Is it a SF thing?

Today, we take a look back at five favorites to help inspire a bit of a getaway to somewhere green...

It's always been one of my fantasies to have a treehouse. Even a simple one, like the ones you remember in childhood, would do. The ones featured here are over the top fabulous! Wow!

I have seen the Free Spirit Sphere treehouses (in wintery photo) here in Qualicum Beach on east coast of Vancouver Island... so amazing!

We stayed in one of the Free Spirit Spheres on our honeymoon. It was really charming (and reasonably priced, too). If you're visiting Vancouver Island, I definitely recommend checking it out.
