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.

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!

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.

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.
David Zolman - 2024/03/15 -
We had the best time ever on our Spring Break trip to Sanctuary Treehouse! Our kids had a BLAST using the slide, swings, trap door and drink shoot! The room was well stocked, very clean and super inviting. I would HIGHLY recommend Sanctuary Treehouse and can’t wait to stay again as the new treehouses are complete! I gave 4 stars on service because the house keeper left a bunch of unused trash bags (including a big roll of bags) on the bed upon arrival. Otherwise, everything was PERFECT!!!
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!

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!

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!!

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!!!

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!!!

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

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!

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

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.

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!

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.
Natalie Cardi - 2023/06/26 -
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!
Tess h - 2023/06/21 -
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!

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.
audreyh - 2023/06/01 -
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 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!

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!

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!
