How to Stay at a Treehouse Resort

Tips & Warnings

• Staying at a treehouse resort is a very physical, outdoors vacation. It may not be the ideal pick for a person looking for a cushier vacation.

• Some of the treehouses are very high up. The average resort has treehouses that are 10 to 20 feet off the ground.
