Treehouse Point in Fall City, Washington is one of the most sought-after treehouse destinations in the United States. Built by renowned treehouse architect Pete Nelson (star of Animal Planet's "Treehouse Masters"), this collection of six unique treehouses offers an unforgettable escape just 30 miles east of Seattle.
About Treehouse Point
Each treehouse at Treehouse Point is handcrafted with stunning attention to detail, suspended 20 feet above the ground in old-growth forest along the Raging River. The Ponderosa Treehouse, named after the majestic Ponderosa pines, features floor-to-ceiling windows, a cozy wood-burning stove, and a private deck where you can listen to the river below while surrounded by towering trees.
What to Expect
Accommodations: The Ponderosa sleeps 2 guests in a queen bed. While the treehouse doesn't have a private bathroom (you'll use the shared bathhouse with heated floors), the experience of sleeping among the treetops more than makes up for it. Breakfast is included and served in the main lodge.
Pricing: Expect to pay $275-$375 per night depending on the season. Book directly through treehousepoint.com for the best rates, or find it on Airbnb Plus.
