This Treehouse Airbnb in North Carolina Is The Perfect Spot For Leaf Peeping

Given the choice, I will always choose fall/winter over spring/summer. The spring blooms are always a breath of fresh air, but I would much rather be bundled up in cooler temperatures than sweltering in summer. Soon, fall will be around the corner, which means it’s time to start planning your autumn adventures. I’m a big leaf peeper, and truly, this might be my favorite time of year! If you’re also waiting patiently for the seasons to change, then save this Airbnb in North Carolina.

This treehouse Airbnb is truly peak fall vibes. Camping tends to conjure up images of summer, but I think fall is the better time to go camping. The weather is better, the bugs are at bay, and the leaves begin to change. While I’m not one to pitch a tent and sleep on the ground, I do appreciate weekends where I strip away some of life’s luxuries and plug into a natural setting. 

This is where glamping really has its perks. Glamping is a hybrid between traditional camping and staying in a cabin. You get the benefits of staying in a cabin (a bed, shelter, electricity, etc) while still enjoying a variation of traditional camping. 

This treehouse in North Carolina is the perfect place to take in the fall foliage. It’s located on a 125-acre forest that backs up into the Pisgah National Forest. It’s secluded, it’s scenic, it’s everything you want it to be. 

Plus, it’s a treehouse! This is the dream. Your inner child will be thrilled!

The cabin has a queen-sized bed and large windows to let in those dreamy views. Imagine waking up to this view! Since this is a glamping-style Airbnb, you’ll need to bring your own towels, bedding, pillows, and blankets, just like you would if you were camping. 

There is a cooler with ice to keep food and drinks, plus a propane camp stove for outdoor cooking. Solar generators allow you to charge cell phones, but keep in mind that this is an off-grid cabin. There is no Wi-Fi, and the cabin is lit via battery-operated string lights. 

If you get your timing right and stay here during peak fall foliage, it’s incredible. Of course, you’ll want to explore the region while you’re here, and the famous Blue Ridge Parkway is only four miles away! This is one of the most scenic road trips in North Carolina, especially in the fall. Seeing those mountains painted with oranges, ambers, reds, and yellows is a bucket list item for many!

Visitors planning to stay in this off-grid cabin will need a 4-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicle to reach the treehouse. It’s in a very secluded spot, which is nice for a weekend getaway, but those secluded landscapes can be tricky to get to if you don’t have the right vehicle for the job.
