and cooling system. The 750-foot steel
main beams were zip-lined in place from a
hill. Wooden blocks were installed to protect the growing trees.
No climbing is necessary here. Both
Holly Rock and Tuscany treehouses are
accessed by bridges from nearby hillsides.
The houses feature deck hot tubs as well
as kitchens and are open year round.
Prices range from $175-$325 a night.

Cabins at Pine Haven. The two
treehouse-style cabins at Pine Haven in
Beaver, WV, sit high in the trees on thick
stilts and have trees growing up through
their decks. These are comfy treehouses
that have electric heating, AC, kitchens,
hot tubs and television-a far cry from
your childhood tree platform.
While the treehouses are handy to
Winterplace skiing and New River rafting,
they also offer diversions onsite. Guests
enjoy disc golf, flight golf, volleyball and
snookball, which is a bit like playing pool
with your feet.
The tree houses can sleep up to
six and rent for $119-$229 a night.

Buffalo Trail Cabins. The treehouses at Buffalo Trail Cabins in Bluefield
offer a surprising extra-a resident buffalo
herd that visitors can observe. Four of the
stilted cabins come equipped with kitchens, WiFi, cable, heat, AC and bathrooms.
The 11 rustic treehouses are a fun way to
go camping and still sleep in a bed. They
don't have kitchens or heat and rely on
a nearby bathhouse for showers and toilets. Each comes with a fire pit, picnic ta-

ble, two bunk beds and an outdoor water
source.
The Buffalo Trail resort makes hunkering down in the woods easy with its
restaurant, brewery and camping areas.
It is especially popular with ATV riders and is located a few miles from a
Hatfield-McCoy trailhead. Prices are
generally $45 a night for the rustic
treehouses and $145 for full-service
treehouses.
