Tree House Luxury Stay

Perched high in the majestic arms of a 150 year old Burr White Oak tree. This cozy 1200 square foot, seven-room house not only has breathtaking views it also has enchanting and delightful surprises befitting of a fairytale. Climb 40 feet up onto the Observation Tower, where a telescope waits for you, ready to scan the night sky, and reveal the panorama of the heavens -- overlooking 500 acres of natural splendor right next door. Step into the hot, bubbling jets of the jacuzzi, or warm caress of the rain shower, and restore your spirits by soothing your muscles, melting away any residual tensions of the day. Get a restful sleep in one of our soft beds. In the morning, pad around on in-floor radiant heated floors (so cozy during winter-time.) Or enjoy your morning coffee on one of four outside decks. And don’t forget to solve the mystery of the Treehouse, that awaits your discovery within its wood beamed walls. This treehouse was custom designed by its architect with three dimensional chess in mind. Artisan architectural details are found throughout. Crystal chandeliers bedeck its high ceilings, and marble countertops grace the elegant, fully appointed kitchen. (A surround sound system helps set the mood for those special dinners in the dining nook.) One of two fireplaces adds luxurious touches to the primary bedroom with a queen bed, and hideaway bed in the secret room, along with a jacuzzi and rain shower in the primary bath, as well as a second bathroom in the secret room. Perfect for honeymooners, couples, business/corporate overnights, solo travelers and families with children over twelve years old. These are only a few of the many luxury details in this spectacular vacation spot must-see. Spend your days snuggled up beside the fireplace of your choice, while enjoying the panoramic views. You can stream your favorite movies and shows with Broadband Wi-Fi throughout the house. Come down for a leisurely walk around the grounds, and stop by to visit and feed the goats and chickens that call Hope Glen Farm their home in the corral of this historic farmstead. Bring your stress levels down and your heart rate up by walking over to Washington County Cottage Grove Park Reserve, just steps away, and answer its call to explore over 550 acres of fields and forests. Go hiking and biking down its trails, geocaching the hills and ravines for hidden treasures, or spend the afternoon fishing and kayaking in the lakes. And don’t let cooler temperatures keep you from discovering the pristine natural beauty of winter! Winter activities include cross country skiing and snowshoeing on the blankets of snow. Breathe deeply of the crisp Minnesota winter air -- truly one of life’s great pleasures. Plus, only a ten minute drive brings you to nearby Afton Alps in Afton State Park offering downhill skiing and snowboarding. For clarity, the Treehouse has 2 private bedrooms: Bedroom 1 is has a queen bed. Bedroom 2 has a bedroom with standard sofa bed with attached half bathroom, which is the secret room a must find. Give yourself the gift of this luxurious enchanting TreeHouse Suite in the treetops, for a enchanting vacation experience you'll never forget. Something to write home about!
