Beautiful tree top getaway

The property was clean and well maintained. The bathroom was probably the nicest one we've had in quite a while. There was lots of Wildlife for us to enjoy. The beach was very close but we also enjoyed the sound and did kayaking. This little house was almost The Best of Both Worlds. The host was wonderful and I would definitely recommend this property.

We absolutely loved this tree house. We are a family of 3 with one fur baby, our frenchie. The house is decorated perfectly, very clean annd neat and the space for a family of 3 was very comfortable. It is close to everything yet far enough away to be peaceful. The pool was wonderful as was the beach. I absolutely love Betsy. She is very sweet and very responsive if you need something. We will most definitely be back to this tree house. Highly recommend!!

Perfect Beach Treehouse Getaway!We had an amazing stay at this charming little beach treehouse! The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. It’s in a great location with easy access to nearby amenities, and the beach was just a quick drive away.Our family absolutely loved everything Colington Harbor had to offer—peaceful surroundings, fun activities, and a true local vibe. The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, checking in on us throughout our stay to make sure everything was going smoothly.Tons of great local restaurants nearby made dining out super convenient. We’d come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

Fun in the Trees

We had a great time at the Treehouse. Betsy was an amazing host. She responded to our questions right away and was very friendly. The house is spacious and clean. Our kids enjoyed riding the bikes around the neighborhood and to the pool. The front porch is a great spot to relax after a long day at the beach. It’s also nice to enjoy a morning coffee while listening to the birds and watching the squirrels.

Location is great. Property was great. Use the local beach was great. Our dogs loved it.

We had a great time. The property was perfect. We were doing things locally and didn’t get to use all of the amenities. But I would recommend this is a great place to stay for us and our dogs.
