fireplace. We really enjoyed the 2night stay ... as an adult couple. Would be even better with kids

Karen Petty - 2023/09/16 -

What a great place for Adults and Kiddos. Visited with 2 of my best friends to celebrate a birthday. The birthday girl had already been there with her family and stayed in the Tarzan and Jane treehouses. We stayed in Chasing Fireflies. This resort is so unique and well thought out. You can tell the owners have put their creative touches on every little detail. We had a blast celebrating and having quiet time to get caught up and to enjoy the sites. I highly recommend you visiting and see for yourself. Great place for Girls weekend or for Family get togethers. Amanda and Brian and their family are sweetest folks you will ever want to meet. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Sam Henry - 2023/09/15 -

We had an awesome time! Very nice and unique surroundings. Definitely a great stop on an adventure!

Lisa DHilly - 2023/09/15 -

This is my second stay at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort and I am already planning to go back again soon!!! My first stay was in the Tarzan and Jane double treehouse with my daughter, son in law and three grandsons. It was the perfect destination for our family vacation and lots of memories made. This week I came back with my two best friends for a birthday celebration! We stayed in the Chasing Fireflies Treehouse. The attention to detail and engineering extra’s ( a drink chute, a 20 foot slide, the bunk-bed turn bar top for additional eating space and heated toilet seat) were enjoyed by us (adults) as much as they were with my grandsons! The outdoor space (downstairs) was the perfect place to swing, catch up, eat meals, celebrate a birthday and relax. The outdoor area upstairs was great to walk out and drink our morning coffee and and enjoy the wooded view while we planned our day out. The thought and heart that have gone into creating each individual Treehouse is unmatched by any other resort I have visited. The Jensen family’s vision and masterplan for Sanctuary Treehouse Resort is truly unique, and a place for families, friends and couples to make memories for generations to come.

Carla Coffey - 2023/09/15 -

We had an amazing time at the fireflies treehouse! So many interactive features, decor was beyond perfect and the hosts are so welcoming! Our Grandson loved the slide and escape hatch and sitting by fire 🔥 roasting marshmallows. The discount cards for surrounding attractions were a great touch! Can’t say enough great things about this treehouse resort, we will definitely be back!

Angela Jones - 2023/09/14 -

Rebecca Hemmings - 2023/09/02 -

We absolutely loved our stay! We spent at least half an hour checking out our treehouse along with the property before unloading the car. The attention to detail from the decor to the “fun” aspects of the treehouse was phenomenal. My kids had a blast and my husband and I were able to relax and recharge. Will be recommending you guys to our family and friends. We for sure will be making future trips just so we can come back to Sanctuary Treehouse Resort.

Matt Williams - 2023/08/31 -

Excellent experience, beautiful treehouses, extremely friendly staff. Would definitely recommend!!

Heather T - 2023/08/25 -

Relax and refresh You don’t get any better than a luxury treehouse. The owners didn’t leave anything out! From the hideaway bed to the drink chute… to swinging beds and outdoor fireplaces. It feels like a getaway, but still convenient to get to town. This is the place to relax and refresh!

Patrice Yunits - 2023/08/23 -

I purchased this as a family Christmas present and what a wonderful time it was. I brought my two sons and their families and we had a wonderful weekend. Sanctuary did not disappoint they thought of all a travelers needs and so many wonderful details for the littles. My grandkiddos were so excited to explore and find the trap door , the drink shoot, slide and all the cools swings. We grilled dinner one night and breakfast and sat around the fire pit and just got caught up on all that is going on with my family. I totally will book again and would highly recommend the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort. What a great family time!!

Patrice Y - 2023/08/21 -

What a wonderful family time we had at the treehouses We stayed in the Tarzan and Jane there were 10 of us. The tree houses were so fun for every age The littles had so much fun with all the cool swings draw bridge drink shoot trap door while the adults loved the clean comfortable rooms the beds the outdoor space . I wanted to make memories with my boys and their kiddos and that is exactly what I did I will look into booking again and making this a tradition as my family grows. I want to thank the Jenson family and staff for their hospitality and negotiating all kinds of local deals for us . Such a great trip don’t miss it !!!

