The Cavaltree Fort can sleep up to 7 people and shares a swinging bridge with the "Treeloon", a treehouse fashioned after a wild west saloon. Image courtesty of the Treehouse Treesort. |
The treehouses range from a more posh Schoolhouse Suite featuring a master suite with queen size bed, kitchenette and full bath with claw-foot tub and shower to the Cavaltree Fort, a two story treehouse that sleeps up to seven people. The first floor of the fort has a double bed under the tented portion with an adjacent observation deck . The second floor is built like a lookout tower with a bunk bed and movable single bed that can be rearranged to form a double bed. It also includes a loft that can easily accommodate two more kids. It is accessed by way of a swinging bridge.
I see the resort also offers a variety of outdoor activities including horseback riding, whitewater rafting, swimming in a river-fed rock lined pool and tree climbing with rappelling. They even offer the chance to swing on a giant 750 ft high Tarzan Swing!
One of the most popular activities is navigating over a mile of Zip Lines strung through the trees over the 36 acre property. Zip lines are steel cables that guests can slide on using a special harness. This video shows the variety of courses devised for both beginners and advanced zippers including the Achilles Line featuring a 500 foot plunge.
All in all it looks like a heck of a good time for families who enjoy the outdoors. Although pets are not allowed at this resort, the owners say they have friends that offer a very clean kennel close by.
