Serenity Escape Treehouse on 14 Acres with easy trails, fire pit and hammock.

Serenity Escape Treehouse at Haven of Hope | 14+ acres near Little River Canyon | Fast Wi-Fi | Vacation, Corporate and Extended Stays | Fire Pit | 1.5 Bathrooms | Fireplace | BBQ Grill | Walking Trails | Creek | Double Hammock | Picnic Table | Dog Friendly | Hosts up to 7 Guests

Named Serenity Escape Treehouse, this treehouse offers a serenity escape on the private 14+ acre Haven of Hope retreat near Little River Canyon National Preserve. Explore waterfalls, parks, shops, and restaurants. Relax by the fireplace with a cup of coffee and enjoy views through a canopy of trees. Deer and turkeys are spotted often near the creek! There are two easy walking trails near this Treehouse - each perfect for picnics on the ground and access to a swing-for-two in the woods! One trail leads to a rippling brook that runs through the property. Renew, refresh, and be restored!

Not long after you turn onto the private road (one-lane-only so descending/exiting vehicles should yield to incoming/ascending vehicles and back up until there is space to pass) that winds through the 14+ acre retreat called Haven of Hope, you will see Serenity Escape Treehouse on your right. You have a private driveway and parking area. 2 cars max. A smaller car can park directly underneath the treehouse. Don't block the main private road, because continuing on the private road, you will pass two walking trails - Rippling Brook Walking Trail on left and Lost and Found Walking Trail on right. You will then see Peaceful Hideaway Treehouse on your left (also available - sleeps 6), and Happy Glamper RV (also available - sleeps 2) and the homeowner's cabin is located at the end of the private road at the top of the mountain.

Beside the parking area, there are stairs leading up to the Treehouse entrance from parking. When you enter the Treehouse, you will know your peaceful retreat has begun as you are surrounded by that familiar knotty pine wood on each wall. From every window on each of the two stories, you will see refreshing views through a canopy of trees.

The primary bedroom on the main floor boasts beautiful window views and a thermostat-controlled electric fireplace, and there is a small Roku TV in the corner. There are 2 chairs in the room that may be added to the dining space when there are 6 guests. For the queen bed, there is a 12" memory foam mattress and new, quilted bedding for your rest and relaxation. An extra blanket, vacuum, portable high chair (if needed), and box fan can be found in the closet.

A bathroom is directly across the hall from the main bedroom with a full tub/shower combo and a double-sink vanity. There is a large frosted window to provide privacy but allow lots of daylight during the day. There is a stackable washer/dryer and ironing board with an iron available in the bathroom for your convenience.

Moving into the main living area, you will appreciate the sight of a leather sofa and loveseat, as well as another chair and ottoman. The coffee table is multi-functional and the top can be raised to table height if desired. There is plenty of room for your family to enjoy this space. There are board games, puzzles, books, and reading information about Lookout Mountain in Alabama. On cool mornings, you will enjoy the gas log fireplace that is thermostat-controlled. For movie nights in, there is a flat screen 55" HD Roku television, and highspeed Wi-Fi is available so you can stream your own favorite subscriptions.

Directly next to the living room area is the dining area. There is comfortable seating for up to six (2 additional chairs are kept in the primary bedroom). The bench at the farm table has additional storage as the top can be lifted.

From the dining area, look out through the glass-paned double doors to the covered balcony area. There is a gas grill for your grilling needs, and BBQ tools are kept in a kitchen drawer. On the balcony, you will enjoy capturing scenes of nature from the height of the treehouse. Native plants and a variety of wildlife can be seen in the morning as you enjoy that first cup of coffee. Listen close for the footsteps of deer that run close to this Treehouse frequently.

Close to the Treehouse, you will notice a brick fire pit designed with your retreat in mind. Take the private road to the top of the hill (owner’s home away from home), and feel free to take some chopped firewood as needed so that your family can make s’more memories. Extendable roasters are located in a kitchen drawer for your convenience, and “Rim of the Canyon Café and General Store” is less than 2 miles from the property and has s’more supplies and lots of other goodies for your retreat! Close to the fire pit, you will notice a double hammock for even more relaxing moments on your retreat, and there is a picnic table for your outdoor dining enjoyment.

