The community pool and tennis courts are just a short drive w/in the Colington Harbour community or a nice walk if you're up for some exercise. Greet the new day on the covered front porch of Treehouse OBX and watch the neighbors getting their day started or, if an animal lover, the birds and squirrels can sometimes put on a show for you.

    We loved our time at this OBX treehouse! This property is in a great neighborhood, is well maintained, and pet friendly. We enjoyed the large front porch, community pool, and the closeness to both the sound and OBX beaches. The host was very responsive and provided some great restaurant recommendations. Absolutely would stay here again!

    We absolutely loved this tree house. We are a family of 3 with one fur baby, our frenchie. The house is decorated perfectly, very clean annd neat and the space for a family of 3 was very comfortable. It is close to everything yet far enough away to be peaceful. The pool was wonderful as was the beach. I absolutely love Betsy. She is very sweet and very responsive if you need something. We will most definitely be back to this tree house. Highly recommend!!

    Perfect Beach Treehouse Getaway!We had an amazing stay at this charming little beach treehouse! The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. It’s in a great location with easy access to nearby amenities, and the beach was just a quick drive away.Our family absolutely loved everything Colington Harbor had to offer—peaceful surroundings, fun activities, and a true local vibe. The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, checking in on us throughout our stay to make sure everything was going smoothly.Tons of great local restaurants nearby made dining out super convenient. We’d come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

    We had a great time at the Treehouse. Betsy was an amazing host. She responded to our questions right away and was very friendly. The house is spacious and clean. Our kids enjoyed riding the bikes around the neighborhood and to the pool. The front porch is a great spot to relax after a long day at the beach. It’s also nice to enjoy a morning coffee while listening to the birds and watching the squirrels.

    The property was clean and well maintained. The bathroom was probably the nicest one we've had in quite a while. There was lots of Wildlife for us to enjoy. The beach was very close but we also enjoyed the sound and did kayaking. This little house was almost The Best of Both Worlds. The host was wonderful and I would definitely recommend this property.

    We had a wonderful time here. The porch is lovely and the outdoor shower was one of our favorite parts of this property. Nearby are a nice small beach and very nice pool where everyone was extremely welcoming. We had our dog with us and she loved walks/runs around the property, the little park nearby where dogs are permitted, and the porch. Local restaurants like Higher Grounds and Colington Cafe are lovely. The owner was very accommodating and responsive.

    We only stayed two nights but this was a nice property on the sound side of OBX. It is nice to have a place to stay other than a crowded hotel or an expensive rental house. It was priced well and off the beaten path. We did not use the pool so I cannot comment on that. After enjoying the days with our adult children in town it was calm and quiet in the evening away from the hustle and bustle! Thanks for having us!

    Stayed here with my 2 dogs and absolutely loved the amenities, especially the enclosed front deck....the house was clean and neat and provided everything we needed....Betsy was very communicative and prompt through the rental process and even texted to see if we arrived safely and needed anything....the neighborhood was safe and enjoyable to walk my dogs...for a short walk or drive there's a sandy place by the sound where you can enjoy the water and watch the boats along the harbor....I would definitely stay here again!