Jensen Overbay - 2023/08/18 -

The treehouses were the PERFECT couples getaway! We stayed in the Honey Hole and enjoyed sitting under the tree house and watching movies while it rained! I would greatly recommend for anyone, not just couples! This place is in the perfect spot to vacation in Sevierville, pigeon forge, and Gatlinburg! It provides a quiet stay but is also close to everything you could need. BOOK NOW!!

Jenny G. - 2023/08/17 -

My home away from home in the Smoky Mointains I’d give this 10 stars if I could! Everything was so well planned in this quaint tree house. So many clever uses of space. And spotlessly clean. The staff were friendly and awesome. I half hesitate to write this review. I’d like to keep it my little secret!

L “san ramon” B - 2023/08/16 -

I found the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort on-line when looking into the Smoky Mountains National Park. I hit a homerun with my wife on this place. We loved it and thank you for the tremendous service!

LMcGuinn - 2023/08/15 -

5 Stars Plus We found Sanctuary on the internet and couldn’t be happier. The Treehouse was TREE-mendous!!! Upon arrival we found it perfectly neat, clean and organized. Absolutely great attention to the detail including the snacks, fireplace wood and starters , the innovative sinks, the lighting, the comfortable deck chairs, the nightly stars on the ceiling, etc. The biggest problem we had was there was so much to do in town, which is very nearby, but you just don’t want to leave the Treehouse!!! We came all the way from New York and we will not hesitate to come again😍We want to especially thank the office manger for the very useful coupons to local eateries(which we took advantage of) as well as the tips on the best supermarkets to shop at. One more thing, be sure to watch the videos on how to operate the various amenities at the Treehouse!!!

Heather Diefenbach - 2023/08/15 -

This was truly an amazing experience, not only was the treehouse decorated beautifully, it was clean and the stuff were so very helpful! I will be back every year!!!

Corey s - 2023/08/12 -

Perfect stay This is an amazing place to stay. Each and every detail was well thought out and the quality is top notch. Trip highlight was watching a movie on the hanging bed under the stars followed by s’mores in the deck fireplace. Was here for a father-daughter 13 year old trip and this place was the the icing on the cake to make it magical

Daniel M - 2023/08/10 -

Unique, peaceful, luxurious, kid-friendly, convenient, the list goes on - stop looking and start booking! Well, I'm not sure who was more excited, us or our kids, but this place was pretty freaking awesome, with so much attention to detail and nuanced touches of luxury that were just really impressive. When we arrived, I think we spent forever checking it all out before we remembered we had to get our stuff out of the car! The trap door was great, and brought back childhood memories, and the slide was well-used, including by myself and my wife - hey, it's faster than the stairs getting to the lower level! We had fun with the drink chute, and the lower level swings were a blast, as well as the outdoor TV to catch some sports while unwinding from the day. The rollout queen bed was a hit with the kids, along with the bunks, and the log pillows. The shower and bathroom areas were really well-done, and laid out nicely considering the living areas. The little things were nice, too, like the heated and lighted toilet, the starlight on the ceiling, the convenient charging ports, the kitchen amenities, and so much more. The list goes on with all of the details and features, but, do yourself a favor and book a stay to experience it yourself. It's like nothing else out there, and, if your kids are like ours, they'll be asking to stay there indefinitely. We did consider it since they would put them to work, but decided against it since our kids are pretty awesome, and we have work for them to do at our house already. Oh, the check-in process and general communication was smooth, as well, and the staff and owners are very friendly and accommodating. They even have some awesome relationships in the area with certain discounts, which we took advantage of, as well. One last thing - the location is fantastic, as you're tucked back off the main stretch, but, right there near everything, too, including a fairly short (by Sevier County standards especially) trip to nearby towns and attractions. If you're looking for a unique place to stay during your visit to the Smokies, that really covers all the bases, stop dilly-dallying and check this place out! You won't be disappointed.

