Fun Treehouse Getaway • Firepit • Lake Access

Jaybird Treehouse | Lake of Egypt

Tucked into an oak tree and framed by two tall pines, Jaybird Treehouse offers a playful but comfortable stay at Lake of Egypt in Goreville, Illinois. Built among the trees yet thoughtfully equipped, this unique retreat blends outdoor adventure with practical comforts. Deer are frequent visitors, sunsets glow through the trees, and the night sky puts on a show once the stars come out.

This is a true elevated treehouse experience — fun, memorable, and designed for guests who enjoy being close to nature while still having modern amenities.

⭑Sleeping Arrangements⭑
The main level features a cozy queen bedroom. A trap door leads to the lower sleeping space with three twin beds — a favorite for kids and adventurous adults alike. The layout makes it ideal for families, small groups, or couples who want something different from a traditional cabin stay.

⭑Kitchen & Living Area⭑
The full kitchen includes a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker, blender, toaster, cookware, and cooking basics. There’s also an ice cream maker — bring toppings and look up your favorite recipe for a fun vacation treat. The living area includes comfortable seating, Smart TV, board games, books, and high-speed WiFi.

⭑Bathroom⭑
The bathroom includes a full shower with a unique rock river floor, modern fixtures, and everything you need for a comfortable stay.

⭑Outdoor Features⭑
The large elevated deck offers beautiful sunset views. A bucket pulley on 2nd small deck adds a playful touch. Down below, you’ll find a hammock for afternoon naps and a tire swing for kids (and kids at heart). A private firepit with comfortable seating and provided firewood makes evenings easy and inviting.

A sunbathing and stargazing deck down by the lake offers another peaceful spot to relax, complete with a second firepit you’re welcome to use.

⭑Lake Access & Extras⭑
