This treehouse rental is for folks who want to experience off-the-grid living. There is no electricity, no running water, and no bathroom inside. It’s like camping, but you’re staying inside a treehouse.

There’s one bedroom and an outdoor toilet, and that’s it. It’s raw and basic, but the treehouse sits on a private 130-acre property, giving you plenty of space to stroll and explore, as well as set up a hammock among the trees, and even discover local wildlife.
If you want to get away from it all and spend a quiet and peaceful weekend by yourself with no distractions from the outside world, this is the perfect place for you. They also allow pets so if you’re a pet parent, it’s the perfect rental in West Virginia to unwind and recharge with your furry friend.
