In the serene landscapes of Petalumna, California, a unique romantic retreat stands tall, embraced by the arms of a 110 ft. eucalyptus tree. Welcome to the multi-leveled Tree House hotel by Swallowtail Studios, where an authentic arboreal experience awaits 30 feet above the ground.

As you approach this enchanting dwelling, a three-tiered staircase invites you to meander through intertwining trunks, leading you to a spacious deck. From this vantage point, embrace the quintessential Californian vistas – sprawling vineyards, horse farms, and undulating hills stretching into the horizon.

Step inside, and a world of cozy elegance unfurls across two levels. The lower level tempts with a twin bed that doubles as a couch, setting the stage for relaxation. A short climb up the ladder introduces you to the loft’s crown jewel – a plush, canopied queen bed. Though the ascent demands a dash of agility and spirit of adventure, the panoramic views and comfort are your rewards.

The very anatomy of the tree becomes an integral part of the experience. One trunk pierces the floor, another brushes against the pitched roof, which dances with the rhythm of the wind. Stained-glass windows and wrap-around decks ensure an immersive 360-degree view of the surroundings.

Though the tree house offers a chemical potty for convenience, a short walk will lead guests to a full rustic bathroom housed in a nearby barn. Delightful additions such as a curated bookshelf, ambient battery-operated lighting, and intricate décor enrich your stay.

Imagine savoring a glass of wine on the deck, basking in the golden hues of a Californian sunset from your elevated perch. This is what tree house dreams are made of! And as dawn breaks, a delectable breakfast awaits in the main house’s quaint kitchen, with the hosts ever eager to share a meal and tales.

Beyond the tree house, adventures beckon. Explore the tranquil environs, steeped in history and a mere 5-minute drive from downtown Petaluma. Further afield, the stunning Northern California Pacific coast, Point Reyes National Seashore, San Francisco, wine-drenched Napa and Sonoma valleys, and majestic redwood forests are within easy reach. For cycling enthusiasts, the renowned Chileno Valley Road promises an exhilarating ride.

A whisper from the past – in the 1970s, this property thrived as Swallowtail Studios, a renowned glass blowers cooperative. The legacy of the Grateful Dead echoes in the redwood barn, where they once played, its stained-glass windows a testament to the property’s artistic roots.
