★ 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.

    Very unique, quiet, clean, and private property. We were there for our 10th anniversary and wanted to ‘get away from it all’ and enjoy some time alone- this was perfect! We enjoyed sitting on the spacious deck and having morning coffee- and having an afternoon nap in the reclining chairs- at night we watched the twinkling stars from the hot tub. We did cook a few meals there- the kitchen was extremely well stocked with everything you would ever need- even spices, flour, sugar, and coffee and creamer!! The bed was comfy and the shower was huge. We really loved our stay and highly recommend!

    This was the perfect place to relax and getaway for a week. The luxury safari tent was even better than expected and so much better than an expensive hotel room. We loved it and highly recommend it! Hopefully we will get a chance to stay here again soon!

    Fantastic place to stay! I went for some quiet time away from the city and this did not disappoint. Quant little town of Bryson City has some fun shops and the GSMT station and museum are a great excursion. Beautiful nights under the stars in the hot tub and it got cold enough that I even enjoyed a bonfire in the firepit. Definitely going back!

    The property is beautiful and exactly what we were looking for! We loved the openness of the tent...just enough room for 2 people. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub while looking at the stars through the trees. The shower was wonderful; we didn’t use the tub. We found plenty of hiking trails and places to relax by the river. Perfect weekend to celebrate our first anniversary and we will definitely visit again!! Thank you for such a beautiful place!

    From the time we arrived, we absolutely fell in love with your beautiful place. It’s by far one of the coolest, cleanest, neatest places we’ve ever experienced. We enjoyed every minute of our time there. I loved EVERYTHING about it! The bed was so comfortable! It was so well thought out and decorated! It had everything you’d need as if you were at home! The only regret we have, was we wished we would’ve stayed longer. We will be back and highly recommend this place. Five +star
