Experience a Beautiful Treehouse Cabana Soaking Tub Spa
Looking for a relaxing spa experience in the mountains of North Carolina?! Well, look no further. Lakeview at Fontana is a paradise retreat that boasts beautiful mountain views and lake views. It is located near the Great Smokey Mountains about an hour from Asheville. Here you will feel as though you’ve transported to a quaint European town with a boutique café, outdoor tables, firepits, and more.
The real treat, however, is their Treehouse Cabana Soaking Tub experience. Doesn’t that just sound relaxing?! Their treehouses have a stunning view of the lake below and the surrounding mountains! *insert heart eyes*
I’ve provided everything you need to know about this resort and their unique and magical treehouse soaking experience below:
Experience the Soaking Tubs
Lakeview at Fontana features (2) Treehouse Cabana Soaking Tub that are nestled in the woods and overlooking the lake below. You can reserve one of the treehouse cabins for a Soaking spa experience – it is truly unlike anything you’ve ever experienced! In fact, it’s hard to believe this beautiful paradise is here in NC!
To get to the treehouses, you’ll walk up a short flight of stairs from the parking area, then on a short dirt path through the woods where you will find your treehouse! This means you’ll have full privacy in your treehouse retreat!
The treehouses are equipped with a large soaking tub, lounge seating, robes, towels, and luxury bath soaps. The treehouses also have a small restroom (toilet & sink). Each appointment is 90 minutes long and perfect for solo travelers, couples, or a pair of friends (maximum of 2 guests). The best part about this – the tub is large enough to fit 2 people so you can share your time together! Or, if you’d rather alternative, there is plenty of room to relax in the provided lounge seating.
Things to note: guests must be 18+ years old, guests must be able to walk up stairs and on a short dirt path (not wheelchair accessible), there is no staff present during your 90 minute experience unless you call them, and there is a small chance that your experience could get canceled due to severe inclement weather
My Personal Experience at the Treehouse Cabana Soaking Tub
I recently visited Lakeview at Fontana to experience the Soaking Experience firsthand – and wow, I was completely mesmerized! My boyfriend and I were blown away by the beautiful views in front of us and luxurious accommodations within the treehouse. We immediately jumped in the soaking tub and relaxed with the provided bath salts that smelled of lavender.
On a cool spring day, like the one we had, we opted for a hot soaking bath. This kept us nice and warm, but we also had the option of turning on an electric heater right above the bath if needed! However, if you’re visiting in the hotter months, you can opt for a cooling bath.
You’ll be surprised how quickly 90 minutes can go by when you’re relaxing in your own private Treehouse Cabana Soaking Tub with nothing but beautiful views around you. I could have stayed in this little paradise for hours!
What is Included in the Soaking Experience
Each soaking experience is 90 minutes long and includes the below items:
- 2 Robes for use in the treehouse
- 2 Turkish Towels for use in the treehouse
- Bath Salts & Lotions
- Champagne & Chocolate

What a rustic place and relaxing experience..I wish to visit this place ..dreaming of it
This looks such a lovely, relaxing experience. It’s now in my list for if I go to the states and Fontana.
What an amazing experience! A spa pamper in a treehouse with those views looks so fun and relaxing! I’d love to do this one day. My aunt moved to NC a year ago so maybe when I visit her! Thanks for the great info. 😁
I would love to do this, it sounds so relaxing! I have been wanting to go somewhere with a hot tub for so long. I love that there is a beautiful view included here. I am sure I could do this all day too. I bet the 90 minutes does fly by.
This spot looks awesome! Definitely a great hidden gem to be at. I will need to make my way back to NC soon to go there. 🙂
that hot tub with that view? YES PLEASE! Looks and sounds amazing!
Oh, I love it so much! I just recently visited North Caroline and if I knew about it before I would have done. I am saving this for my next trip, thanks so much for this great and informative post.
NC is one of my favorite getaway spots, so I’m totally adding this to my list of places to check out. I go every summer and fall (minus last year because…Covid), and I’m always looking for fun little hidden gems. Thanks so much for sharing this spot.
Oh my gosh I love this. What a unique experience. I mean, I like the idea of the treehouse on its own, but add in the soaking tub and it’s even more perfect
What a great find! I am definitely going to try to stay here in August when I’ll be in NC!
