The Treehouse: Unique "Off the Grid" Cabin on the Lost River with stunning views

Escape to The Treehouse – A Secluded Off-the-Grid Retreat at French Lick Farms

The Treehouse is the crown jewel of French Lick Farms, offering a one-of-a-kind, off-the-grid experience for those looking to disconnect, unwind, and reconnect with nature. Nestled among the trees, this solar- and propane-powered two-story cabin provides a peaceful and serene getaway, complete with dual-level wraparound decks and stunning views of the Lost River, surrounding woods, and neighboring farm.

Rustic Comfort with Essential Amenities

The first floor features an RV-style kitchen and bath, equipped with a propane-powered hot water heater, refrigerator, and gas stove. The dinette conveniently converts into a second bed for additional sleeping space. Step outside to the spacious outdoor patio, where you’ll find a large BBQ grill, picnic table, and firepit—perfect for campfire stories under the stars.

The second story is designed for relaxation, featuring a queen-size bed, desk, and closet. A Kenwood DDX3X sound system with Bose outdoor speakers allows you to Bluetooth connect your phone or enjoy XM radio while taking in the breathtaking views.

True Off-the-Grid Experience with Modern Conveniences
• Solar-Powered with Optional Generator – While the lights, kitchen appliances, and water heater operate on propane and solar power, an ultra-quiet generator is available to run the kitchen and bedroom AC units for warmer months.
• Cozy Fireplace & Outdoor Heating – A gas fireplace with an automatic thermostat keeps the cabin warm on chilly nights, while a potbelly wood-burning stove on the second-story deck adds extra comfort. A firepit with pre-cut wood is also available for the ultimate outdoor experience.
• USB Charging Outlets – Multiple USB ports allow for easy phone charging via solar power and batteries. There is one electrical outlet inside the Treehouse, which requires the generator to be started for operation.

Unplug & Reconnect with Nature

The Treehouse is a true digital detox, offering no Wi-Fi, cable TV, or reliable cell service—the perfect escape for those wanting to disconnect from the outside world. A TV with a DVD player and a selection of movies is available for entertainment, but there is no cable service on the property.

Is The Treehouse Right for You?

✔ Ideal for guests looking for an off-the-grid adventure, nature lovers, and those seeking peace and solitude
✔ Perfect for couples, solo travelers, or small groups who enjoy rustic charm with modern comforts
✘ Not ideal for those who require high-speed internet, cable TV, or a fully connected workspace

If you need a full-service stay with modern amenities, consider booking our Lodge at French Lick Farms, which offers Wi-Fi, full kitchens, and more conveniences. Feel free to ask any questions to ensure The Treehouse is the perfect fit for your stay!

About the host

Hosted by Sherry Baker

Host profile image
Welcome to French Lick Farms!! We are a farm stay getaway, located on 80+ acres just 10 minutes from French Lick in the heart of Southern Indiana.

Sherry and Joe purchased the property in May of 2021 when they were looking for a slower pace to connect with nature. With intentions of making this a vacation home, they quickly realized this place was too special to keep to themselves. They renamed it French Lick Farms and embarked on creating what you see today.

The property had been empty from guests for almost two years due to COVID and needed some serious TLC. Renovations started with replacing the roof, all the dry rotted wood, patching leaks and shoring up the structure of the building. Everything else was cosmetic including new paint, mattresses, bedding, sheets, towels, lighting and decor.

While they have done a facelift there are still so many projects th do but customers were calling and looking to visit the property so they opened to guests in mid-July 2021.

We hope you plan to visit soon and continue to visit year after year! We truly appreciate you trusting us with you vacation!

Sherry & Joe