Fun place to stay and play with the whole family!

Geoff R - 2023/08/08 -

Creative Sanctuary By far the most unique place I’ve ever been. All the amenities provided plus some you’d never consider like the drink chute to the hanging bed down below, a toilet that does everything except pull your TP off the roll, dry firewood and material to start it burning. Superbly and creatively decorated, accent lighting, “tree branches” , a cool electric fire that doubled as a night light, a star projector

2M Farms - 2023/08/08 -

We had the best time celebrating our son’s birthday at the treehouse! We highly recommend staying here and are looking forward to our next trip.

Brandy Harbin - 2023/08/08 -

Cara J - 2023/08/06 -

Fun stay in a treehouse! We had a wonderful stay in the treehouse! Our kids loved the hidden ladder, huge slide, and the swings on the lower porch. All the little decorator's touches made the room very cozy and welcoming. We are looking forward to returning!

Katie A - 2023/07/12 -

Spacious and Memorable Accommodations Very well done treehouse inspired two story cabin. The cabin was spacious enough that our family of four never felt crowded. We loved the lower level outdoor patio with fun seating options, a table for eating / games and a tv. We would go down immediately to hang there as we woke up. The outdoor area on the second floor had even better views, an outdoor fire for s’mores, a slide downstairs and escape hatch. The interior had beautiful decor. We especially enjoyed the star projector and heater toilet seat. All of the beds were very comfortable. The staff was responsive and courteous. The kids have already asked when we can return.

Amanda R - 2023/07/12 -

Great experience can't wait to go back. Our family of 6 stayed in Air Fort One. There was room for more. All of the details that went into the theme were perfect. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. We can't wait to come back and check out the other sites. Close to everything but far enough away to relax.

Jacob Zigelnik - 2023/07/11 -

This is hands down the best place you could stay in East Tennessee. You have wonderful views of the Smokies and it is secluded enough to be quiet and relaxing. The property is also 5 minutes away from restaurants, shopping centers, grocery stores, and bars. The small details the owners thought of gave us such a unique experience you cannot find anywhere else. This is 100% the place to stay if you are traveling to East Tennessee.

Laura Kutchey - 2023/07/09 -

We absolutely loved staying here! Beautiful room! We laughed at the humor of the signs, enjoyed the swinging bed, the beautiful tub, and the view was just beautiful! We highly recommend staying here!

Michelle Wright - 2023/07/04 -

Great location and fun place to stay! I can't wait for the Resort to be completed and we will come back!

stebunny - 2023/07/02 -

We booked Tarzan & Jane and it was a fun & neat experience. The views were incredible! It was very comfortable without being too crowded for 2 families. The large indoor TV, Keurig, Fridge and Microwave were useful. The other fun details were cute & imaginative! From the heated toilet seat to fun pulley ropes and beautiful decor. The bottom outdoor space has plenty of seating, swinging chairs and rope swing too. The large TV equipped with Bluetooth music was a fun touch. We were a bit puzzled when we arrived as we didn’t know that they resort was still a work in progress. We weren’t sure how/ where to check in since we expected to park in a lot and have to take a golf cart to the treehouse. The lack of golf cart was a bit disappointing for the youngest ones in our group. We also read that the resort had a community fire pit and hang out area/ communal grill but we only saw a covered area with loose, piled up stepping stones and a bobcat blocking the area. We are hoping to return in 2026 to see the finished resort and take full advantage of all the amenities until then the Treehouse Sanctuary will remain and fantastic memory for us! Thank you for all the fun!

