Berlin Woods Treehouses Review

A few weekends ago, I packed up the car and headed to Berlin Woods Treehouses. It's located just a little over 2 hours west of Pittsburgh. I had never heard of it until I stumbled upon it in a Google search one day back in July! 

The cabins are considered treehouses because they are on 'stilts' that situate the cabin 30 feet off the ground. The effect is pretty cool because you feel like you are up in the trees. At some points, we could actually feel the slight movement of the treehouse! 

There are a total of 6 treehouses that all sit next to each other in a row (but plenty of space in between). We booked Treehouse #1. Treehouses 1-3 are the big treehouses that sleep up to 6. Treehouses 4-6 are smaller. Quite honestly, I think I would only ever book treehouses 1-3 because they were far cooler in design and architecture than the other 3.  The other 3 looked like a cabin you could find almost anywhere. 

It had 3 decks! The first level deck wrapped entirely around the cabin, the upper deck was just off of the back and the coolest deck was off of the 'crow's nest' at the highest point of the cabin. There was a full eat-in kitchen, 2-full baths, 2 king beds, and 2 single beds. You should know that there are no separate bedrooms. Everything is totally in the open with the exception of doors on the bathrooms. 

Everything was made out of wood which was really cool- it was luxurious and high quality! I think this type of trip would make for a fun getaway. Pretty good for all ages but with children, you'd have to keep a close eye on them considering you are so high off of the ground! 

The area is an Amish town with a few cute general-type stores. We stopped in a few as we were leaving the area and got some cheese (they're known for their cheese) and it was Heavenly! Otherwise, there isn't too much to do in the area, so I wouldn't really recommend an extended stay- a weekend would be perfect! 

It was amazing because we were there the weekend that was peak leaf peeping! But I also think it would be fun during the summertime when you could enjoy the outdoors a bit more. It's pretty affordable, too. For one night it was about $400! 

It was totally different than any cabin experience I have ever had. We watched movies, cooked dinner, and enjoyed coffee on the decks! The TV was great because it was equipped with Netflix, Amazon Video, etc. so you could pretty much watch anything you wanted! Plus, the TV was right by the fire so bring a bottle of bubbly, cozy up by the fire and watch a good movie! 

Since it has a full kitchen, you can bring your own food. I suggest doing this because there aren't too many places to go out for a meal- plus it was fun to cook a meal in the cabin! The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook. We ended up making a big Caesar salad and crab stuffed salmon filets. It was delicious. 

There was also ample space for cars at each cabin. You could have easily parked 4 cars in a nicely paved and lit area! The only (small) suggestion I would have would be to bring your own coffee machine. The coffee machine that is in the cabin made horrible coffee and there weren't really any coffee shops close by. Not a huge deal, but if you are a coffee-lover like me, then you'll understand! 

Overall, it was such a fun experience and I totally recommend it to anyone and everyone, especially Pittsburghers or Clevelanders because it's a quick and easy drive!

This is wonderful! We rent homes several times a year through VRBO, but I want to find a Treehouse one of these times. I so hear you on the coffee, I almost always pack a french press, its small and makes a perfect cup!

What a glamping dream! I've always wanted to stay in a cabin like that, preferably in the snow! I think that would be so beautiful and relaxing.
