30 Stunning Treehouses You Can Rent On Airbnb
Listing your home on Airbnb can be a great side gig, but it can also be a handy way to find places to enjoy your own special getaway. You could rent a chic city apartment or stay in a gorgeous beach house. You can also opt for stunning houseboats that let you spend time on the water or unique rentals that offer you a one-of-a-kind vacation. Or you could climb up and hunker down in a treehouse.
Why do people — even adults — love treehouses so much? Sally Augustin Ph.D., explained in Psychology Today that they "give the people in them a protected view out over their world," which is why they feel like "cozy retreats." Of course, on top of being cozy, the treehouses found on Airbnb offer a wide range of details, amenities, and even luxuries. Frankly, there are so many dreamy treehouses on Airbnb that you may have to book more than one!
