Glamping Style by Julie Holland
Tree houses are not just for kids. A "glamping" treehouse getaway is the perfect escape for friends, families, and couples alike. Reconnect with nature; take a break from social media (when there's no service, you have no choice!); enjoy a cozy space that speaks to your inner child. These are the two treehouse getaways that I recently enjoyed:
1) Trillium Treehouse (Linden, VA):
This is listed on airbnb and is a legit treehouse, built into a forest, high off the ground, with a whimsical interior. Be prepared to use a porta-potty and do some ladder climbing. Oh, and there's no electricity so enjoy the LED and fairy lights. Be prepared to hold off on instagramming 'til you leave, because there's little to no service (I actually emailed to ask if there was wifi before I realized there's no electricity haha), but it turned out to be a refreshing factor. It's located near the adorable town of Front Royal, so that adds a fun stop to the trip. If you want to have a movie night, make sure your computer is fully charged before you go, and pick up a DVD from a local redbox.
2) Treehouse on Stilts (Charlottesville,
VA): this house is also listed on airbnb and is less of a treehouse and more of a house on stilts. It looks like a cute log cabin inside, with a ladder up to the the loft area. It has a regular bathroom, but it's located outside of the house, just around the corner from the door (so no climbing down to the ground). This treehouse has electricity and wifi and is a short drive to downtown Charlottesville.
