For New Yorkers accustomed to the daily grind of city life, a luxurious treehouse tucked away upstate has an obvious appeal. A little over two hours north of New York City, the Willow Treehouse outside Woodstock, New York, welcomes visitors with a serenity that’s nearly impossible to find in any city, much less the Big Apple. Designed by architect Anthony Gibbons, this modern structure sits on a 34-acre property in the Catskills and blends effortlessly into the natural environment that surrounds it. Its minimalist aesthetic also makes it an ideal getaway upstate. Best of all? It's listed on Airbnb.
The treehouse is complete with a lofted bedroom, incredible views and even a wood-fired hot tub.
Much of Gibbons’ work is inspired by the forms of nature, and this woodland escape is no exception. The treehouse is tucked away in the forest in Willow, New York, and overlooks a small lake. It’s a peaceful view that visitors can enjoy from the comfort of the living room.
The treehouse’s huge windows provide a wealth of natural light to the open-plan space, which includes a large living room, kitchen, lofted bedroom and an additional private room.
The kitchen, which sits between two outdoor balconies, boasts a sleek design and an island with four barstools.
The lofted bedroom sits beneath a skylight and is framed by two large windows with stellar views that overlook the forest.
Outside, visitors will find a porch with a grill, outdoor seating, a Swedish-style wood-fired hot tub and easy access to the pond via a small dock.
Whether you’re on the hunt for a woodland adventure or just a laid-back weekend in solitude, you won’t find a better home base than this.
Currently listed at $360/night on Airbnb, the secluded treehouse in Willow is an easy 15-minute drive from Woodstock and just over an hour south of Albany. Combine this rental's serene location in the Adirondacks with its charming, modern feel, and it's an escape that's too difficult to pass up.
