About this property
Spectacular riverfront treehouse in Beautiful Bedford County, PA,
This rustic, well appointed treehouse rises into the trees, suspended on two huge trees and supported by posts. It is accessed by 14 easy steps. It includes a full kitchen, a living and dining area, a full bathroom, a private sleeping loft, and a huge deck overlooking the river below, just a stone's throw away.
A second deck, below the treehouse and out of the weather if it rains, features a 4 person hot tub/spa, comfy seating and a dining table. A few steps from that deck will take you to the firepit, great for those hot dog roasts and staying warm on the chilly nights.
Another few steps is the river, great for canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing.
The inside of the treehouse is warmly paneled in real wood from the property and furnished with a leather sectional, complete with queen sleeper inside. Custom built counter tops and furniture adorn the interior. Steps access the loft where a queen bed awaits. Lots of windows and ventilation keep it light and airy. Both heat and air conditioning are provided and a dedicated WIFI and TV for streaming are in place.
The river right in front of the treehouse features a natural river pool with both shallow and deep water. Just downstream of this river pool there is shallow moving water, which is great for sitting on rocks, letting the current flow past you. The sounds of the river can be heard from both decks and just across the river is a 12 mile bike trail and a 2600 acre State Game Land. Completely undeveloped Kimber Mountain rises 1000 feet above the river and this is the view from the deck. Wildlife abounds with sightings of bald eagles, great blue herons, geese, deer, squirrels and much more.
Whether you want to be active with lots to do or just hang out on the deck or by the fire, it is a great place to spend some time.

About the host
Hosted by Bruce Penrod
We live nearby the treehouse in a self built modified A Frame house that utilized an old building that was dismantled and then added lots of beautiful lumber from our 5 acre property. We enjoy the outdoors and our garden is usually loaded with fresh vegetables and herbs, which we sometimes share with guests. You'll also see our lively English Setter, Rio, romping in his kennel next to the house.
Why they chose this property
The private lane into the property is named Penrod Beach Road after my grandfather and father. Several Penrods still live or vacation in the valley. It is still pretty quiet, private, and forested.
What makes this property unique
One of the most unique features of this treehouse is that the main structure came from lumber that was cut from trees that were the same kind and close to the trees that the treehouse is attached to. In addition, much of the paneling and hand built furniture comes from a variety of wood from the property, including cherry, oak, black walnut, ash, and more. Try to identify the different varieties.