An amazing couple's getaway that's only minutes from a waterpark and shopping. This place was such an awesome experience for my fiance and I. From the southern mountain-esque aesthetics to the subtle political comedic undertones in some of the decor, this place was as close to perfect as I can imagine. I'm looking forward to coming back in the near future and can't wait to see the stuff they have planned for the near future!

Our family of 8 stayed in the treehouses named Tarzan and Jane. They are two treehouses connected with a drawbridge. Our experience at the Sanctuary Treehouse Resort was an intriguing balance of old fashion treehouse fun and unexpected pampering. The trap doors, dual slides, drink chutes, swinging ropes and buckets on pulleys were a huge hit for hours on end. We also loved the comfy king size bed, warm toilet seat, gorgeous glass bathroom sink, twinkling ceiling/wall lights, kitchenette, fireplace and tv screens inside and outside. The owners are super friendly and accommodating. This was our first visit and look forward to visiting again.

My entire family enjoyed our time staying at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort! The kids had a blast playing with all of the treehouse details like the slide, swings, and escape hatch. The beds were comfortable too! The little extras around the treehouse were useful as well. We will definitely be back!

One of a kind experience! Fantastic experience! We stayed in the Homey Hole and had the most luxurious relaxing stay. So many special amenities. If I could describe it in one word it would be ‘Magical’. The engineering, decor and artwork is all unique and intriguing. We Loved staying there and we will return! The views of the Smoky Mountains are incredible . Thank you to the Jensen’s!

This is an amazing place to stay. Each and every detail was well thought out and the quality is top notch. Trip highlight was watching a movie on the hanging bed under the stars followed by s’mores in the deck fireplace. Was here for a father-daughter 13 year old trip and this place was the the icing on the cake to make it magical

10/10 STUNNING!!! The Sanctuary Treehouses are absolutely beautiful and so well curated. Everything you need from mini fridges, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, heated toilet seats, and the list could go on and on. This is the perfect spot for couples or families with something for everyone! Location is also fantastic (close to everything including a chick fli a). Highly highly recommend for a family vacation or even just a weekend getaway (The honey hole is a couples dream).

Gorgeous views and amazing attention to detail by the design team. Not the cheapest accommodation in the Gatlinburg area but well worth the price

Amber S - 2023/06/02 -

Lots of Family Fun We stayed in the treehouses with our family in the "Jane" treehouse. My brother's family stayed in the "Tarzan" treehouse. There is a drawbridge between the two so you can mingle in the trees without touching the ground. The racing slides were a huge hits with the kids and the adults. The views are breathtaking. The sunsets are the best. We grilled on the back porch and enjoyed the fireplace outside that night. The bed was super comfortable and it was ultra fun for everyone. We will be back. Thank you for having us.

Perfect Unique Getaway! Love, love, love the Tarzan and Jane Double Fort treehouses! Our treehouses connected with a drawbridge allowing each couple privacy of their own space, and lots of beautiful deck space to enjoy coffee and beautiful views in the mornings and afternoons (including a bald eagle) and a lovely fire for cocktails and s'mores in the evening. The decor is absolutely wonderful with special touches everywhere you look. The king bed was super comfortable, the treehouse is large, and all amenities were perfect. The slide was very cool...and VERY fast. Definitely recommend for a family or couples! So fun and unique.

My stay was awesome, can’t wait until I can go back- One of the best experience. I have had- Thank you so much.

My wife and I spent an enjoyable time and had a unique experience for our anniversary in the Tree-Mendous Fun treehouse. It is everything the website and travel articles promised, a cozy interior complete with hideaway extra beds, spacious deck with built-in fireplace and a Weber grill that I used to prepare our dinners. Although we are both seniors, we enjoyed using the slide from the deck to the ground and the swings on the open air ground floor. The treehouse was clean when we arrived, the beds comfortable, and the heated toilet seat was a nice touch! The treehouse is well-appointed with artwork, two large screen TVs (one up and one down), and a special night light that projects stars onto the ceiling. The grounds are well-maintained with views of the surrounding countryside. More treehouses are currently being built so there is some construction noise during the day, but it doesn't detract from the overall serenity of the area, especially after the work crews leave in the afternoon. Sanctuary Treehouse Resort has my highest recommendation for anyone looking for a unique travel experience. We hope to visit again.

