I love treehouses with different structures, secret spots, and cozy nooks.

Also known as Starlight Grove, this North California treehouse rental is only a short 35-minute drive from the Golden Gate Bridge, which means it’s a stone’s throw away from a metropolitan city, while still offering a retreat in nature for guests.
