Holly Forest Treehouse - Dogs Welcome!

This property is not only pet-friendly, it's PETS ENCOURAGED! This recently renovated treehouse is a 2 bed/2bath that boasts an additional Dog Suite, so your furry family members have a space all their own! There is an outdoor dog bath (including shampoo & towels) as well as a large fenced-in Dog Play Area. And NO PET FEES! (3 dogs max, unless approved in advance by owner).

For our human guests, the property is on a very private wooded lot and includes an outdoor fire pit, hammock, and outdoor deck. There is also a wood burning fireplace in the great room. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, king size bed, and Smart TV. The secondary bedroom has a queen size bed. There is an extra twin bed (upper bunk) in the Dog Suite if needed (the lower bunk is reserved for dogs only). There is also a small office space, should you need to check in with work while visiting the area. Unlike many other mountain locations, this treehouse offers a strong cell signal and wifi.

The property is easily accessible from Hwy 64, and is approximately 7 minutes from the Sapphire Valley Resort. Guests of the property are eligible to purchase an amenity card for the Sapphire Valley Resort. The amenity card provides the user access to the private lake, fitness center, arcade, mini-golf, horse shoe pit, basketball court, track, and dog park. (For more info about the amenities and seasonal events check out www.sapphirevalleyresort.com)

Narrows Falls is located within the community and is a 15 minute walk from the property. 60 minutes to Asheville Airport, 25 minutes to Highlands, 15 minutes to Gorges State Park, 35 minutes to Brevard & Pisgah National Forest, and 60-75 minutes to Cherokee & Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

NOTE: Although the driveway is paved and has ample parking, there are 12-15 stair steps from the parking area to the treehouse, so if you have mobility issues, this may not be an appropriate property for you.

This was the perfect mountain getaway!
The house was absolutely beautiful with anything and everything we needed! The host had a book with everything the area had to offer from hiking trails restaurant recommendations. The deck outside was perfect for morning coffee and enjoying time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I would highly recommend this house for anyone!

Fantastic accommodation
What a delightful and well named destination. The views really did make us feel like we were up in the trees. Upon entering I was struck with how spotless everything was and the welcoming flowers were a nice touch. We enjoyed the games, puzzles, and conveniences for cooking. Jodi’s thoughtfulness is apparent in every aspect of the supplies and equipment. A great place for dogs and humans alike!

Wonderful house & location. Owner thought of everything!
My husband and I with our 2 westies spent 4 nights here for my birthday. We couldn't have asked for better accommodations. So many small touches (games, dog toys, tea & coffee, charging cords) throughout the house. We enjoyed use of both the fire pit outdoors and the inside fireplace. We loved walking to the falls. We will be back.

Relaxing Fall Break
Our family of 3 humans and 1 yorkie loved our time at the Holly Forest Treehouse. The house was comfortable and a good size for us. The owner had thought of everything for our pup. We appreciated the recommendations for dog-friendly restaurants in Cashiers. We like the Sapphire Valley amenities too, and enjoyed kayaking, mini golf, the pool, and arcade, as well as hiking.

Tucked Away Treehouse
We had a wonderful weekend stay at Jodi's tree house. It's the perfect home for your furbabies. She has thought of everyrjing to make sure your dogs have everything they may need. We didn't use the extra doggie bedroom however it is a great addition to this house. Your spoiled pets will love it here.

Great property. Our dog child loved having more blankets and toys to play with and the long porch was his fav! The fences in area along with the neighborhood walks were wonderful for all of us. It was clean, neat and had everything we needed!!

Dog Heaven
Our dog sitter had knee replaced so we were traveling with our two fur babies (I prefer leaving them at home). This will be the only place I will consider if I encounter this situation again. The dog house was fantastic as well as the fenced in area. The house itself was beautiful and the best stocked kitchen I have ever encountered in a rental unit. Nicely secluded but an easy drive to restaurants and grocerys. Needs more than five stars

Welcoming & Cozy
I’ve rented lots of properties over the years, but I have to give accolades to Jodi for providing the most thoughtful and well stocked place I’ve ever stayed! The cabin was a dream for people traveling with their beloved fur babies to begin with. From her own bedroom to soft throws, toys, treats and even shampoo … this rental provided comfort for my Sophia Grace that I couldn’t find elsewhere! For us humans, we were greeted with a well stocked kitchen with ample supplies of trash bags, laundry and dishwasher detergent, toilet paper … you know … all the things you either bring from home of have to go out and find at the closest market! We had access to games, books, steaming tv and even a few bottles of wine! The cabin is very secluded and the deck and fire pit area make enjoying nature easy and sweet!! Thanks so much for sharing your place with us!!!

This was a great spot. Close to many things but still out of the way and quiet. My daughter had to bribe the dog with treats to leave.

Woodsy chic and dog friendly
My husband and I enjoyed staying at the Treehouse for our anniversary and to meet up with some friends in the area. I'd describe the house as "woodsy chic" - it's unique and comfy with charming decor, a huge porch that we loved to sit out on and look at the changing foliage with our dogs (there is a gate to close that keeps them in). The spot is surrounded by trees. It feels very private. The kitchen is well stocked and the bedrooms are cozy and cute. The house is very clean, and it is definitely set up to be dog friendly with the extra "dog house" room available. Communication with the host was easy. We loved it!

Awesome escape for our anniversary!
This is a great place to stay. Very well maintained property. It was like a home away from home. The dogs were very comfortable and loved chillin on the porch with us each day. The short hike to Narrow falls was great also. Definitely will share this with family and friends.
