This riverfront, fully equipped, beautifully crafted treehouse is not your average child's treehouse, but kids are certainly welcome. Walk up the easy 14 steps into this A Frame tiny house and you'll be surprised at the roominess. Inside you'll discover a full kitchen, full bathroom with shower, living area with sofa bed sectional, dining area, and loft with a queen bed. Step out on the deck, just a stone's throw from the river and listen to the sounds below of the gurgling moving water over the rocks. Move down below the treehouse to find another huge deck with a hot tub, relaxing seating, and a table for dining outside. But that's not all; step off that deck to a fire pit and steps leading to the river. The river is great for swimming, fishing, and boating and we even supply a canoe and kayaks.

The gravel site was perfect and has great mountain views. Great location to Frostburg/Cumberland. The host was very friendly and great at giving lots of advice on things to do in the area.

Weekend Trip to Cozy Mountain Cabin near 7 Springs

We loved staying at Myra's cabin. Comfy beds, clean, good shower, and responsive host. There is a spiral staircase that took us a bit to get used to, but we all did, kids included. Great location between Cleveland & DC.

Quiet and secluded. Easy directions (but be aware of limited bridge access if pulling a bigger rig) getting there during daylight hours is best

Weekend Trip to Treehouse Waters On The River

We had an amazing time at Treehouse Waters. The host, Bruce, was very nice and welcoming. The property was beautiful and the treehouse was exactly what we were looking for as a quick get away.

Amazing little place in the trees and by the river. My partner and I had an amazing time lounging on the dock and want to come back to fully enjoy the river when it's hotter next year! The fully equipped kitchen and that powerful little stove made us some great meals that felt perfect for the end of summer. Can't wait to return!

Perfect for what I needed—did a night of Tesla camping to break up a long drive. Came in after dark and left early but found everything easily.

Weekend Trip to Treehouse Waters On The River

Lovely place, fresh air, tree house is small but well suited, definitely coming back, love that is close to the river, had so much fun in it we fished with my daughter. She learned there how to ride a kayak for the first time. Over all little tree house is a must on a bucket list. As for the host very attentive, respectful. He has the place neat and well mantain. We love it. Thanks Mr. Bruce 🙏

I really felt at peace here ❤️ great location! The treehouse was pretty cool! I loved that the linens were fresh and the extra touches made the stay that much more easier, it had everything needed to cook! Even on the rainy days it was enjoyable!

Weekend Trip to Cozy Mountain Cabin near 7 Springs

We were looking for a dog-friendly cabin to meet family halfway between Cleveland and DC. Myra made everything easy. The cabin is easy to access, and the property is beautiful. There's a large hiking area behind the cabin. We enjoyed the very nice grill on the deck. Our 2-year-old loved his first campfire and s'more!

Myra was welcoming and the cabin was very clean. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit. There were several state parks local to the area that were convenient to get to.
