Welcome to EarthJOY Village!
Nestled within 285 acres of privately owned forest, EarthJOY Village is home to three stunning treehouses, thoughtfully placed for both seclusion and the option to rent all three for a group adventure. One of our treehouses was even built by renowned Master Treehouse Builder Pete Nelson!
As our guest, you'll have private access to over ten miles of rolling hiking trails, ranging from easy walks to more challenging treks. Along the way, relax in hammocks, swing on tire swings, or explore peaceful creeks. Your adventure begins right below your treehouse!
Discover the Magic of the Aliyah Treehouse
The Aliyah Treehouse is our tallest and most enchanting retreat, soaring 50 feet high with a suspended swinging bridge connecting the main cabin to the Snuggle Palace bedroom. Perfect for families who love to spread out, the main cabin features a full-size bed, while the Snuggle Palace offers a bunk bed with a twin and full-size mattress—a true treetop hideaway!
At EarthJOY, we pride ourselves on offering peace, seclusion, and unique adventures, including our guided tree-climbing experience, where you can ascend into the canopy, challenge yourself with fun tricks, or simply relax in our giant green net.
A Treehouse Unlike Any Other

Beautiful Views – The Snuggle Palace deck offers starlit slumber without artificial light or sound—just the peaceful symphony of the forest.
Year-Round Beauty – Whether it's vibrant autumn leaves, winter wonderlands, spring blooms, or summer's lush canopy, there is no off-season for magic here.

Our Story & Dream Come True
Our treehouses are built from a lifelong love of nature. As children, we dreamed of having treehouses of our own—crafting imaginary homes from branches, moss, and stone.
In 2007, we founded EarthJOY Tree Adventures, where we guide people to the tops of trees. It was only natural to build a place where they could stay among the branches, too!
In 2009, we trained under Pete Nelson in treehouse construction.
In 2017, the Aliyah Treehouse was born.
In 2019, we built our third treehouse—crafted by my husband, Bill, using wood from the land itself.
Each treehouse is a labor of love, a piece of our dream, and now—a magical escape for you.
