Unique treehouse cabin with all amenities inspired by forest ranger lookout. The lookout inspired Outpost Treehouse (not actually attached to a tree) sits in a white pine forest in the middle of a 65 acre active farm. The 15 hand crafted windows allow for great views watching out for Michigan wildlife--White tail deer, turkeys, owls, coyote have all been spotted from the elevated wrap around deck. The biggest regret that guests have noted is “we wish we would have stayed longer”!The spaceThe treehouse has all the modern amenities--Air conditioning, furnace, private bath with shower, hot and cold running water. Solar power is used for interior lights. The 14x14 room has a queen size bed, a comfy chair, small table with 2 chairs, buffet cabinet with bar sink, small refrigerator for drinks and coffee maker. To access the bathroom you must go outside and downstairs...there are lights on the staircase for those nightly trips!On the same treehouse upper level just a few steps away over the walkway you have access to a microwave, fridge and camp stove located in the newly added pavilion. There is also a propane gas grill outside. A small amount of firewood is provided so you can enjoy an evening by the campfire.Close by there is a heated/air conditioned “glamping” tent which is considered the 2nd bedroom. If you have more than 2 guests the tent will be automatically added. It is a 12x14 platform tent that has windows on 3 sides, a front door with screen, 2 beds (30x78). This is designed to accommodate another couple or older children who can sleep alone. (There is an added $50/night cost for use of glamping tent.) There is an electric heater for the cool nights but we don’t recommend using the tent in March, November or December . There is a portable air conditioner for your comfort during the warm summer. The tent is always in addition to the treehouse. You cannot rent just the tent.The ground level is the “mechanical “ room and the bathroom. MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU HAVE TO GO OUTSIDE AND DOWN THE STAIRS TO GO TO THE BATHROOM…we do provide an umbrella in case it’s raining. We consider it part of the adventure!Relax, watch for wildlife, sit around the camp fire or take a walk around the property. Long pants and closed toed shoes are recommended for the woods where you will find poison ivy and poison oak in places. When the weather is wet boots are advisable.If you must connect to the world, complimentary wifi is available, along with a 32” Roku TV.
