Yep it's true, there's going to be a treehouse resort just 90 minutes from Chicago and it's carved into the Eastern edge of Starved Rock State Park. And yes you can hike the entirety of the 13 miles of trails in the park from your treehouse steps or drive(9 mins) to the Lodge or visitors center.
Construction of phase one has begun. The first treehouse will open up for booking soon. Waiting list open.
STAY
Immerse yourself in nature in one of our 4 luxury treehouses along the same sandstone bluffs that meander through Starved Rock State Park right across the creek. Year-round, well-appointed, spacious treehouses for the whole family - sleep 6.
Heat/AC, full bathrooms & kitchens, screened-in porches, fireplaces inside/outside, WIFI, 65" TV's and expansive decks perched from 12'- 22' off the ground.
HIKE
Explore our 26 acres or hike your way to every trail within Starved Rock State Park's 2630 acres, starting right from your treehouse. Maybe venture out to Matthiessen and Buffalo Rock State Parks.
WATER
Kayak the creek right out to the Illinois River. Rent a boat for a day of water sports or get on a 2 hour paddlewheel cruise right up the road. Maybe spend a few hours at one of the 2 indoor water parks in the area if it’s too cold outside. Kayaks will be available on site. More rentals to come available as we slowly open.
EAT, DRINK
Cook a meal with the family in your treehouse's full kitchen and then roast marshmallows around the bonfire. Or head into historic downtown Ottawa, IL (9 mins) for a dinner and a movie. Or the charming downtown Utica (10 mins) for dinner, some wine and cupcakes. Or just order in from a local restaurant, stay in your treehouse and forget about life down below for a while.
