Growing up, did you ever dream of staying in a treehouse? There’s a good chance I thought about it, oh just about every day of my childhood. I wanted to hear the wind whispering through the trees, watch as the stars danced across the night sky, and experience all the magic that treehouses possess.

Secluded Intown Treehouse
The Secluded Intown Treehouse in Atlanta, Georgia has been voted Airbnb’s “#1 Most Wished For Listing Worldwide” in 2016 and 2017!
The treehouse consists of 3 different areas: mind, body, and spirit—all connected by rope bridges. Yep, rope bridges that slightly swing and are covered in the prettiest twinkling lights!
Does it get any more magical than that?
The “mind” room is the perfect place to cozy up with a good book. The “body” room has a bed with wheels—so you can roll it outside and sleep overlooking the stream below. And want to surround yourself with pine trees? Hang out in the “spirit” room, otherwise known as the hammock deck.
You’ve gotta love all those fairy lights!

At the Dreamy Eco Treehouse by 7 Waterfalls, there is no clock, no phones, and very little internet.
It’s the perfect place to escape reality.
In Sukasada, Bali, this treehouse has a cozy queen size bed surrounded by 4 large windows that look out to the valleys of green. It’s so isolated that even many locals don’t know it exists! But despite this, there is still a large bathroom and brand new kitchen.
