This treehouse was a magical jungle DREAM! There are windows everywhere, allowing tons of natural light in as well as lovely views of the forest/greenery all around. If you want to sleep in, bring an eye mask because the bedroom is at the top of the treehouse and gets bright early (wasn’t a problem for us because we were getting up early anyway so waking up naturally to the morning light was nice). At night the frogs are loud but we enjoyed falling asleep to them. Everything about the bed is AMAZING—the mattress, pillows, and bedding are all wonderful. The vibe of the treehouse is so cozy and peaceful. We wish we could’ve stayed more than one night. It is a bit expensive but once you get there, you’ll see why. Absolutely book this place.
(The ONLY issue we had was initially finding the place. The directions say to look for a gazebo but there is definitely no gazebo. There’s a little carport out front but since we were looking for a gazebo we didn’t think we were art the right place.)

This was absolutely the MOST BEAUTIFUL and whimsical vacation rental my wife and I have ever had. I am a treehouse aficionado and builder and I really appreciated the totally private setting, the sturdy construction that integrated perfectly with the natural environment and natural ohi’a trunks, the huge French doors and screens on 3 sides of the house, the multiple decks which stayed dry even during downpours, the comfortable bed, and the kitchy artwork.
It would have been helpful to have written instructions on how to use the hot water system, how to operate the ceiling fan, how to start the propane heater, and how to light the wood stove and where to find more wood. The kitchen equipment was rudimentary, but serviceable. Some staple spices and herbs and more utensils would have made using the kitchen for simple meal prep easier. While we had guidebooks to help our sightseeing and eating out, some current, local recommendations would have been helpful.
That said, we had a WONDERFUL stay, and would return in a heartbeat.

Absolutely LOVED the treehouse. 15 minutes from the national park and perfect for chill time in between. The host was very attentive and helpful. Will be staying there again.

Exceeded our expectations!
Shocked how a house built in a tree was better maintained, functioning and even less bugs than regular houses.
But this is not just a place to stay, it was a place to feel, see and experience what true gratitude, thought and love looks like. The sheer amount of effort and care put into building and maintaining a place like this gave me perspective and filled me with gratitude for any and everyone who has helped to make this possible.
If youre a person who is seeking something deeper in life this is the place to go. I imagine there have been so many life changing realizations that have taken place at these treehouses.
What i wrote while I was there, speculating about what Skye Petterson might have experienced in his life and how he might feel after having brought so much joy to the world was this: "We dont need to force our love on to others or strive for it. Everything we need lies right where we stand, within ourselves. If we can develope the love, respect and understanding of who we are as an individual, we will discover a never ending source of power to accomplish great feats that will naturally express our love to the world and we will find that the world will naturally reflect that love back to us."
Thank you Cassandra for working us and sacrificing for our fluctuating time schedule. I can see you have a beautiful soul, dont forget to let it shine, especially on cloudy days.

AMAZING. "Tree houses" are often ill-equipped or just a regular house on stilts. This is a gorgeous, fully-livable, honest-to-god, sways-in-the-wind treehouse in a beautiful, private pocket of Hawaii's iconic rainforest. The kitchen is fully equipped and we made several meals, and hosted four adults comfortably (although two of us slept in a little pocket - it's best set up for two adults and a handful of kiddos). The water pressure is minimal at times, but that didn't cause any real problems, and the walkways, covered porch, massive windows, comfortable seating and beds, etc are all top notch. We travel a lot, and I'm not sure we'll ever top this place.
100/10. Will return!

My only regret was only staying 2 nights. This could have been our whole trip and that would have beena major improvement in our vacation.

WOW, WOW, WOW...a great experience!! No matter where you are in the treehouse, you always look into the trees and ferns. So many beautiful details in every room! Doors and windows that open up to the forest surrounding the house. Absolutely lovely!

So the “secret treehouse” is quite a treat. It’s SUPER secluded with nothing but the sound of rainforest creatures to keep you company. You can’t see lights from anything but the night sky when it gets dark. It’s got four porches, all covered, as well as a GIANT outdoor covered gathering area under the house itself. The sleeping loft is comfortable even for adults as long as you’re okay climbing a ladder, but the main floor also has a queen bed for those who don’t want to climb. Kitchen is well appointed and useful, though be prepared for no dishwasher (it’s a treehouse!). Half bath on the main floor, but the full bath is on the “ground” level, so you’re doing steps down to shower.
This place is simply incredible. So cozy, but has pretty much everything you need including fast internet. Well, no dishwasher and no laundry (but the closest pay laundry is between there and the entrance of Volcanoes National Park, which is pretty close). There’s a bit of a haul through the woods to get your stuff to the treehouse, but it’s WORTH IT!
Definitely hoping to get back and stay in this place again.
