Perfectly perfect in every way!

We have traveled to many places over the last years. And as everyone knows each vacation has a different tone to it. I believe this is one of my favorites of all time. There were something that felt soul enriching about staying in these tree houses. The hosts were so responsive, kind, and generous with not only their helpful tips, but the delicious homemade food provided for our breakfast each morning. This is an experience that I will never forget and highly recommend. I can count on one hand how many reviews I have left, but this one needed to be done. If you’re ever going to Hermann Missouri, THIS is the place to stay for a relaxing -one of a kind experience. Honestly- loved every second.

lovely

We had a great stay at the Cabin! Lee was a wonderful host. The cabin was spotless and very comfortable- we had everything we needed! Would love to stay again. Lee was very responsive to texts and the checkin process was seamless.

Great place to stay

This is great place to stay, for unique trip. It is a little pricey, so for the price wish the breakfast would have been a little more but the place was clean, comfortable and great experience. Would also say I like the privacy as well, you are not all On top of each other.

sunrise beauty

We stayed at the sunrise treehouse. It truly was so relaxing. Nice to be in such a beautiful spot with my spouse. Absolutely everything that we had been hoping for in a treehouse. we have been dreaming of staying in one for years, finally came across this and couldnt be happier with the choice. Relatively close to us, being that we are from St Louis, Mo. We enjoyed wine tastings from local wineries. great food nearby! and peaceful moments on the porch. I can also say, the sunrise was beautiful as it appeared thru the bedroom window .

Sunrise to Sunset

From morning coffee to evening wine, the relaxing atmosphere is amazing. The Cottages are minutes away from town and many attractions. We are already planning on coming back in the fall when the leaves are in full color!

Amazing

My boyfriend and I came here for our first vacation and we were not disappointed! I thought we were going to spend the whole day in town but instead we decided to hang out in the trees all day. There is plenty to do within the game room and just experiencing the wildlife around you. Absolutely gorgeous and amazing! We can’t wait to come back!!

Peaceful and beautiful 😍

It was so peaceful and beautiful! The hot rub was nice and clean as well as our cabin. Never heard any loud outside noises. Comes with a mini fridge, microwave, kuerig (we had issues with it taking the non kuerig cups provided so maybe bring your own, but no biggie). The communication was very good and they were quick to respond. I loved it there and only a few minutes from downtown and wineries.

Adorable, super clean and comfy

The cottage was breathtakingly adorable and peaceful. Very private setting nestled in with nature surrounded by large mature trees. The decor inside was super cute and the space was well laid out and roomy. Lots of comfy beds and even more than one bathroom. All the necessary amenities too. Really enjoyed our stay.

A little slice of heaven

The Cottage was recommended by a CA friend saying if I ever made it to MO I had to stay there as she knew I’d love it. Well, she was right! My 1-night stay was perfect! After touring the quaint town of Hermann I was surrounded by lush greenery and enjoyed reading and feeling safe during a thunderstorm (something rarely seen in CA). Although Covid guidelines prohibited a breakfast gathering with fellow guests, my meal was delicious. If you’re looking for a new travel experience, I highly recommend The Cottage.

True Serenity

I really enjoyed my one-night stay at the "Sunrise" treehouse. It was a last minute decision and fortunately there was availability - a rarity for last-minute. I jumped on it. Was definitely what the doctor ordered. Serenity in the middle of the woods.
