About this cabin rental
The Treetop Terrace is a bright and airy home and is not your typical mountain cabin. All the finishes are top of the line, with granite counters, travertine baths, and wood floors throughout.
The Treetop Terrace has three levels of cozy beauty, with a bedroom and full bath on each floor. The first floor offers a fireplace in the bedroom with queen size bed bunk beds with a twin trundle and a day bed with twin trundle sleeping 7 total. In the first floor bedroom you will enjoy direct access to the wraparound deck. The second level hosts another wraparound deck with breathtaking views, the main room, fully functioning and stocked kitchen, and a spacious king size bedroom. The upper floor offers a loft and private suite with a third bedroom and a king size bed. The loft is perfect for hanging out to read late into the night or greet the day with a quiet cup of coffee. The loft has a queen sleeper sofa for extra guests. If you are a morning person, you will never see a prettier sunrise than from the loft at The Treetop Terrace. Enjoy luxurious surroundings and the panoramic view from every room in the house.
The Big Tree Community is an established subdivision with mostly paved roads that provide easy access to The Treetop Terrace. You feel above it all at 4,500 feet. As you relax on the covered decks, you can enjoy dinner outside on our outdoor dining table, you can watch the cars travel through the hills below while sitting on our nice Polywood Adirondacks, or see the lights flicker on as the day ends.

If you’re visiting the NC Mountains, this home will not disappoint. It is a beautifully decorated and clean home. My wife and I were able to fit in a lot of adventures all within an hour drive. We plan to visit again.

Our stay was fantastic. We were 2 families with a total of 4 adults and 2 eight year old children. The kids had a blast and loved the room with bunk beds and the 2 other rooms were master suites. (Perfect)
Our views of the blue ridge from the porch were perfect in every way and I would highly recommend waking up for the sunrise.
The host was so easy to work with and available any time if we had concerns.
Helpful tips:
- Bring extra paper towels toilet paper.
- If you want any special utensils or kitchen tools bring yours. (Lime juicer, cookie racks, sharp knives)
Fantastic stay and we will be coming back in the future!
Thank you!

This Treetop Terrace cabin was perfect for our family gathering of 11 people! Everything was clean and the hosts were very easy to communicate with. It’s a beautiful 3 story mountain home with a game room. So much to do for the whole family, and you can’t beat the views!

Private cabin in the clouds! Goodness we have found such a jewel! The views just cant be described other than majestic! This fabulous home provided 3 levels for 3 generations! Absolutely PERFECT weekend getaway for boomers, Gen X'rs & the millennials!!! We cant WAIT for another opportunity to visit!!

The Treetop Terrace is a spectacular home! The location is perfect, views are picture perfect, and the home itself is so pretty. Three couples, and we all had our own floor. The house was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The porches are a plus. We enjoyed the sunrise each morning from our bedroom windows! You won't be disappointed in The Treetop Terrace. Thank you to the owners for sharing their home with us.

The house has the most beautiful view! It’s perfect for our family. We’ve been a few times, and love the fall festival at the nearby farm, especially with young children. The only thing I would say is that the power went out, and there wasn’t a single flashlight or candle in the place. It was the early end to a fun night. There was very little communication from the host, and no apologies. That didn’t make us feel great.
4.9
Beautiful and relaxing location! Having coffee on the deck while watching the sun rise started our days off perfectly. The house itself was very clean and tastefully decorated. In addition, the kitchen was well stocked. The owner was super responsive and provided excellent and detailed instructions. We will definitely book this property again in the future!

Beautiful home. So convenient to downtown.
GPS directions were a bit tricky getting there but host had sent details which was very helpful.
We had a great vacation and are thankful we got to enjoy the absolutely spectacular views and location.

The location was awesome along with the views. It did not disappoint. The cabin was great for three families. We felt like we had plenty of room. Deer were everywhere which made the kids day. The owner was quick to respond and very helpful.

We had a wonderful time getting out of the heat in Raleigh and relaxing in the mountains! The views were spectacular! The house was clean and charming! We hope to return next year!

The house and property are beautiful and was a perfect layout for the entire family to have privacy as well as entertainment. The amenities were great. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. We will be back!
4.9
Beautiful view!
Pros:
- View!
- Beautiful house, good floor plan, well decorated.
- Short distance to Ingles grocery store and West Jefferson shops and restaurants. 30 mins into Boone.
- Comfortable beds.
Cons:
- Several maintenance issues (which we reported to owner and are sure will be fixed, but still were issues during our stay): dishwasher leaks, dryer did not heat, sink in bathroom on middle floor clogged.
- Only tool for grill was a hamburger flipper; no tongs or fork
- No mattress pads on beds, just sheet on top of mattress.
- No dish towels; pot holders all soiled.
- Only one washcloth and one bath towel per person (As an example: when the dishwasher leaked, we had to use a bath towel; then to use the bath towel to take a shower, it had to be washed, but the dryer doesn’t work. An extra towel or two would be very helpful.) Also, no bath mats when stepping out of shower/tub (lower and upper floors).

Wonderful property with amazing views!
My family stayed here for the weekend and loved it. The view is incredible, and everything was clean and in great condition. We would definitely stay here again.

This was one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed! The internet doesn't begin to describe the view from every room and expecially the decks! Owner was always on top of every email I sent!
The only drawback was the ride up the steep hill. But we thought the destination was worth it. Thanks again for sharing your beautiful home!

We had a great time! Very clean, access to the house is good, awesome bathrooms, great space!

Treetop Terrace was ideal for adult children and their spouses and husband and myself. An entire floor for each couple. The view is absolutely stunning whether at dawn, dusk or anytime. Beautiful stars. Lots and lots of pics taken. Close to great hiking trails and the Parkway which fit our group. West Jefferson is just down the mountain and has enlarged their restaurant options. Lines were long during peak hours, lunch and dinner, so we chose to cook dinner/cocktails at the mountain house which is well supplied for cooking. We could watch the deer from the house versus the dark, winding roads at night!
We all agreed we would return to Treetop Terrace in a heartbeat.

Fantastic View
We loved the view. The house was decorated very nice. We did have some issues, but I received quick response from the owner’s. I recommend 4 wheel drive. The gravel section of the road is steep and has tight turns. I would not recommend this house for senior adults. There are a lot of stairs. Overall we enjoyed our stay. The view from the house is breath taking.

This is a cozy and well appointed cabin with a remarkable view. We spent most of our time on the porches, all of which had a lovely view. We all had our own private areas in the house. And the 80s video games were a really fun surprise! We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay at Treetop Terrace again.

West Jefferson House
The views from this house are great and there is plenty of room on the outside to enjoy them. There are rooms on every level and accomodating to families with kids. The living area beside the kitchen is tight, but not a big issue for us as we stayed outside most of the time and spread out. Our kids really liked the gameroom with different types of games to enjoy while relaxing. I would come back for sure.

Great layout
We enjoyed spending the long weekend with family. Each family had their own floor which was nice to have our own space. Perfect for 3 families.

Million Dollar Views, Quiet, Zen, Refreshing
House was laid out so that nobody was cramped. Everyone had there own space. Decks, decks and more decks. Plenty of space outside even for the largest gatherings to take in all the views. The only thing we had trouble with was we couldn't get the fireplace to come on and I didn't want to keep bothering the owners. So maybe some instructions for that, the wifi password and bring your own TP. But overall loved it. Thank you!
