About this property
Treehouse 2 - Treehouses at Starved Rock
TREEHOUSE 2 — A LUXURY TREEHOUSE EXPERIENCE AT STARVED ROCK
Welcome to Treehouses at Starved Rock, a boutique nature retreat on 26 private wooded acres directly beside Starved Rock State Park.
Four luxury treehouses are thoughtfully positioned across the land for privacy while sharing rare amenities like a private footbridge into Starved Rock’s trail system, a peaceful creekside dock leading to the Illinois River, and a dramatic sandstone bluff that borders the property.
This is not staying beside nature — it’s living within it.
Wake in the treetops. Step onto expansive two-story decks overlooking forest and bluff. Hike directly into Starved Rock from your steps. Paddle the river. End the day beside a fire as the sandstone bluff glows softly at night.
