About this property
Designer A-Frame Treehouse with hot tub on river
Escape to a one-of-a-kind luxury A-frame treehouse at Uncommon Accommodations, a boutique collection of unique stays on a 14-acre riverside retreat along Vermont's beautiful Lamoille River, just minutes from Stowe and Smugglers' Notch.
Perched among the trees and reached by a private footbridge, this architect-designed A-frame offers the feeling of a secluded treehouse without sacrificing modern comfort. Thoughtfully designed by local architect Raymond Boutin and handcrafted by master builder Todd Miller, the home features warm maple veneer walls, exposed Douglas fir beams, Brazilian hardwood floors, and expansive windows that immerse you in the surrounding forest.
Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen, full bathroom, cozy loft bedroom, indoor fireplace, roll-down projector for movie nights, high-speed Starlink Wi-Fi, and a private deck where you can relax beneath the trees with the sounds of the river below.
Your stay includes access to our collection of shared resort-style amenities designed to make your getaway truly memorable. Soak in the year-round six-person hot tub, unwind in the treehouse barrel sauna, prepare dinner in the outdoor kitchen featuring a BBQ grill, pizza oven, sink, prep space, and covered dining area, or gather around the riverside fire pit as the sun sets.
Spend your days exploring more than 2,000 feet of Lamoille River frontage, swimming in crystal-clear swimming holes, discovering nearby Dog's Head Falls, or wandering wooded trails throughout the property. Whether you're visiting for fall foliage, skiing, hiking, mountain biking, or simply a quiet weekend away, the A-frame provides a peaceful and unforgettable retreat.
Although your treehouse is completely private, it is part of Uncommon Accommodations, a thoughtfully designed collection of unique stays that share the outdoor amenities. The expansive property offers plenty of room to spread out, and the shared spaces are typically quiet and uncrowded.
Perfect for couples, honeymooners, and anyone seeking a memorable escape, this luxury treehouse combines exceptional design, boutique hospitality, and Vermont's natural beauty into an experience unlike anywhere else.

The A frame is like a studio loft in the trees. The views are amazing. We loved the sauna and river plunge followed by the hot-tub. The area has lots of short and long hikes to choose from. We plan to come back for longer next time!

So happy you enjoyed our treehouse and took full advantage of the sauna, river plunge, and hot tub! The hiking around here really is fantastic, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for a longer stay. Safe travels and see you next time!
A Frame Treehouse was the perfect place. Good communication from host, easy to get to, very clean & nice. The best was sitting out on the deck in the evening with the pit fit on, drinking wine and watching the river.

Thanks for sharing your experience, Rebecca. I’m glad our communication and directions made your stay smooth and that you found our house clean and comfortable. It’s wonderful you enjoyed relaxing on the deck by the river—hope to host you again soon!
Amazing property, so cozy and relaxing! The host Tyler was very friendly and communicative, very welcoming! Will definitely return and recommend to anyone, just the best getaway!

Amazing stay! The cabin was so cute and everything was so clean. the host had everything you could think of. He was also super attentive and checked in throughout our stay to make sure everything was up to par, and responded quickly to questions we had. Will definitely book again in the near future!
This is a lovely property! One of a kind with all the amenities you could hope for. The location is outstanding. We rode the LVT which is quite convenient to the property. One small caution, spiral staircase to second floor bedroom can be challenging for older folks!
We really enjoyed our stay in the snow Dec 13th-Dec 15th! The A frame has a wonderful feel to it and all the amenities you could ever want for year around fun! Cozy warm nights spent by the fireplace sipping our favorite wine and eating local cheeses. Host was a top notch communicator. The only thing I would consider changing is the check in time to 3-4pm so we can arrive with daylight in the winter time and a checkout closer to 11am would allow for more time and a more "fair stay" for the price.

About the host
Your host
We’re Vermont-based hosts who love creating unique places for people to unplug, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. Our properties are designed to be memorable stays — cozy, thoughtfully built, and connected to nature — whether you’re visiting for adventure, relaxation, or a little of both. We enjoy hiking, skiing, traveling, and discovering special places ourselves, and we try to bring that same sense of care and attention to every guest experience. Our goal is simple: provide clean, comfortable, one-of-a-kind spaces and be responsive, friendly hosts so you can focus on enjoying your trip.
Why they chose this property
We chose this spot because it captures some of the best parts of northern Vermont in one place — mountain views, river access, and easy proximity to Stowe and the Green Mountains. The area feels peaceful and tucked into nature, yet it’s just a short drive to great hiking, skiing, local breweries, and the small-town charm of Johnson village. What we love most is how the neighborhood balances quiet seclusion with adventure: you can spend the day exploring trails or the mountains and come back to relax by the river under the stars. It’s a perfect home base for experiencing Vermont year-round.
What makes this property unique
Our A-frame is designed to feel like a true Vermont escape — a cozy, modern cabin surrounded by nature, with big windows that bring the outdoors in. The architecture itself is part of the experience, with soaring ceilings, warm wood finishes, and a comfortable, thoughtfully designed interior that feels both rustic and refined. Guests also enjoy shared amenities like river access and a hot tub, adding a touch of relaxation after a day of exploring the Green Mountains or nearby Stowe. What really sets the property apart is the balance of seclusion and convenience: it feels private and immersed in nature, yet it’s close to some of the best outdoor recreation, dining, and small-town charm Vermont has to offer.
