15 Magical Treehouse Rentals in Virginia For Your Bucket List

Looking for the coolest and most unique treehouse rentals in Virginia in 2023? Well, look no further, as I’ve scoured the internet and found some unbelievable glamping Treehouse stays across this amazing state!

Given that much of its landscape remains forested, and that its physical geography is shaped by the untamed Blue Ridge Mountains, there can be few places in America better-suited for treehouse rentals than Virginia. You can find dreamily remote properties where walking trails pass the front steps, black bears prowl the forests, and you can catch the sunset either from a hot tub on the deck, or cuddled up around a wood burning stove.

Whether you’re fishing Chesapeake Bay, touring historic locations such as Monticello, or looking to make the most of Virginia’s great natural paradise for hiking, horse riding and canoeing, there are few better options for accommodation than a treehouse. Take your pick from rustic charm with just the basic amenities, to modern luxury, and childhood fantasies that families especially will adore. Browse my guide to the coolest treehouse rentals virginia has to offer, and I guarantee you’ll find something perfect for your upcoming trip!

Location: Stanley, Virginia

Price: $150+ per night

https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/24630929 

Backing on to the Shenandoah National Forest and just a 20-minute drive from Luray, this Virginia treehouse rental sleeps six guests across three bedrooms, with dogs allowed on the premises for a supplement.

It’s less than two hours by car to Washington DC, but you can be hiking on the iconic Appalachian Trail within moments. This is the type of place you want if you want to get away from it all for a while – in the winter 4WD vehicles are often needed to get access. Don’t think the seclusion means you lose out on amenities however. You can expect spacious, modern and well-appointed accommodation.

How might a perfect day here unfold? Start by enjoying your morning coffee out on the deck listening to the wind ruffling the trees and the creek burbling along. Then pack up for a day of hiking trails in the forest, touring vineyards, canoeing or fishing in a community lake. And come back in the afternoons to put your feet up around the wood-burning stove. Bliss.

This purpose-built vacation rental sits on an 18-acre ‘fish trap’ that was known to Native Americans hundreds of years ago.

Positioned on a private lot leading down to the waterfront, the sunrises and sunsets over the lake here at this Virginia treehouse are as magnificent as you would probably expect.

Location: Richmond, Virginia

Price: $270+ per night

https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/20724950 

Ranked by Airbnb as one of the best places to stay in all Virginia, this is the kind of treehouse that you dream of building (and living in!) as a kid. It’s not luxurious, it’s not glamping, it’s a fantasy treehouse designed by a renowned Richmond architect, and resembling a fire tower in appearance.

Spanning two stories, the treehouse is built from reclaimed redwood and sits in the backyard of a private home. You’ll have a private entrance to the main house’s basement where there is a bathroom and lounge area. Sleeping six comfortably, the treehouse itself is accessed over a rope bridge, and offers hammocks, a fire pit, and complementary bike hire.

There are plenty of riverside trails in the area to explore on foot or two wheels, including the popular Buttermilk Trail. The treehouse is set on five wooded acres, and is dog-friendly too so there’s no need to leave the pooch at home.

There are 700-odd reviews of this Virginia treehouse, averaging over 4 stars., which should give you a measure of its quality. Amenities include eco-friendly dimmable lighting, oak and Italian tile flooring, a queen-size cherry pencil post bed, and a private gazebo. 300-foot catwalks connect you with a wood-fired sauna, and another gazebo nearby.

The impressive structure is set within spacious grounds that guests are free to explore, with lots of birds, squirrels and bunnies to be spotted around. There are ponds, nature trails, a picnic area with firepit, a dipping pool and even a frisbee golf course!  There is also a communal barn where guests can come together, meditate or get massages.

Massanutten Rustic Treehouse Cabin with Views

Location: Luray, Virginia

Price: $130+ per night

https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/4663843 

If you’re looking for a place where you can really disconnect from the modern world, this cosy, shaker-style cabin will be just the ticket. Set 1500 feet up Massanutten Mountain, with stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah National Park, the cabin offers blissful seclusion and some truly epic sunrises. Black bears roam the woods in search of berries. 

Your rustic mountain hideaway has no cable, no WiFi. What it does have is natural spring water, a balcony where hummingbirds flock, and an ample stock of wood to keep the stove toasty and warm throughout your stay. There is a bathroom built from reclaimed wood, and a grill on the deck with a set of rocking chairs you’ll fall in love with. This is a great treehouse for groups, sleeping six across two bedrooms and futons in the living room.

In the surrounding area there is hiking on the Stephen Trail, the Luray Caverns, horseback riding, wine tasting and cycling. But most likely your favourite memories will simply be relaxing on the deck with a glass of wine to hand, drinking in those enormous views.

Price: $210+ per night

https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/24819731

Hoisted up and around a mighty oak tree, this Virginia treehouse feels very remote, but is close enough to Charlottesville to make exploring its many bars and restaurants a breeze. The spectacular Shenandoah National Park, with miles of hiking trails, is also conveniently close.

Inside the treehouse you’ll find a quirky decor, with a snug loft sleeping space that is accessed by ladder – if you’re reasonably fit you should have no difficulties. The other amenities include a kitchenette with a mini fridge, microwave and coffee pot – there’s also an outdoor propane grill. You’ll also have use of a spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower a short distance from the treehouse.

Convenient both for Charlottesville, and Shenandoah National Park with its waterfalls, wildflower meadows and wood hollows where deer and black bear roam, this Virginia treehouse is tucked away on a private hillside amid 10 forested acres. The trees provide shade in the summer, and majestic mountain views in fall and winter.

Inside, natural light floods the living spaces through floor-to-ceiling A–frame windows in the Great Room. The treehouse can accommodate up to eight guests across a range of sleeping arrangements including a queen, and a double fitted with a handsome brass bed, making it ideal for larger groups and families.

The treehouse is full of little touches that show the care the owners have taken with it. The upstairs bathroom has a lovely copper sink, for instance, and the pantry is kept well-stocked with spices. Expect to be wonderfully comfortable. The loft has an entertainment center great for kids to relax in at the end of a long day hiking, while on cold evenings you can cluster around the wood burning stove, and cook up a feast on the gas grill that sits on a spacious wraparound deck.
