Me and my wife had a great time and really enjoyed the cabin. It was clean the hot tub area was amazing. The only thing I would change is it would be nice to have some blinds on the windows by the staircase. We would definitely stay here again

Great location and space

We had the best time at the Treehouse! Its close to all the major trails (Garden of the Gods is literally down the street as is Rim Rock and Pounds Hollow). The Treehouse is the perfect size, was spotlessly clean and the hot tub was the best way to finish off a day of hiking. The group managing these properties does a great job with check in, check out and also checking up on you during your stay. Highly recommend if you're wanting to explore the Shawnee area!
