Treehouses and Tree House Plans
If you are looking for that extra-special
tree house, you are sure to find some great ideas here! From a treeless tree house to
treehouse kits - here are some of the best tree houses around!
|
OK...it's not exactly a treehouse, but it is treehouse-like. The
Up, Up and Away Playhouse from Spirit Elements is a great playhouse
made of kiln-dried pine. It is panelized for easy construction and made
from very high-quality materials! It comes with a 2' porch, and is
raised 4' off the ground. |

The Believer Custom Tree House is truly incredible! It comes with
its own tree! Now you can have a real treehouse in your back yard, no
matter what size you trees are, or if you have any at all! Completely
hand-made, the Believer has a treehouse atop of its own hollowed-out
log. Enter through the hand-carved tree trunk door and climb up into
your own imagination! The Believer’s whimsical design is perfect for
inspiring endless hours of play. Although listed under "Playhouse kits"
on the website, the Believer Custom Tree House actually comes to you
delivered in only 2 pieces - a completely assembled club house, and the
log base. Unbelievable!

Not to be outdone, next is The
Bungaloo Custom Tree House. A fabulous treehouse that also comes
with its own tree, the Bungaloo is actually built on a recycled
log base - a real fallen oak, pine or eucalyptus tree that has been
hollowed out with a chainsaw - log door included! The average size of
each log base is 4' in diameter by 6 1/2' tall between 2,500 and 3,500
lbs. That's when you can really use the free shipping deal! |

The Magic Mansion Treehouse may very well be the ULTIMATE treehouse!
It, too, comes with its own tree, just as the Bungaloo Custom Tree
House. In addition, it features a rear swing, balcony, curved slide,
roof dormer window, tire swing, monkey bars, log window, and a rust
accent package. Due to its size and weight, the Magic Mansion ships on a
flatbed trailer in two pieces: the clubhouse and the log. To unload
these pieces, you must supply heavy equipment such as a forklift or
crane. How's that for a treehouse?! |

A Treehouse of Your Own - This book is awe-inspiring to browse
through, as it features breathtaking photos of amazing tree houses, many
featuring rope bridges, spiral staircases, arched windows and doors, and
verandas. Harris recognizes that every tree—and potential tree
dweller—is unique, so rather than offering sets of fixed plans, he takes
a modular approach to building a "treetop retreat," featuring chapters
on foundations, roofing, windows and doors, railings, ladders and
stairs, and rope bridges. |
