Whether it’s the trip down memory lane or the elevated sense of wonder, there’s something inherently awesome about a treehouse. Heading out into the backyard and just slapping something together in a random tree might not be feasible, but that doesn’t mean you have to give up on all your dreams of staying in a treehouse since you’re an adult. Artistree is a collective of like-minded individuals that specialize in designing and building sustainably-sourced treehouses. Yoki Treehouse at the Cypress Valley resort is an expansive and luxurious private sanctuary that rests 25-feet above a spring-fed creek outside of Austin. Spread across a main building and a separate bathhouse that are connected by a 60-foot suspension bridge, Yoki Treehouse is the perfect combination of warm woods, raw metals and modern design. Whether you’re bird watching, enjoying a morning coffee above the treeline or taking in the night sky from the custom soaking tub, you’d be hard-pressed to find a place more relaxing.
