"Take me back…we stayed a long weekend at the Tree Escape for our babymoon. It couldn’t have been a more relaxing, comfortable, and peaceful place to stay. We kept commenting on how thoughtful every touch was - a well equipped kitchen, luxurious linens and bath products, a front porch with rockers to enjoy our morning coffee.” - Grace, ‘25

"My goodness, what a gorgeous little oasis in the trees! I love this place so much. It’s got anything and everything you could possibly need; it’s so clear how much thought and care was put into it. It’s private and spacious and surrounded by the most beautiful trees. The birds, squirrels, deer and wild turkeys all right there on the property were such a treat, and the sunsets and sunrises were absolutely stunning as well. I spent a lot of time on the porch!” Jamie, - ’25
Sunset is the perfect time to relax on the deck, uncork a bottle of local wine, light the fire table and snuggle in for a cozy evening!