Back in the Treehouse, you will find a well-equipped kitchen with a refrigerator (and ice maker), stove, microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, electric kettle, blender, cooking pots, can opener, pans and utensils, dishes, drinking glasses, eating utensils, cooking spices, coffee mugs, and more. Our hope is that your retreat at the treehouse cabin will provide you with welcoming home-away-from-home vibes.

In the living area, there is a beautiful, wooden spiral staircase leading up to the loft bedroom. There is a small desk and office chair if a designated workspace is required, and Wi-Fi is available. There are two queen beds with 10" Dreamer, memory foam mattresses serve to help every guest rest well. There is also a cozy reading nook with a twin size, memory foam mattress, soft bedding, and a remote-controlled reading light. A half bathroom adjoins the loft bedroom, with a sink and toilet. Through the loft windows, be sure to check out the breathtaking views from even greater heights :)

Perfect Getaway
This home was the perfect place to stay for our family who enjoys privacy. This treehouse is tucked away in the woods surrounded by nature. The interior was so cozy and we felt right at home. The communication with the owner was superb. We will be staying here again when we come back to Fort Payne.

Great cabin escape
We booked our stay last minute because we were in need of a get away. From the initial booking, communication was established and the information provided to us made us more excited to go. The location was tucked in the woods and even though there was another cabin like ours near, it was super quiet and cozy! Very clean, loved the snacks and coffee that was provided, and overall felt at home. Truly wish we could stay a whole week vs a short weekend!! We are DEFINITELY planning on coming back!!

Home Away From Home
We really enjoyed our stay at Serenity. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed. Hospitality is not dead. This place is so clean and it had everything we needed. We stayed for 4 nights and we took our dog, Remi, with us. We hiked and swam in Desoto Falls, we hiked Little River Canyon and swam in Hippie Hole, we saw Ruby Falls and Rock City in Chattanooga, and we even captured fireflies on the beautiful property. Even a rainy day was made better at this place. Misti is a great and attentive hostess. We are so grateful we found this place and we will be back.

Clean and easy to find
We enjoyed our stay (booked last minute), easy communication with Misty and got the questions answered within minutes. Very quick response! The drive to the tree-house was easy to find and it was really quiet. The house does shake a little if someone walked up/down the stairs, and if you are not used to it it could bother you maybe. But we were fine :) The porch is unfortunately way too small. Wished it would have been bigger. It's full with the 2 chairs and the grill :/ the trails on the property are very short; maybe 30 ft and 100ft, just for a short morning stroll… But: close by to great parks and nature! The ice-cream place nearby is fabulous and you a Dollar General is also close by for basics. Walmart and another grocery store are in Fort Payne, 15 minutes away. We had a very nice Lunch at the Hatters Cafe! Thank you Misty

Relaxing weekend getaway
My husband and I stayed at the Serenity Escape for a much needed weekend getaway. It was all we could have ever hoped for! I loved that our fur child, Lucy, could tag along for the fun! The cabin was well stocked with everything you could ever need and things that a lot of times I don’t think to bring along that I end up needing! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED the Gobena coffee that was so kindly provided for us, I will be ordering some for myself at home! It was a cold weekend so we enjoyed using the fire pit and making s’mores too. The owners were so kind and I loved the personal connections before, during, and after our stay. It really makes a difference that they are so attentive and check in with you to make sure you are enjoying your stay. This was a lovely home away from home vacation experience and we can’t wait to come back!

Location is easy to find and close enough to Ft Payne that you're not "stuck"; the house was spotless and inviting, and it's surrounded by a gorgeous plot of land to explore. Hosts are friendly and easy to contact. A great experience overall.

Perfect getaway!
My family thoroughly enjoyed staying at Serenity Treehouse. Everything was nice and clean and so accessible. It was a much needed escape and we will definitely be booking this property again. We loved visiting the nearby Little River Falls and even drove to Pirates Bay Waterpark one day. We had so much fun on this trip and can't wait to visit again!
