The Space

The Tiny Treepod was designed and built with the vision for simple yet comfortable living that supports a deep connection with nature and a smaller footprint on the planet. The meticulously designed 315 square foot Tiny Treepod and 100 square foot bathhouse (just steps away from the Treepod) makes use of every inch and lacks for nothing.  The Treepod offers a unique nature immersion experience in the tree surrounded nook in the side of the hill with winter view of the nearby mountains. The deck is equipped with a hot tub, gas fire pit, gas grill, and seating areas to relax and enjoy nature in. Below the deck, you'll have access to hanging chairs and a second gas fire pit. Read a good book, take a nap, or enjoy the view of the trees while relaxing on the outdoor patio furniture or relax in the hot tub after a nice day of hiking. You can expect to see birds, deer, and other small wildlife about while you enjoy the outdoors.  

The Tiny Treepod itself was built with all the essentials and packaged into a cozy, comfortable, and retreat-like space. With an emphasis on sustainability, the Treepod is powered from the nearby community solar garden and guests can reduce waste by recycling on the property. A well equipped kitchen,  unique high end bathroom (just steps away from the Treepod), working/dining area, and a comfy sleeping space with cozy sheets are a few of the features. Use the high speed wifi to watch a movie on your laptop or tablet while relaxing after a day of exploring. A coffee and tea bar, along with high end shampoos/soaps are just a few of the other amenities provided.  

Guest Access

Guests will have PRIVATE access to the whole Tiny Treepod, the bathhouse, and the patio area with hot tub, grill, patio furniture, and 2 fire tables.

Just a 27-minute drive from the sustainer is Elk Knob State Park with miles of hiking, biking, jogging, exploring, and a stunning view at the top. Appalachian Ski Mtn, the Blue Ridge Parkway, ziplining, golfing, hunting, and countless hiking trails are within 30 minutes of the property.

Other Things to Note:

LOCATION: The Treepod is located on a 4 acre plot of land with another tiny house rentals that can be booked separately or, depending on availability, can be rented together.

Also to note, the Treepod is located on a hill above a very small neighborhood and will be able to see couple of homes below in the distance.   

ACCESSIBILITY: To reach the Tiny Treepod, you must climb up the steps from the parking spot and follow the approximately 100 foot pathway to your tiny destination.   

HEATING/COOLING: The Tiny Treepod is equipped with a minisplit for heating and cooling as well as dedicated small additional heaters. However, please be aware that the Pod is not insulated like regular homes and will not heat and cool as well. Please be prepared with warm clothing in the winter!
