Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Enjoy the one-of-a-kind treehouse built by Pete Nelson, the master treehouse builder! Located on the VA Creeper Trail and South Holston Lake, our treehouse is a marvelous opportunity to surround yourself in nature, high up in the Appalachian Mountains. This two story wonder has all necessities such as electricity, running water, and cell phone booster. It has one bedroom, a spacious bathroom with shower, two balconies: one on the second & one of the first floor, a kitchenette and living room!

The space
The Treehouse is located on a 104 acre wooded farm at the confluence of the Middle and South Forks of the Holston River. Bisecting our farm is the Virginia Creeper Trail which runs from Abingdon, Virginia to the top of White Top Mountain.

There is one bedroom in the treehouse with a full bathroom upstairs. Downstairs, there is an outdoor balcony, a kitchenette with microwave and induction burner, and a living room area with extra seating. Newly installed ceiling fans keep the treehouse nice and cool in summer, while a gas fireplace with a thermostat controlled temperature keeps it warm on colder nights.

Outside there is a patio area that has a table with chairs, and custom stone seating. A trail will give guests direct walking access to the Creeper Trail and river which are visible below.

Guest access
Guests will have access to the main treehouse, the playhouse, and river access along the VA Creeper Trail.

Other things to note
Please note that there is no Wifi or TV in the treehouse, however we have installed a cell phone signal booster to help you stay connected. There is no AC in the treehouse but it usually stays cool being tucked away in the shade of the woods. We have multiple ceiling fans for cooling and a fire place to keep the place warm in cold weather.

Meet your hosts

Born in the 80s
My work: Legal Videographer
I run a small legal videography company and manage our family farm in Alvarado. I am married, and my wife, Alena, helps me co-host as well. When we are not working, we like to be outdoors. I moved to Colorado in 2003 to take advantage of the mountains and access to the west, but returned to Virginia in 2020 to be closer to home and manage the property. As a guest, I love to travel, so when I am on the road, it is mostly to be out and about.
