Known for its vibrant arts and music scene, dozens of breweries, natural attractions like the Blue Ridge Parkway, and convenience to a smorgasbord of outdoor activities, Asheville attracts all ages. Campers can take advantage of myriad campgrounds at city and state parks, or in the vast Pisgah National Forest, where miles of hiking and mountain biking trails and waterfalls offer days of outdoor fun, but for those seeking a more elevated camping experience, treehouse rentals near Asheville can offer an unforgettable stay. Some North Carolina treehouse rentals are primitive, while others provide a more luxury commune with nature. From a spiritual retreat custom-built by the TV show Treehouse Masters to a private glamping deck with long-range mountain views, campers can enjoy wooded privacy within close proximity to the buzzing hub of Asheville or the many forests and outdoor activities that surround.

Nestled in the heart of North Carolina, Tuxedo Falls offers upscale boutique lodging and unparalleled outdoor experiences. Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, our unique blend of high-end hospitality and natural beauty provides the perfect retreat. At Tuxedo Falls, our love for the outdoors runs deep—and we want to share it with you. Our journey began when we stumbled upon this long-forgotten forest oasis. Once a bustling summer camp, the land had become overgrown and inaccessible. But we saw the potential to breathe new life into it. With deep family roots in nearby Lake Summit and Flat Rock, we knew there was a need for upscale, outdoor-oriented hospitality. Inspired by the summer camps that have long defined the Tuxedo area, we set out to create a place where adults, families, and groups could enjoy nature in comfort and style. Tuxedo Falls is more than a destination— it’s a homecoming to the outdoors. We believe time spent outside is essential to our health and well-being. That’s why we’re bringing this once-forgotten property back to life—not only as stewards of the land, but as hosts who value both adventure and rest. Here, you’ll discover: Stunning waterfalls on two trout-filled streams Miles of creek-side hiking trails Unique rock outcroppings A ridgetop lodge site with 360° mountain views Acres of mountain laurel, rhododendron, and old-growth forest Tuxedo Falls is a secret oasis waiting to be explored—and we can’t wait to welcome you.

Nestled in the heart of North Carolina, Tuxedo Falls offers upscale boutique lodging and unparalleled outdoor experiences. Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, our unique blend of high-end hospitality and natural beauty provides the perfect retreat. At Tuxedo Falls, our love for the outdoors runs deep—and we want to share it with you. Our journey began when we stumbled upon this long-forgotten forest oasis. Once a bustling summer camp, the land had become overgrown and inaccessible. But we saw the potential to breathe new life into it. With deep family roots in nearby Lake Summit and Flat Rock, we knew there was a need for upscale, outdoor-oriented hospitality. Inspired by the summer camps that have long defined the Tuxedo area, we set out to create a place where adults, families, and groups could enjoy nature in comfort and style. Tuxedo Falls is more than a destination— it’s a homecoming to the outdoors. We believe time spent outside is essential to our health and well-being. That’s why we’re bringing this once-forgotten property back to life—not only as stewards of the land, but as hosts who value both adventure and rest. Here, you’ll discover: Stunning waterfalls on two trout-filled streams Miles of creek-side hiking trails Unique rock outcroppings A ridgetop lodge site with 360° mountain views Acres of mountain laurel, rhododendron, and old-growth forest Tuxedo Falls is a secret oasis waiting to be explored—and we can’t wait to welcome you.

Weekend Trip to Cold Spring Basecamp

Great property. Well maintained bath house. Nice trails throughout. Would be fun for a large group. Easy access to Hendersonville. The Sauna and cold plunge were an unexpected delight. Waterfall tucked away was fun to explore. Will be back!

2 nights at Highland Cow Off-Grid Treehouse

My wife and I had a great time celebrating our our anniversary at the treehouse. Got a little bit of snow as well but we were very cozy and the views are spectacular. Highly recommend!

2 nights at Cold Spring Basecamp

Absolutely breathtaking from the moment you arrive. This private property is a hidden gem tucked deep within the forest, offering the perfect blend of comfort and nature. The cabins are spotless, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully designed to feel both cozy and elevated. Every space feels clean, fresh, and welcoming — you can tell great care is put into every detail. The private river access with a cold plunge is an unforgettable experience — peaceful, refreshing, and completely secluded. Whether you’re tent camping under the trees, relaxing in one of the charming shelters, or exploring the scenic hiking and bike trails, there’s something grounding and rejuvenating about being surrounded by such untouched beauty. If you’re looking for a quiet, well-kept retreat that offers privacy, adventure, and relaxation all in one, this place is a five-star sanctuary. We will absolutely be back!

Weekend Trip to Mountaintop Fantasy

Everything was perfect! Peter and his wife were so welcoming. They gave us excellent recommendations, and were so accommodating. Molly was so funny too. Love to see them again! Amazing views. Best view is from one of the bedrooms. It's basically a home away from home. A beautiful place for our first trip together. Bring dog treats. They have plenty of blankets for the winter temperatures!

I really enjoyed spending time with my adult family away from the stresses of the holiday season. We spent daylight visiting Waterfalls, museums and dining. We bonded by the outdoor bonfire at night, and we shared family reflections and laughter in the one-room cabin. As a family that enjoys spending time together, this trip was magical.

Def wish I’d had a sturdier vehicle due to the gravel road but it was well maintained. so no issues. Gorgeous woodsy setting. My daughter loved the treehouse & is already asking to go back

Access to canoes and a dock just a short drive (or walk) from the cabin.

This a very unique and cozy treehouse cabin in a beautiful location, right by Lake Glenville. It is a comfortable space with lots of amenities for a fun weekend in the mountains, and feels very secluded surrounded by woods and at a high elevation. Despite being there in rainy weather, it was beautiful with all the fall foliage! And Peter is a very friendly and welcoming host. I would certainly recommend a visit!

This Treehouse/ Overlook was just right for glamping - all accommodations and ease of use! Warm space to sleep with WiFi, open air kitchen with full accessories, heated full bathroom and shower while being able to enjoy the view of the mountains and nature. Instructions and directions are well thought out and posted for everything. Layout is an easy walk and well designed - great place to to relax and just enjoy your time! Our furry host, Molly was a pleasure to meet and get to know too! Good times had by all!
