This multi-room escape is perched in the trees, reachable by a set of stairs. Of course, it requires a little more effort than staying in a cabin or hotel, but the experience of sleeping in a treehouse in Kentucky is unmatched.
As its name suggests, The Looking Glass has mirrors on its exterior which reflect the light and scenery of the forest.

This treehouse is particularly magical and would make a great spot for a couple's getaway or for a small family or group to relax and enjoy the quality time together.
When you arrive, you'll climb the staircase through the trees and to the first structure.
