“Tree Escape is pretty! Private and relaxing, hidden away in the trees but still so close to everything. With friendly hosts who’ve thought of every little detail designing this space. Highly recommend!!!” – Lindsey, ‘22

Tucked up above a detached garage you’ll really feel like you’ve escaped to your own secluded treehouse. Head up the stairs of Southport Tree Escape to your own king-sized suite with luxury linens and a cavernous, completely refreshed full bathroom.

There’s also an eat-in kitchen, equipped with all the cookware, appliances, and essentials required to satisfy the most exacting chef. Note: chef alert! While you’re out exploring Southport, be sure to pick up some fresh seafood at close by markets dotting the Intracoastal Waterway.

You’ll also find modern amenities including a Nest thermostat, USB charging ports, and, feel complimentary to pack light: you’ve got your own washer/dryer as well. There’s even a comfortable loveseat to curl up in for movie nights or rainy days, but, the private deck will probably be your favorite spot!

Spend sunny mornings calming with a cup of coffee before hitting downtown or the beaches. Or take an afternoon to watch the wildlife pass through.

"As I sat on the deck trying to complete some work, I was visited by Hummingbirds, Dragonflies and Butterflies. It's so very peaceful." – Carolyn, ‘21

Sunset is the ideal time to relax on the deck, uncork a bottle of local wine, light the fire table and snuggle in for a cozy evening!
