Across the rope bridges on one side is the antique sitting room, while the other way lies the hammock deck.
The bathroom is in the basement of the main house, roughly a 30-second walk away. Amenities in general are a bit basic here, given the treehouse structure. You do get fans and a mattress warmer to help with the temperature, but a microwave and Wi-Fi are really the only other creature comforts.

Treetop Hideaway Near Lookout Mountain

You’ll find plenty of quirks and character in this eclectic treehouse, from its old-fashioned windows to the bathroom floor made of pennies. The treehouse is separated into two stories, with a sleeping space in the little loft area. While there’s just a queen bed up there, the rental can host up to three people, thanks to the sofa bed downstairs. Besides the sofa and living space, the lower level has a kitchenette and bathroom.
You might expect a treehouse stay to be all about the ambiance and natural surroundings, and that’s certainly the big draw here.
