It's no wonder then that several vacationers skip the typical accommodations and opt for something a little more unusual, such as staying the night in an elegant tree house high above the ground. Here are some of the best tree house hotels in America.
The Grand Treehouse Resort (Eureka Springs, AK) - This resort offers travelers some of the most beautifully decorated tree house accommodations. At The Grand Treehouse Resort, each tree house is unique but still luxurious, and the forest setting brings a feeling of a return to nature sought by many city escapees. For a visual of the resort, watch this Youtube video.

Lothlorien Woods Hide-a-Way (Portland, WA)- Instead of separate tree houses like The Grand Treehouse Resort, the entire Lothlorien Woods Hide-a-Way is one two-story tree house. Guests will enjoy typical hotel provisions such as private bathrooms and full-sized beds along with more lavish features like a full home-style kitchen and a hot tub on a secluded deck. And it's all in a tree house!

This resort is built amidst a forest of cedars, evergreens and sword ferns. Guests can explore this forest by means of an 80 foot long suspension bridge above the ground. Other interesting features include the Stairway to Heaven, the Rainbow Bridge and the Treehouse Observatory, all providing breathtaking views of the surroundings if you can handle the heights.
