About this property

The Treehouse

Set on 15 wooded acres just around the corner from Spencer Lake, The Treehouse is the 1970s camp that we wish we grew up with. The Treehouse is ideal for girls and boys of all ages. Whether you’re looking to escape the city for a relaxing retreat with family, or a girls trip to sip those oh so tasty Wisco’ Old Fashioned cocktails. We hope this lovely Wes Anderson inspired cabin will be the Wisconsin Kingdom to make lasting memories at.

Incredible private getaway

I can’t say enough about the charm of this property. The setback, private nature of this wonderful retreat was incredible. Less than 10 minutes from anything. We’ve already booked our next stay.

Nice place. Screened porch is awesome. One note bunk bed is a single bunk, room for 2 people. Illustration shows 2 bunks, room for 4 people by my view.

I’m glad you had a nice stay. I’m not sure what you are referring to with the bunk beds. I went back and looked at photos, same bunk beds, just a different view. Also the listing states it sleeps 8 people. Please let me know if there’s a better way to state this.

Nice Winter Getaway

My family and I rented this location for a Holiday get away. It is a beautiful home in a scenic remote location with trees surrounding the property. It is spacious with a beautiful open kitchen/dining/living room area. The pool table downstairs was a super fun added perk! The owner of this property responds extremely fast to any questions or needs. I highly reccommend this property.

Treehouse

The size of the house was great and so was the location for our needs. The house has a very musty smell, that was not good. The lighting is not sufficient, very dark walls made it darker, but if more lighting it would have helped. The other concern was no AC, luckily it was a very cool weekend, but had it been last week, it would have been awful. I know it doesn’t mention AC in the details, but it should have been clearer - i think most folks assume there is AC.

Review of Waupaca property

The house was very clean, and the screened in porch was our favorite place to hang out. The inside is definitely rustic, and I might suggest they invest in numerous upgrades. For example, air conditioning, and dryer needs to be fixed (which the owner did mention). The lack of air conditioning made the house very musty. The drains in a couple of the bathrooms were not draining adequately. The lack of lighting led to a spooky atmosphere, especially in the lower level. It definitely had room to accommodate a large family.

I hope you were able to have an enjoyable experience at the Treehouse. I understand air conditioning would be nice, however the VRBO listing clearly states that there isn’t air conditioning. Thank you for your feed back on other topics. I will take those into considerate.

Waupaca Treehouse Retreat

Beautiful setting, meticulously clean, spacious with many gathering spaces, family friendly. Description was accurate. I overlooked that there was no air conditioning when I booked it. Mid June visit was in the 90's so it was a bit too warm for my family, no fault of the host. A couple of fans were provided. Would suggest to bring additional fans along if visiting during summer months. Would love to visit again with my family in the fall or winter season. Dryer wasn't working. Was notified by Amy prior to arrival. Amy responded to questions in a timely manner. Loved the Wisco decor and cabin feel.

Charming Brady Bunch feels!

We didn't spend a ton of time at the property because we were in Waupaca to visit family, but we certainly enjoyed the quietness and quaintness of the Treehouse. Our favorite thing was to sit outside on the screened-in porch and drink our morning coffee while watching deer in the woods. The home was very clean. It is very dated (70s) but we felt like that added to the charm and overall feel. Depending on the age and mindset of the visiting group, it can feel like a setting from the Brady Bunch or the Twilight Zone. Our children thought it could have been "haunted" ;) It was a great stay and will hopefully be back. We also want to give a shoutout to Amy for her quick response in trying to resolve an issue we had (a large tree happened to fall across the driveway while we were there) - we called her late at night to let her know and she made an appt to have it removed the next day.

I lived in northern WI for most of my life. In 2005 my family moved to Montana. I love Montana and it’s rugged beauty, but my heart will always be in Wisconsin on a lake!

I hope you love the Treehouse as much as I do and you and your family and friends make many memories there!
