Places to Stay in Mandeville, Louisiana Places to Stay in Clarkesville, GA Treehouse Cabins in Eureka Springs, Arkansas

by Robert Kay; Updated October 05, 2017 
Eureka Springs, an Arkansas resort town surrounded by the majesty of the Ozark Mountains, has attracted tourists since the early 1880s, first because of the reputed healing powers of its mineral springs and now thanks to a historic downtown with numerous restaurants, shops, art galleries and charming inns. Another lodging option the city is known for is treehouse cabins. These cottages, perched high above some of the region's most scenic surroundings, provide modern amenities with a bird's-eye view.

Treehouse Cottages

Eureka Springs' original Treehouse Cottages -- built in 1990 on a wooded hillside less than a mile from downtown -- are aptly named Cedar Shade, Hidden Oak and Hideaway. The trio of cabins sit on wooden poles more than 20 feet off the ground amid a canopy of hardwoods and grounds that include a koi pond and waterfall. For those who prefer two feet on the ground, a two-story, ground-level cottage is also available. "Hidden Forest," set in a nearby secluded pine forest, provides guests with four more Treehouse Cottages: Bungalow, Whispering Wood, Towering Pines and Lofty Lookout. The Hidden Forest site has a hiking trail that winds to a cave and natural springs. Each treehouse sleeps two and includes luxury linens, a fireplace, oversized hot tub, antique furnishings, kitchenette and wraparound deck.

Oak Crest Cottages & Treehouses

Oak Crest Cottages & Treehouses also has two locations, including one less than a mile from downtown Eureka Springs that has three chateau-style treehouses with hot tubs, fireplaces, kitchenettes, decks, cable TV and complimentary Wi-Fi. The second Oak Crest site, three miles away, is home to several additional treehouse styles, including Santa Fe, Manhattan, Central Park, Paris and Venice. Some treehouses even have a castle design accessible by a drawbridge, along with all the luxury amenities of the main location. Oak Crest's treehouse cabins sleep two adults and have a minimum stay of two or three nights, depending on the season.

The Grand Treehouse Resort

This resort, nestled between the Treehouse Cottages and Oak Crest within walking distance of downtown, has six treehouses, including some with tree branches actually growing through them: Big Pine, Cedar Manor, Royal Oak, Sanctuary, Swiss Chalet I and Swiss Chalet II. The six elevated cabins sleep two each and include kitchenettes, wet bars, gas fireplaces, hot tubs, heated towel racks, stained-glass windows, luxury bed linens and free Wi-Fi. A stop for a trolley that serves the downtown area is directly across the street.

Other "Treehouse" Options

Eureka Springs has two other treehouse lodging options, if in name only. The Woods Treehouse Resort has what it calls "The Twin Treehouses," although the side-by-side cottages sit on a stone foundation, not in a tree or atop wooden poles. The cabins are separated by a waterfall and covered porch, with each side sleeping two and including kitchenettes, wet bars, large hot tubs, bay windows with wooded views, luxury linens, stone fireplaces and Wi-Fi. Several ground-level bungalows are also available. The Treehouse Village at All Seasons Luxury Properties has a group of elevated cabins that sit on stone pillars. The cabins lie in front of a wooded reserve with hiking trails and a creek. Back decks provide up-close views of the preserve. Each cabin has luxury linens, a hot tub and free Wi-Fi.
