Fall asleep in the treetops as you sway in the breeze in one of these unique treehouse rentals during your next epic outdoor adventure.
Treehouse vacation rentals have taken the US by storm and offer travelers a unique lodging option that’s equal parts comfortable and exciting. Typically built using wooden stilts (or actual living trees) as supports, treehouses are essentially tiny homes lifted off the ground.
There are luxurious treehouses that don’t miss any amenities, glamping-style treehouses that offer a blend of comfort and nature, and simpler options that retain the fun of actual camping. No matter what your preference, there’s nothing quite like living out your childhood fantasy in a home perched high (or not so high) in the leaves.
If you’re itching to try something new, here are some of the most exciting treehouses rentals in the US.
