Where to Stay for a Treehouse Near Pittsburgh

The best area for a treehouse getaway near Pittsburgh depends on whether you want to stay close to the city or head into the Laurel Highlands for hiking, waterfalls and mountain scenery.

Ohiopyle and Farmington

Farmington is our top choice if outdoor adventures are the main reason for your trip. Ohiopyle Luxury Treehouse, Fernstone Treehouse and Oakleaf Treehouse are all located in this part of the Laurel Highlands, putting Ohiopyle State Park and some of Western Pennsylvania’s most beautiful scenery within easy reach.

This area is particularly good for hiking, waterfalls, rafting and cycling, while Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob give you something completely different to do between outdoor adventures.

Cranberry Township

Choose Cranberry Township if you want a treehouse experience without travelling too far from Pittsburgh. Located north of the city, it’s much more convenient for travellers who want to combine their unusual accommodation with sightseeing, restaurants or events in Pittsburgh.

The Cranberry Limited gives you a genuine treehouse in a peaceful wooded setting while keeping the city around 20 miles away.

Laurel Highlands

The wider Laurel Highlands region is the strongest choice for a nature-focused getaway. Forests, streams, waterfalls and hiking trails surround the Farmington and Ohiopyle properties, and the area works particularly well for a weekend road trip from Pittsburgh.

Autumn is especially beautiful, while summer is ideal for hiking, rafting and spending evenings outdoors.

Which Area Should You Choose?

Choose Farmington and Ohiopyle for hiking, waterfalls, rafting and a proper nature escape. Pick Cranberry Township if being close to Pittsburgh is more important and you want to combine a treehouse stay with time in the city.
