Such a nice tucked-away treehouse cabin! We enjoyed the view of the trees pitside the windows and the wraparound deck. We'll definitely stay again next year. (The only complaint would be on our last day, there was no water and we couldn't shower, etc. )

Nestled in the woods in a treehouse

The little treehouse is a sweet stay for a couple. We stayed one night while we visited Ohiopyle for hiking and biking. The hot tub was a wonderful way to end the evening.

Relaxing for sure!

The place was so different in a good way. The hot tub was nice and sitting by a fire at night. We were so relaxed. The only complaint I have was there should be a shelf in the shower for soap and shampoo I had to keep opening the door to get my toiletries! Lol

Wonderful!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the treehouse. The property was as advertised. It was lovely. The hottub was ready for us when we arrived and made for a relaxing trip. We enjoyed dinner at the Braddock Inn nearby. The checkerboard was a nice touch and we enjoyed playing a few rounds. We were even able to walk the grounds a bit and enjoy the unseasonable nice weather. The only thing that I could suggest is to provide more places to hang items and a shelf in the shower for toilettries. Thank you for a wonderful trip. We plan to come back.

A Good Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very cute cabin, good location. It was nice being close to Ohiopyle. The only things that went wrong were how the directions we came in the opposite way so the road was on the right and before it was before the sign to look for so we had to drive down and turn around. The hottub water was a little foggier than it should have been. The cost of a one night stay was a little steep in my opinion, but still a nice place to escape reality for a little but.

Treehouse

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The only complaint I have is that when they said it was nestled in the woods it may have been but there is a well traveled road 100 feet behind a tree house. Building were in eyesight as well they should have put the dimensions of the treehouse before booking at it look bigger than what it seemed upon arrival They should also specified that there is a mini fridge and a freezer

Would have loved to have given it a five star review but couldn't

Overall the property and the idea of being in a tree house was neat, especially while it was snowing it was magically,however it was my spouses birthday wanted to enjoy our weekend away, they weren't calling for a lot of snow, so we keept our reservation. When we got there, nothing was plowed, we couldn't find out entrance nor was anything shoveled, or kept up with. when entering the place it was adorable inside, warm, and very cute. We went to get in the hot tube and the water was very low and smelly not enough chlorine, smelled like mildew. There was no salt or groundskeeper to help with this to keep us from slipping up the stairs to and farm the hot tube, there was an outside firepit would have been neat to use when the snow stopped but nothing was cleared off. Not to be picky but being in a mini vacation you really don't want to have to keep up with these kind of chores like you do at home. There were DVDs but DVD player that we saw make sure you have Netflex and good wifi to connect, and if you love a very soft bed then that bed is for you, there is a VERY soft spot in the middle that sinksakes laying in it so uncomfortable we ended up sleeping side ways on the bed no joke, then to top it off around Midnight the pipes froze leaving us not able to shower, use the bathroom or brush our teeth we called the number around 7am and around 845-9am noone still was there so we decided to leave we went to the gas station to brush out teeth and to use the restroom. We won't be back.

The property is even better than in the photos! We had the entire grounds to ourselves, so we did a little exploring, which is how we found the small creek. Check in was easy, and everything was ready for us when we got there.

A nice getaway

Overall, a great place to stay to get away from the city. Within 20 minutes of hiking, kayaking, and dining, but tucked away enough to not be bothered. It's part of a larger retreat property, so if this place is booked, it's worth checking their other lodging options. Some minor things that could be improved, but it didn't make the stay unenjoyable. The sliding door was a little tricky when opening - didn't always slide super easy. It is a little smaller than we were expecting, but it is a tree house, so we weren't upset with the size and didn't expect much bigger. Thanks for a wonderful weekend, tree house!

Great weekend getaway!

Really wonderful getaway - so relaxing! I would strongly recommend including a map to help in finding the treehouse for check in. There are multiple entrances for the overall “resort” and we drove around searching for close to an hour. Once we called and the weekend on call service hadanagent reach out via text, they helped us find it quickly. But a map or even some detailed instructions when the code for the lock is sent would be very helpful! Otherwise we absolutely loved it and have been recommending it to everyone!
