Amazing tree inside the house. Treehouses are a great part of most of our childhood memories. From being our secret hideouts to inviting friends over to create a boys or girls only club, treehouses have been that significant spot to many of us.

Wonderful cabin, wonderful stay!

We recently returned from our stay at this property and felt compelled to share our experience. The cabin was truly a delightful retreat, well maintained and equipped with top-of-the-line appliances and comforts. We especially enjoyed the cozy fireplace and the soothing outdoor hot tub. Upon our arrival, we were pleased to find the cabin clean and fresh, stocked with lovely linens and towels, which made us feel right at home. WONDERFUL, RELAXING and PEACEFUL SETTING. Thank you to Feras & Family for making our stay so very special.

Peaceful getaway with special touches

This is a lovely spot to relax and recharge. Just steps away from the stream, which was gorgeous in the fall. Feras and family were excellent hosts. The Moonlight treehouse was thoughtfully decorated; we wish wexould have stayed longer. Excellent proactive communication. We will be going back in the future!

Maine adventure

Moonlight treehouse was the perfect place for our small family adventure to Maine. It was perfect for us to get to all the hiking spots between eastern and western Maine. In our down time we were able to use the kayaks and SUPs along with fishing along the lake/stream. Best of all after a long day hiking we were able to relax in the hot tub and enjoy our meals on the deck. The host Feras, was quick to respond to any questions and provided a great guidebook with several recommendations. Our family was able to cook several meals and even enjoy the one rainy day inside that we had.

Wonderfully peaceful stay!

This was such a unique house and we really enjoyed our stay! With Maine evenings being cooler even in the summer sometimes, the hot tub was great as was the fire pit. Everything we needed was there and the owners really thought of everything. We loved being able to bring our dog and he was so excited to swim every day. The kids didn’t want to leave-oldest loved fishing off the dock and the youngest just liked exploring the property and kayaking with dad. I would definitely recommend the property and look forward to booking again in the future. :)

Perfect spot for Colby Graduation

We had two rentals for parents and grandparents to attend Colby graduation. The treehouses are just beautiful and the managers have thought of and provided for every need. We were close enough to the campus but in such a gorgeous lakeside spot; it was perfect. The manager is the most kind and responsive person. It would be lovely at any time but it was just ideal for this special family time. Thank you, Feras, for being so wonderful!!

Lovely stay at Moonlight Tree house

Lovely new property that the owner has put a lot of thought into with many nice touches. Property is small but very efficiently laid out - plenty of space for 3 of us and lots of nice outdoor space with canoes, kayaks, firepit, etc. Convenient location with good access to Belgrade Lakes region. The owner was very responsive to our questions and touched base with us during our stay to ensure our needs were met. Highly recommend this property. Will return and will recommend to friends/families.

Family Vacation

My family took a week long trip to Maine and stayed at the Moonlight Treehouse. The treehouse was beautiful from the first moment when we walked in. It was beautifully decorated, with ambient guitar music playing, eagerly waiting to welcome us in. The property was gorgeous with lots of wildlife and lots to keep my kids busy and entertained for the whole stay! They couldn’t have had more fun! Feras and his family were absolutely wonderful. So welcoming and helpful! If we needed anything they were just a message away and helped immediately! I would recommend staying here to anyone and plan to return in the future!

A Magical Retreat: Unforgettable Treehouse Vacation in Maine

With lush forests and soothing sounds of nature, your idyllic getaway becomes a reality. It was an extraordinary long weekend escape to the Moonlight Treehouse in Maine's enchanting landscape. Treehouse's rustic charm and seamless integration with nature captivated us the moment we arrived. I loved the treehouse. With intricate woodwork and large windows overlooking the forest, it was crafted with care. We spent countless hours on the spacious deck basking in nature's peace. Rustic charm and modern amenities were seamlessly blended. This cozy haven boasted a warm and inviting ambiance. An open-plan living area provided comfortable seating for unwinding after a day of exploring. With a well-equipped kitchen, we prepared our meals at our own pace, enjoying Maine's flavors. A rejuvenating hot tub soak awaited us in the evening. Each morning, we woke up to the symphony of birdsong and gentle rustling of leaves. Comfortable beds, adorned with soft linens, ensured a restful night's sleep, leaving us refreshed. Beyond the treehouse walls, an array of activities awaited us. Hiking trails nearby let us connect with nature. On the way, we encountered waterfalls and vistas in the surrounding forests. Our hosts, Feras and family, were exceptional, warm, and accommodating. Every aspect of our stay was designed to create an unforgettable experience. It was a delight to stay at Moonlight Treehouse.

A Perfect Wedding Weekend Retreat

This host and property are absolutely amazing! We reserved all three units, Moonlight Treehouse, Skyview Treehouse and Sunset Chalet as our accommodations for the weekend, to attend our daughter's wedding at a nearby venue. Each unit is beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean, comfortable, and inviting. Feras, our host, was always available to help by promptly answering questions, accommodating special requests, and even allowing us to tour the property prior to our stay. Each unit was full of special surprises: fresh cut flowers, desserts, snacks, beverages, coffee and even champagne and a teddy bear for the bride and groom! Feras even checked in with me prior to check-in to see if there were any other special gifts he could provide for the bride and groom. Although we were away from the property often, busy with wedding activities, we were able to enjoy the hot tub, the beautiful view of the stream from our deck with coffee, paddleboarding on the water, and time around the firepit in the evening with family and friends. The property is pet friendly, and our dogs enjoyed the spacious, well-maintained grounds, swimming in the stream, while also being safe, comfortable, and secure in our treehouse while we attended the wedding. Feras went above and beyond our expectations, making us, and our dogs, feel welcome...a true home away from home. It was abundantly clear Feras and family truly care about the comfort of their guests, and worked hard to make everything perfect for our daughter's wedding weekend. We will definitely return in the future for another stay, and now our daughter and new son-in-law have a perfect retreat to return to in the future for anniversary celebrations. This a beautifully unique and exquisite property…thank you Feras and family for an amazing stay!
