Treehouse Wedding Venue

For those living in or around East Tennessee, Glamping Retro is the ultimate treehouse wedding venue, just waiting to be discovered.

Woodland Location Near Pisgah National Forest

For a venue that allows you to feel as though you’re escaping to nature to get away from it all, Glamping Retro is surprisingly accessible. It is conveniently located just a 15-minute drive from downtown Erwin, Tennessee; a 30-minute drive from Johnson City, Tennessee; and a 50-minute drive from Asheville, North Carolina. Nestled in the mountains, this site is perfect for a day trip or weekend getaway.

At Glamping Retro, you can tie the knot under the trees just a stone’s throw from the lush and historic Pisgah National Forest. George W. Vanderbilt once owned this land and it was once part of the Biltmore Estate. Now, Pisgah is home to more than 500,000 acres of old-growth, hardwood forest and is considered the cradle of forestry in the United States.

The rugged beauty of the forest, featuring jagged peaks, lush valleys, sweeping vistas, magnificent waterfalls, and hundreds of miles of scenic hiking trails, has inspired authors, poets, and songwriters for generations. Located in the same region and tucked away just a mile from the Appalachian Trail, Glamping Retro draws inspiration from these same influences, creating a setting that allows visitors to tap into the history and magic that have lingered over this area for generations.

If you have been dreaming of a destination wedding that allows you to run away to the mountains and bask in nature, this is it. And if you’re worried that a woodland wedding might require you to “rough it,” never fear. That’s where glamping comes in.

Round tables with green tablecloths, white chairs, and orange runners capture a glamping retro vibe, decorated with small vases of flowers and greenery. Wavy, light-colored drapes and softly lit event decor set the inviting scene.

Make no mistake: Glamping Retro chose its name intentionally. This is no backwoods campsite wedding venue. Glamping Retro offers a full-on luxury experience, complete with all the amenities of glamping.

Glamping Retro Packages

It is essential to note that Camping Retro does not offer onsite catering or bar services as part of their wedding packages. They do, however, provide lists of recommended vendors to help facilitate that aspect of your special day. This eliminates any lingering concerns you might have about finding caterers willing to service a woodland wedding.

One thing to love about Glamping Retro is the flexibility of their wedding packages. For exclusive use of the entire venue, they make accommodations for both the size of the wedding party and attendees. This includes allowances for micro, mid-sized, etc. They also offer both single-day and multi-day destination wedding options. They even have a charming little Elopement Package!

While you will need to inquire directly for pricing, as packages are adjusted based on both your unique needs and whether your wedding will take place during peak or non-peak months, the rates for Glamping Retro packages are more than reasonable. On the low end, they may run anywhere from $1,800-$2,500. On the high end, you might spend upwards of $6,650. All of this, of course, depends on the size of your party and other variables.
