 Verified There are so many great things to say about the treehouse. It was a unique experience in a beautiful setting. Incredibly designed. Remote feel yet with great hikes nearby and close proximity to wonderful mountain towns. Very communicative hosts with clear instructions. A weekend getaway we won’t forget.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I stayed at Marsu and it was the most amazing time! I surprised him with a quick mountain trip for his 50th birthday! Marsu was so peaceful! We loved having our coffee on the swings, relaxing at night in the hot tub and waking up with a beautiful view through the trees. We recommend Highlands Treehouse Retreat and will for certain be back!

 Verified By far one of the best Airbnbs we’ve had the privilege to stay at. It was a modern dream with beautiful views of the trees everywhere in the home. My son’s favorite part was the hot tub, net that hungover the living room & the bridge. Host was very responsive & accommodating. I had multiple people ask me for a link once I posted pictures on insta! Highly recommend.

 Verified We picked this place in hopes the kids will remember it forever… and I think they will. It’s the most unique place we’ve ever stayed. The floor to ceiling windows truly made us feel we were sleeping in the trees. I loved opening the windows to let the cool breeze in and the bridge to the platform. The location is a gated compound of five tree houses, all hidden, with a community playground, sauna and store. The drive coming up is a little bit crazy, so be mindful of the vehicle you bring. It is a 30 min drive to town, but you do pass all of the popular waterfalls on the way. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you for having us.

 Verified My kids and I had a phenomenal time here! Wondrously beautiful, and perfect for kiddos with the treehouse netting and playground! Incredibly relaxing environment with a perfect porch for reading, and we loved laying out on the net with a blanket after some time in the hot tub. We'd love to be back!

 Verified We were looking for a unique place where we could unplug from the busy world, reconnect with nature, and enjoy some quality family time, and this place delivered exactly that! The property was beautiful, thoughtfully designed, & very well built. Although we had hoped to enjoy the hot tub a little more, we did run into a small issue that prevented us from doing so. The host was quick to respond, communicate with us, and offer to resolve the issue, which we truly appreciated. One thing to keep in mind is that the little spa retreat requires a bit of a hike to reach.Breathtaking waterfalls and hike trails, all within about a 15–20 minute drive. Downtown Highlands was also only about 20 minutes away and was such a charming town to explore!We also loved the little community center, which was such a thoughtful touch. It offered a few items for purchase, including souvenirs and even a s’mores kit, making the stay feel that much more special.I would absolutely recommend staying here!

Our stay at the Hylo treehouse was absolutely amazing. We didn't know what to expect, but we were blown away by the experience. Every detail was so thoughtfully planned, making the space both unique and incredibly comfortable. The kids had the time of their lives and keep asking us to go back-it truly felt magical for them. You can't get closer to nature than this, and yet it still offered all the luxury and comfort we could have hoped for. An unforgettable stay!

We've stayed at Hylo in Highlands several times with our whole family, and it's become our go-to retreat. The kids absolutely love it, and it truly feels like a getaway-peaceful, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. At the same time, it's perfectly located with easy access to everything in Highlands, from shopping to restaurants. It's the best of both worlds: a relaxing escape and all the convenience you could want nearby.

We had the best getaway with our family at the Highlands Treehouse Retreat! We loved the Hylo treehouse, and our kids had so much fun playing with the fun and thoughtful features. The property is perfect for strolling around enjoying the beautiful outdoors. It was a perfect retreat. We will definitely be back!