Magical and more If you’re looking for a fun, unique, relaxing, romantic, adventurous or unforgettable experience, this is your place. The surroundings of incredible mountain views are what you come for and do not disappoint. But the treehouse experience is one that will make you want to never leave. It’s evident that this family has put more than world class craftsmanship into each unique themed treehouse of whimsy. They collaboratively created warm, welcoming and luxury accommodations for all travelers visiting the Smokey Mountains. No one can be less than enchanted staying at the Sanctuary

Amazing’ doesn’t begin to describe how wonderful this room is Absolutely wonderful. Comfortable and beautiful. Nicer than many luxury hotels we have stayed at. All the little touches make it warm and inviting. Bed is very comfortable. You really have to see it to believe it. Also staff very responsive to texts. Replied right away with amazing service. Can’t wait to come back on vacation.

Pam L - 2023/05/24 -

A must experience Unique and luxurious. Had such a relaxing time at the Treehouse. All the details and amenities were so appreciated. Beautiful inside and out. Spent a lot of time out on the deck just enjoying the view. Great way to spend a few days or longer. Highly recommend it.

Kristi W - 2023/05/22 -

Above and beyond!! They have thought of absolutely everything! I can’t say enough great things about this place. Our little family of three had an amazing time. The escape ladder was my daughters favorite and we loved watching her play for hours between that and the slide. My husband and I loved all the amenities outside as well. We will definitely go back in the future!

R. D. - 2023/05/12 -

Awesome place. My kids absolutely loved it there. Would defiantly recommend checking this place out. I look forward to visiting again.

Discover - 2023/05/08 -

One of a kind experience! My family and I had a blast here. I would recommend this place to everyone. It’s such a unique experience. I’d recommend this to anyone who is looking for something new and exciting. You can really tell a lot of thought and care went into this place.

These Squirrels Have Gone Wild! We just spent five nights in the brand new Sanctuary Treehouse Resort in the Smoky Mountains! I’ve been a bit obsessed with staying in a treehouse ever since I knew they existed as a “thing,” and I felt SO lucky to have scored one of the first reservations at this luxury treehouse resort. We have been looking forward to this trip since last year, and it did NOT disappoint! Our treehouse was “Squirrels Gone Wild” - every little detail was perfect! There literally were squirrels going “wild” all over the treehouse (note the pictures - so funny). The owners have a great sense of humor. 🙂 Aside from the obvious things, like a theme, the treehouse was truly *luxurious*. I mean, I never knew how much I needed a heated, light up toilet seat … but I do not want to be without one now! I also need rotating stars and clouds projected on my ceiling every night. My boyfriend has a very long “to do” list (thank you Amanda & Brian lol). Speaking of the owners, even though they were hard at work every day, expanding their new resort, they were also incredibly responsive and kind. They were always on call if anyone needed anything, and immediately got back to any emails (including those with silly questions like: “what does *this* switch do?”). The location (in Sevierville, TN) was great! I was a bit worried we’d be far from the National Park … but we were VERY close to Pigeon Forge and wow - are there a ton of things to do there! Also, we were only 20 or 25 mins. from Gatlinburg and the park, even on the busiest of days. So thrilled to have spent time here! Hope we left our little squirrels in as good of shape as we found them. …except for the poor guy over the shower - he looked like he needed some assistance (or hair of the dog). 🙂

Amazing Family Trip! We had a great time at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort! The resort is great for both adults and kids. Our son loved all of the extra touches - fun decor, escape hatch on the deck, swings, etc. The owners were extremely personable and willing to offer recommendations. The location was fantastic - the property feels secluded, but is close to local ameneties and attractions. We look forward to going back agin.

