Is EarthJOY Right For You?
EarthJOY is for those who feel called to nature, simplicity, and meaningful connection-and who appreciate experiences that are intentionally different from traditional lodging.
EarthJOY is best for guests who:
• Love nature, quiet, and unplugging
• Enjoy uneven terrain and woodland trails
• Appreciate rustic, outdoor experiences
• Value slow mornings, campfires, and starry nights
• Are comfortable walking hills and natural paths
EarthJOY may NOT be the best fit if you:
• Expect hotel-style accommodations
• Prefer paved or perfectly level walkways
• Are uncomfortable with nature, insects, or wildlife
• Want a highly serviced or luxury experience
• Have difficulty navigating natural terrain
Our treehouses are best described as elevated glamping in nature — simple, peaceful, and immersive.
We intentionally preserve the land in a natural state rather than manicured or developed.
If this sounds like your kind of experience…
You will likely love EarthJOY.
If not, we completely understand.
We want every guest to arrive excited, prepared, and aligned with the EarthJOY experience.

The Pete Treehouse – Where Movies Meet Moonlight
High in the trees, where breezes hum and stars wink through the branches, you’ll find our very first treehouse—crafted by Pete Nelson and featured on Animal Planet.
Push open the great barn doors and let the forest pour in. Snuggle into your indoor movie theatre for a film under the leaves, or sway gently in the giant hammock below as woodland whispers drift by.
Best for two adults and two to three kids who don’t mind getting creative with hammock sleeping. Rest in a king bed beneath timber beams, curl up in a hammock bed, or sink into a cozy couch.
Your composting toilet is just steps away, with a full private bath a short 3 min. woodland stroll from your door.
Trails wander the hills, and to reach your bedroom, you’ll climb a ship’s ladder—a final step into your treetop dreams. 🌙🌿
Full kitchenette, mini fridge, utensils, cookware.. Just bring food.
