About this cabin rental

★ A grown-up treehouse built for two, secluded in the woods.



Huckleberry is a canvas safari tent tucked into its own pocket of forest at Elk Hollow, one of the quieter, more private spots on the property. Guests keep calling it their grown-up treehouse, and that's the feeling: secluded, elevated, and adults-only, with the Smokies all around.



This is glamping, not camping. The walls are canvas, but the comforts aren't: a full kitchen, a spa-style bath, heat and AC, Starlink WiFi, and keyless entry. You'll fall asleep to the sounds of the woods, which is the point.



The bath is the slow-down room. A private hot tub on the deck looks into the mountains, and inside there's a spa-style soaking tub with an oversized tiled walk-in rain shower and a bench. Soak under the stars, soak out of the weather, soak twice in a day.



🛋️ INSIDE

➝ Open, light living room with overstuffed easy chairs and a Smart TV

➝ French doors and windows that bring the forest in

➝ Full kitchen: full-size fridge, gas range, oven, microwave, dishwasher, high-top table for two

➝ Starlink WiFi and a writing desk, so a workcation actually works here



🛏️ WHERE YOU'LL SLEEP

➝ Handcrafted barnwood king bed with plush linens and warm tones

➝ Spa-style indoor soaking tub

➝ Oversized tiled walk-in rain shower with a bench

★ Guests call the bed and the rain shower standouts, and the place "way more glamour than camping"



🌲 OUTSIDE

➝ Roomy wraparound deck with seating

➝ Private hot tub with mountain views, open year-round

➝ Fire pit just a few steps down for starlit evenings

➝ Gas grill for sunrise coffee or dinner under the string lights

➝ Watch for deer, elk, and other wildlife passing through



♥ WHO IT'S FOR

Couples. Anniversaries, honeymoons, or a quiet escape off the grid, and it works as a workcation thanks to the Starlink and desk. Adults-only and secluded by design, so it's a getaway, not a party house.



🚗 GETTING HERE

The access road is steep, so we recommend an AWD or 4WD vehicle, especially in rain, and arriving before dark on your first trip. There are about three steps up to the entrance and a few more down to the fire pit, and the tent isn't wheelchair accessible. A couple of guests' GPS didn't like the address, so use the directions we send and message us if anything looks off. Five minutes from downtown Bryson City, with the Deep Creek entrance to the Smokies right down the hill.



➳ GOOD TO KNOW

It's a canvas safari tent, so you'll hear the rain, the birds, and a bit more of the outdoors than a cabin. A couple of other tents sit nearby, though guests rarely notice them. It's glamping with a full kitchen, spa bath, and heat and AC, not roughing it, but the canvas and the steps are real and worth picturing before you book.

This was an amazing stay and everything was so simple to navigate. The owner gave perfect directions prior to our check in and included perfectly timed updates. We had brought some things for cooking that we thought may be needed, but kitchen had it all so we over packed, ha! Very clean rooms and a comfortable bed. Not one tho g was out of place. I truly think this was the best experience we have had renting. Very peaceful and just the perfect unique little staycation! Thank you for sharing!