Amazing stay in “Chasing Fireflies” Treehouse Awesome doesn’t do this place justice… This was one of the most amazing places we have stayed! We stayed in the “Chasing Fireflies “ themed treehouse and every detail was executed to perfection! Super clean and neat on arrival with beautifully appointed decor, fireplaces inside and out, a keurig coffee pot with well stocked coffee bar and snacks. The outdoor fireplace had all the wood we needed along with matches and fire starter blocks, our 7 yr old grandson thought the heated toilet seat was pretty cool… the beds were comfy….the treehouse slide, trap door, hidden bed, and drink chute were a big hit! The lower deck swings were also a big hit with our grandson. There literally was nothing that wasn’t thought thru with details and amenities…. We were greeted shortly after arriving by hosts Amanda & Brian and they could not have been more friendly! This is definitely an experience we will remember and look forward to coming back! The pictures do not do justice, you need to experience a treehouse stay for yourself! Highly recommend , 10/10

Birthday Celebration My husband and I spent 3 nights in" Air Fort One "to celebrate my 69th birthday and we truly had a wonderful time. We met Brian, the owner, when we arrived and he told us to let him know if we needed anything while we were there. We were in need of nothing. The "fort" was in a great location. Ours had a view of the mountains and a beautiful sunrise. Would definitely advise you to book this treehouse. Loved, loved, loved the outdoor fireplace which was stocked with all the cut wood we needed. Had a fire each night we were there. Would have used the downstairs outdoor area also, but we had rain while there, It did not dampen our visit. Even went down the slide once. Such fun. My only suggestion would be to have more than one hand towel and maybe a toaster. But we would not hesitate to book this treehouse again. Good luck on the new builds that are happening in the future. We also met the General Contractor and he was friendly and helpful with area activity suggestions, too.

Incredible Experience at Sanctuary Treehouse Resort! This is a unique and exceptional new resort in Sevierville, TN. It is located at the foothills of the Smokies and the views and location are incredible! This uniquely designed new resort is growing rapidly and every Tree House has individual features that make the Sanctuary standout! The treehouses are comfortable, well appointed, and can accommodate up to six people. It would make a lovely family retreat or a lovers paradise for two. You can't go wrong here!

Mabel H - 2023/04/25 -

Can’t wait to return! I had the privilege of visiting these gorgeous treehouses. They are well designed with everything you need in mind. The themes are clever- some beautiful w stunning art and some whimsical and silly. The setting is gorgeous and the owners are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. I highly recommend it to families, couples or groups of friends. It will not disappoint.

William H - 2023/04/25 -

Loved it y’all If you are looking for an experience instead of a regular stay at any hotel or resort then the Sanctuary is for you. The tree house is everything they showed on the website. Amazing views!! We will be back

Best treehouse experience ever! Whether you're traveling with family, as a couple, or solo, this place has something for everyone. My stay in "The Honey Hole" was beyond exceptional. Pictures don't do it justice. You have to experience it for yourself to appreciate all the extra features. Beautiful location and so convenient to Sevierville and Pigeon Forge. I can't wait to visit again!

Heather O - 2023/04/17 -

The Honey Hole with My Honey! We loved everything about this trip!! The views were spectacular and the accommodations were luxurious and quaint all at the same time. We felt like we were embedded in the mountains in a treehouse that was clean and came equipped with all the conveniences we would need -- and more. The spacious tub, picturesque deck and warm fire hit the spot while we enjoyed each other on our romantic get-away!! 10/10 recommend this destination for couples. In addition, we hope to revisit soon with our adult children -- who will never be too old for a slide!

Patti S - 2023/04/16 -

Magical! What a wonderful resort! It is so very inviting, from the decor to the comfy pillows. In the treehouse, you literally have a bird's eye view of God's country. These folks thought of everything, such as the little snacks that were provided and a drink chute that you will just have to see to appreciate. Definitely will return!

