Planning a getaway in the Palmetto State? Few things make a stay-cation more exciting than a unique place to stay. Fortunately, websites like airbnb.com and others like it make finding that perfect place to stay (outside of a hotel) more convenient than ever. When planning a getaway to the mountains of South Carolina, we can' think of a better place to land than upon the shores of Lake Jocassee.
Named one of the world's last great places by National Geographic, Jocassee Gorges is a wilderness paradise and its 7,500-acre Lake Jocassee is filled with pristine views and crystal-clear water.
But no hotels exist on the shores of the lake. And while Devil's Fork State Park offers campsites and cabins, sometimes a little more privacy is needed for a relaxing retreat from the real world.
That's where The Lost Treehouses of Lake Jocassee come into play.
Nestled in a wooded setting on a privately owned estate, this tiny 150-square-foot treehouse is precisely the perfect spot to hide out and rejuvenate.
After climbing the storybook-like spiral staircase and entering through the French doors, visitors find a rustic tiny house completely suspended in the trees.
And, in spite if its small size, the treehouse is equipped with cozy seating and ample amenities.
Large windows in the small abode afford lots of nature light.
Although there isn't a full kitchen available, the treehouse has a small fridge, eating utensils, a coffee pot, and small burner.
It's everything you'll need for a cozy stay. A four-burner grill is located only steps from the treehouse for those who want to cook a full meal.
Wondering about those steamy summer days? The cabin even has an air conditioner!
A queen-sized loft bed is easily accessed via a storybook ladder.
Approximately 50 feet from the treehouse is a luxurious, yet rustic, bathhouse featuring two private baths, a shower, sink, and a changing bench.
Looking for a unique spot to get away? The lost treehouse can accommodate up to two guests. Rates vary based upon the season.
