Treehouse Cottages

For the first part of our Honeymoon we wanted a relaxing time where we could catch up on sleep and unwind. This place was absolutely perfect for what we needed.
The house sways ever so slightly as a subtle reminder we are in a treehouse.
I built a «treehouse» for my kids a few years ago and consider myself knowledgeable on the subject.
How the heck did they bring the heart shaped jacuzzi tub up here? How was the electrical and plumbing installed?
This place is special. The room is clean, has a small kitchen, and a queen size comfortable bed. The room gets very hot in the afternoon sun, but that is a trade off for the massive viewing window.
This is a Holiday Inn for lumberjacks or nature hippies.

Drove two hours today to look at the property for next years vacation and the owner wouldn’t show us.

Only a few places could instantly relax me and take me away from the hustle and bustle of my people filled, busy life. It’s the morning after and I am still laying in the Whispering Wood Treehouse’s huge, soft, eat-​you-​alive bed. When we arrived we were greeted by humming birds and red buds. My husband made a delicious surf and turf dinner on the grill while I read on the balcony over looking the trees. We were the only people on the planet! We enjoyed a beautiful fire while soaking in the huge jacuzzi tub.

We stayed for 3 nights mid November. Sunday through Wednesday. Best time to visit eureka springs. No crowds, 60 degree weather! Every restaurant we could walk in, no waiting! The cottage was adorable. Just down a few stairs, past the cute little garden and there we were at hidden oak. Lots of cute landscaping. Definitely coming back with a few accessories (eye masks and pillows!, binoculars)
Pros:
Very quiet.
Romantic setting
Close to Main Street, 5 min drive to everything.
Commentary snacks waiting
Hair dryer, blanket, iron board, I pod speakers, cable tv, coffee all in the cottage.
Best sheets ever!
Excellent bird watching
Heated floors!
–they provide a few games like sorry! Checkers, etc.
— very close to other treehouse, but the way they designed them, u cant seem them all all. All balconies, windows are located away from your neighbor! Very clever!
–excellent DVD collection. Can rent out as many as u would like.
Cons:
Big window: brought in a lot of heat. 60 degrees outside but it was boiling inside without your air conditioning running on high!
–no curtain at top of window, the moonlight and morning sun very bright. Bring eye masks!
–flat pillows
–hard bed.
— tiny bathroom. Luckily there’s a mirror/​dresser for putting on makeup, curling hair. With lots of outlets
–tiny fridge. (but I see that isn’t with all treehouses)
–your car gets sap on it from the tree overhead. Only one parking space.
Overall this place was awesome! Definitely coming back. Want to stay in all of them! Other location is close too.

We visited in November for an 11−11−11 wedding. I loved our room. We stayed in one of the cottages and while it was a little more than my little budget allowed it was SO FREAKING worth it.
I shared no walls with my neighbors, I got a fridge and microwave, there was a gas fireplace which heated the little room up marvelously, and my favorite part: the jacuzzi tub. That tub was the lifesaver of my whole stressful trip. It was big enough to comfortably fit two people and the best part? They either have the biggest water heater in the world or we got our own, that tub of water was scalding and exactly what I needed for some TLC. The sheets were really soft and not at all like typical hotel sheets.
The only complaint? The bed was a little hard. But really, after my bath, I didn’t even care. The owners/​operators were really helpful with directions and suggestions on places to eat. We even got a little map with their personal favorites! Wifi was free in your room.
After seeing the pretty expensive rooms offered at the Basin Park Hotel where the wedding party was staying, I think I totally got the better end of the deal.

One of the most unique and beautiful places I have ever been. My boyfriend and I had a blast while we visited in late August and really want to go back in the winter at some point. Highly recommend this to anyone who wants some quiet, some romance or something different.

Ewok Village!
That’s what I kept screaming in the days leading up to our romantic getaway at the Treehouse Cottages. Boyfriend even bought me the Ewok movies on DVD to watch, and had secretly bought a plush Ewok that he was going to pretend to have caught outside, but he didn’t come in the mail on time.
The little touches really made this trip special, from the homemade pumpkin bread, to the anniversary champagne, to the little handwritten note with our names on it, outside our treehouse door. We loved the heart shaped jacuzzi, the various animals outside (being awoken by a coyote, anyone?), and the fireplace. If you didn’t bring Ewoks DVDs with you, the office has a pretty extensive collection to peruse, and the owners are super nice. I can’t wait to come back again soon.

I’d been toying with a quick trip to Eureka Springs for awhile — a weekend getaway to break up late winter. I found the website for Treehouse Cottages online, and was pleased with what I saw — it looked like a good place to relax, or a good home base for exploring the area. Their online calendar showed them to be solidly book throughout the year, even in the off-​season, so our weekend getaway ended up being a mid-​week jaunt for my husband’s birthday.
I was concerned en route that in person the room wouldn’t live up to the online promises, but those doubts were allayed as soon as we arrived. The staff and owners have been incredibly friendly and helpful, and they make good on their vows to let you have your peace, quiet, and privacy while you visit. You are welcomed in your room with fresh-​baked pumpkin bread and other complimentary snacks. Rooms have a small kitchen that allow you to eat in (as long as you don’t need an oven), and a TV, DVD player (the office has a great library of new movies & old favorites for you to borrow), and an iPod dock so you can listen to your favorite playlists during your visit. Everything is clean and in great condition, and each day a new Duraflame log is delivered to your room for your own fireplace. Our private deck has a full-​size BBQ grill and a birdfeeder that’s been home to many birds and squirrels.
My only complaints? I wish there was a soap dish near the claw-​foot tub. And don’t get any too-​wild ideas — we’re not IN a tree, just sort of in the trees, and the rope bridge leading to our room? It doesn’t swing! Thanks, Treehouse, for a very pleasant and comfortable «weekend» away.
