Two weeks ago Carolyn called the Out'n'About Treesort in Southern Oregon to see if they had any openings; as who wouldn't want to sleep in a treehouse? She was told that they had been fully booked through the summer. The concept of a tree resort was incredibly appealing and because it was on our route to Crater Lake, we decided to check it out. When we arrived, we were informed that there had been a cancellation for the next two nights. Although unplanned, we decided to splurge and take this opportunity for this unique experience.
The treehouses are gorgeously built in a variety of styles, sizes, and heights. We were given the first treehouse built on the property, the seed that sprouted the resort. Although we didn't take advantage of the numerous activities at the resort (zip lines through the canopy, horseback rides, giant "Tarzan" swing) we enjoyed the free rope swing, the stream-fed natural swimming pool, communal kitchen, communal fire pit, the outdoor pool table, basketball hoop, blackberry picking, closet full of family games, and the delicious homemade breakfast every morning. We highly recommend this resort. Check on rates and accommodations at their website or call them at 541-592-2208 As a side excursion, we took a day to visit Crater Lake. This incredibly unique National Park is definitely worth taking the time to visit. We only stayed for about two hours and found that sufficient to do all that we desired in the Park. The stories are incredible, the vistas even more so, and the unique clarity and colors of the lake are breathtaking. There are hiking opportunities as well as a boat tour to wizard island. Because of wildfires in the area and smoke creeping in for the afternoon, we decided not to embark on these opportunities.
