About Texas treehouses

While there are many fantastic cities to explore, the Texas countryside is the star of the show. Not only does a treehouse allow you to get back to nature, you’re also treated to modern interiors which are designed specifically for your comfort.

From elegant cabin treehouses for families to romantic treetop getaways for couples, a treehouse vacation includes various amenities, such as spacious guest rooms, outdoor hot tubs and children’s play areas. Some treehouses in Texas also provide access to local swimming pools and evening entertainment.

Shopping

The Shops at Highland Village shopping center offer everything from designer stores to boutiques, restaurants, and art galleries. For a choice of some of the area’s best retailers, head to Tanger Outlets in Houston or the Galleria Dallas shopping center in Dallas – the latter even has its own ice skating rink.

Tourist attractions

Getting around

You’re sure to find plenty of attractions near your Texas treehouse. To travel across the state, Amtrak operates two national routes. Cities and towns benefit from streetcars, light-rail systems, buses and cabs. If you choose to drive, you may want to bear in mind that many major routes, particularly around Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and Houston, are toll roads.
