If you are looking to take a creative tiny house vacation in the San Francisco Bay area I think you’re going to love this tiny treehouse cottage.

When you drive up to the property and park your car you’ll see there is a small cottage on the ground level and that’s where the kitchen and bathroom are located.

Take a short walk up and go up the stairs surrounded by lush greens and wild flowers to the charming tiny treehouse that’s 30 ft up in a 150 year old oak tree.

The owners originally built the treehouse 18 years ago for their children. Now they rent it out to guests using Airbnb.

From the deck you can enjoy the San Francisco Bay sunsets from the tree tops.

I’m excited to share how this man is now legally living in his 84 sq. ft. tiny home on wheels on a foundation in Spur, Texas.

And he’s doing it in his 7′ x 12′ tiny house on wheels that was built by Tennessee Tiny Homes back in the day.

Well, this is how Conor Mccann is legally living in his micro cabin on his own land in Spur, Texas and learn from his experience too.

Below you can learn how Conor did it all. He shows how anyone else can do it too. And he did it ALL for $47,270.26 including the land, hookups, fees, etc. He even shares how he insured his tiny home and how much this whole adventure cost him in detail.

Built back in the 1960s, this prefab house still stands strong today. Owner, Jens Risom, a legendary furniture designer, had this small house built on a seven acre plot of land located at the northern tip of Block Island, Rhode Island.

When he had the house built he knew exactly how he wanted it positioned on the lot to allow the most amount of sunlight inside. Risom says his favorite times of day are early morning and late afternoon.

The home is bolted down on a foundation to stay strong during winter winds and rough weather conditions. There are two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sleeping loft, large living and dining area and kitchen.

At age 97, Risom still visits the island. There’s something peaceful about the island. It’s a unique feeling when you are there. Maybe because he has created so many family memories here over time. Now his grandchildren also come to visit the beach home.

Please enjoy and re-share the tour, video and interview below. Thank you.

Established in 1925, Camp Wandawega is located in Elkhorn, Wiscousin. It’s about a two hour drive from Chicago. The property has cabins, teepees, camping, bunk house and my favorite this three-level treehouse.

The treehouse was built around a massive elm tree. There are even branches going through the house and out the window. It’s three levels, with the first level being the hanging out area for eating an drinking outdoors, the second level is the main part of the house. And the third level the library loft.

It’s outfitted with Mason jar light fixtures, tree swings, and a hammock. Used as a common space for guests, one could enjoy reading a book in the loft library or take a afternoon nap in the hammock outside.

When staying at Camp Wandawega you get the full recreational camp experience. There is everything from a private beach, private fishing pier, hiking, boating, horse shoes, basketball, tennis, archery, campfires and so much more.

As Camp Wandawega says, “We’re not a proper resort by a long shot. We’re just carrying on the tradition of connecting people to the simple pleasures of simpler times.”

Please enjoy the photos below.
