Known as The Observatory Treehouse, this unique treehouse in Kentucky is not for the faint of heart and definitely not for those who have a fear of heights. But if you seek adventure, utter quiet and the best view of the Kentucky night sky, then The Observatory should be your home away from home. Start packing your bags now, because this incredible overnight destination beckons.

Known as the most adventurous rental in Red River Gorge, The Observatory Treehouse sits 50 feet above the gorge floor and is nestled in a thick canopy of Eastern White Pine trees. It was built by the Canopy Crew, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay - assuming you can make it up there.

To reach the actual treehouse, you must climb 200 stairs that steeply ascend into the trees.

The interior of the Observatory has just what you need, but nothing more. There is a gas stove, a water jug with sink and a composting toilet.

And you can't beat the sleeping arrangements. The "master bedroom" has a glass ceiling, perfect for star-gazing and there is also enough space for two more guests, for a total of four.

You'll likely spend most of your time on the exterior of the treehouse, given the canopy view and unique outdoor spaces.

Speaking of the view...if you are afraid of heights, you may want to choose a different place to spend the night. The treehouse is true to its name and hovers above the woods and gorge, giving you a true escape into nature. Your childhood dreams will be fulfilled in this epic spot.

While spending time in The Observatory, relaxation should be at the top of your list. The builders recognize it as one of the coolest tree houses in the entire world, given its true treetop location. This rental is definitely not for those who cannot physically make it to the top, or for young and unsupervised children.

The Observatory Treehouse in Kentucky may just give you the best night of sleep of your life. It will definitely be the most unique and adventurous. Leave everything behind and ascend into the forest canopy for a one-of-a-kind Kentucky experience.
