This site is accessed via a short trail through the trees down a gentle, sloping hill, and finally by a short stairway, and as such it may not be easily accessible for campers with limited mobility.
Located on the grounds of the Duckpond Pottery, The Quack Shack is a secluded treehouse perched along the banks of the French Broad River. The structure is an 8x10 A-frame that transforms via a hinged wall into an open-air cabana with a charming deck that affords spectacular views of the French Broad River and surrounding countryside. The interior of the Quack Shack, with its vaulted 11-foot ceiling and earthen plaster walls, provides a warm glow in a rainforest environment. It is furnished with a comfortable seating area surrounding a coffee table that can be easily converted to a full-size queen bed at night. On the outside deck are beach chairs and a chimenea available for use. The quack shack has electric power (1 outlet only).
Amenities include a bathroom located a short walk away at the main building as well as an open-air on-demand shower located off the bathroom on a deck overlooking the French Broad River. Morning coffee and tea is available at The Tea Hut located just a hop, skip, and jump from the treehouse. A new two person wood fired hot tub and cold plunge is now located just off the steps of the treehouse. (Contact us if you’d like to reserve it during your stay. Hot tub is $40/first night and $15 each following nigjt)
NOTE: The Duckpond Pottery is a working studio pottery and gallery that is open to the public. It is also home to occasional open-air house concerts on the deck at the pottery.

Absolutely FABULOUS getaway. The facilities are beautiful- clean, warm, and welcoming. Leaves you feeling like a home away from home. We were only there for one night- but we didn’t want to leave. We had our own campfire right outside the tent. If you forgot anything - no worries! The camp store had everything you could possibly need. We will most definitely be back.

This was a delightful glamping experience. The tents are clean and the beds while firm were comfortable. Everything is well maintained. We spent some time in the sauna, w much was nice. There is a little shop adjacent to the common area which has additional supplies and foodstuffs if needed. Great getaway for a weekend or a trip to the woods.

We had a great time enjoying the glamp set up and all the wonderful amenities. It was very nice being in the woods but still close to the water. The boys loved the corn hole and walking the trail/property. That outdoor kitchen was the perfect set up for all our cooking needs. Thank you Steve for being great host. We look forward to visiting again.

Frostwood is an incredibly well detailed glamping experience. All the small details from the sink with water pumped in to the kitchen details and camp chairs for the fire pit make a stay here feel like a relaxing vacation. Hiking trails are less than a mile away. Appreciated the quick responses from Kris with questions.

A perfect middle balance of tent and cabin for a fun outdoor experience. Everything from the location not far from the water but tucked into the woods, the activities he has available to his guest, and the host 100% hospitality was just perfect. This is most definitely going to be a return trip for future travels.

Nick, our host was super welcoming and helpful with the tour of his property and the treehouse.
The space had everything you need, so much so that I would say I overpacked for our stay.

The treehouse was amazing! It is thoughtfully layed out & just beautiful to wake up in the trees! This is my 2nd time to CSBC ( rented the corn crib before 2 yrs ago). Can see all the improvements made on the land. Super convenient to Flat Rock ( went to Carl Sandburg house) & Hendersonville for the Apple Festival. My friends are all jealous after seeing the pictures & hopefully they’ll book a night or two in the future.

The tree house was so lovely! The beds were comfy, it was incredibly clean, and it was so relaxing. Our kids loved the little fairy houses tucked in the woods.
We had fun exploring the property. For longer hikes, it was convenient to Dupont and Flat Rock.
I would definitely recommend for families (the loft easily slept our 4 and 7 year old). It would also be perfect for a couples trip!

The treehouse is outstanding, well equipped with a very nice bathroom and cosy kitchen. Don’t expect much extra space up in the trees, but sitting out on the deck sipping coffee in the morning is priceless! Had heavy rain one night, and stayed dry inside playing cards. Very cosy!
