If staying home makes you feel like you’re climbing the walls, we suggest climbing a treehouse instead! We’re talking about treehouses you can rent, and if that doesn’t sound like a dream both parents and kids can get behind, we don’t know what does. Views, fresh air, and a perspective most people don’t have every day. Plus, isn’t it nice when the location where you’re staying is a big part of the vacation itself? It can be so much better than the usual white hotel room. Whether you’re a rustic group or prefer more of a resort vibe, these rentals are ready to host your family’s next getaway.
Live out your Swiss Family Robinson dreams at one of these epic vacation rentals for families that will satisfy every kid’s wish to sleep in a treehouse. Kids will love waking up in the trees while parents can enjoy modern conveniences like real bathrooms (YES) and coffeemakers. You can enjoy feeling on top of the world (without missing out on all the comforts you’re used to). Scroll through to find the perfect off-grid adventure with these treehouses you can rent.
