For Sale $435,000
This mountain cabin retreat is the definition of mountain living. Welcome to Tree Tops, an active vacation rental offered mostly furnished ready for immediate enjoyment or continued income. This isn’t just about buying a mountain retreat, it’s about how you live when you’re here. Mornings start slow on the screened porch with coffee and long-range mountain views. Evenings wind down in the hot tub under the stars or gathered around the fire pit after a day spent outdoors. It’s the kind of setting people look for when they want to truly unplug. Set at nearly 3,000 feet in elevation with a private, end-of-road feel, the home is surrounded by nature and quiet in a way that’s hard to replicate. Inside, you’ll find 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus a downstairs bonus room with an attached garage, offering flexibility for guests, additional living space, or storage. Woodstoves add warmth and character, making the home just as inviting year-round. Whether you continue using it as a successful vacation rental or keep it as your own personal escape, this property offers something more than a place to stay, it offers a place people don’t want to leave. Convenient to everything - less than 10 minutes to downtown Sylva!