Spring break trip My family came and stayed during spring break! This was the first vacation my kids cried leaving! Tree-Mendous treehouse was absolutely amazing! Family rested and played wonderfully! The owners/staff were all so friendly and accommodating! We will be back!

Still astounded by this much luxury in a tree. childhood fantasies come true. Exceptional stay in a luxurious treehouse! So comfortable-beautiful lighting, kitchenette, fireplace and flushing toilet /bidet. Glamping on a new level with careful attention to detail & creative design . Indoor/outdoor at its best

Unforgettable Rustic-Ritzy Experience! The brand new Sanctuary Treehouse Resort is such an enjoyable and distinctive resort. It’s a perfect idea to create the rustic design scheme of a treehouse resort in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. But, rustic is not what we experienced in “The Honey Hole” Luxury Treehouse. This is the deluxe couple’s retreat version of cozy, comfy and opulent. Four guest can comfortably enjoy this space, but it was just my honey and me staying this trip. There are not one, but TWO fireplaces, one indoor (electric) and one outdoor (wood-burning). Unexpectedly, the outdoor space was just as well appointed as the indoor. We loved the swinging bed on the private lower deck with curtains billowing in the mountain breezes and even an outdoor television. The upper deck had a countertop built into the deck railing and light weight barstools to take in the golf course, City and Mountain Views. Extravagant extras such as TWO gorgeous soaking tubs (inside and outside) create a very posh experience for guests. Of course, we will be back again and again for more of this “rustic-ritzy” one-of-a-kind vacations. Thank you to the family owned and operated new resort for making our most recent Smoky Mountain getaway UNFORGETTABLE! If you’re reading this review and wondering if this is something that you would enjoy…..BOOK THE TRIP!

Perfect Family Destination This is the perfect vacation destination! I took my daughter, son in law and 3 grandsons and stayed in the double (Tarzan & Jane) . Our treehouses were joined by a draw bridge! This was a huge plus for our family going back & forth to each others treehouse. There is slide on each treehouse and lots of racing during our stay! The swings under the treehouse provided hours of fun and relaxation. Inside the treehouse there are some options to accommodate indoor activities. The bottom bunkbed can be raised to a tabletop bar area perfect for eating or snacking inside. If you have picky sleepers, no worries there are some bed choices. Under the king bed there is a queen bed than can be pulled ( or use the wheel to move the bed out) in front of the king bed or there are the bunkbeds.The beds and pillows are comfortable and well appointed. The attention to detail and theme related extra’s in each treehouse was impressive.The amenities are premium, and the design fun for all ages! It is a wonderful place for families to spend quality time together and make sweet memories.😍

Fun Family Getaway This was a fun getaway for our family. Kids loved the whimsical touches like the drink chute and slide. Location is close enough to town. We brought in food and planned to glamp for the weekend. Very thoughtful extras like having matches and fire starters ready to go. Good technology - strong Wi-Fi and two smart TVs. The outdoor fireplace was really nice to sit outside and enjoy. A couple small suggestions: provide a potholder/dish towel/dish rack. The kitchenette sink isn’t really functional for washing anything… while design-wise very neat, we couldn’t wash the cutting board, etc or anything larger than a small plate. We ended up picking up paper plates to make cleanup easier. Also, if you plan to cook at the unit, the grill works well but is very small (although we managed to cook an Easter ham and Au gratin potatoes on it!).

Eileen B - 2023/04/04 -

Great location. It was wonderful. The treehouses are beautifully made, and equipped with all the things you need to make your experience great. The kids loved playing around the treehouse property. Ages 13,11,8.!

Very excited to stay at this brand new resort during their inaugural year! Booking online was so easy, any questions we have asked have been answered promptly and we love seeing progress and glimpses of “our” treehouse (we chose Chasing Fireflies when we booked) as the developers post photos and videos! Looking forward to creating new traditions in our new favorite place to stay in the Smokies!
