Did you know that approximately 60 percent of the state of Pennsylvania is covered in forests? Something that has stuck with me from my Pennsylvania travels is the abundance of green space and acres of trees in natural settings, rural areas, and small towns. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that there are some amazing treehouses where you can spend the night and immerse yourself in the beauty of this environment.
These are the coolest treehouse rentals in Pennsylvania to choose from.
