Treehouse Villas at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort
Nestled in natural forest glens just around the river bend from the bustling Downtown Disney area, the Treehouse Villas at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa will mark the newest phase of what has become the largest Disney Vacation Club resort.
This new phase will revive Walt Disney World "treehouse living," a cherished tradition from 1975-2002. While crews are replacing villas of the '70s with brand-new vacation homes, Imagineers took special care to honor the original octagonal design.
All 60 three-bedroom homes, elevated 10 feet off the ground on pedestals and beams designed to blend into the forest environment, will sleep nine and are planned to offer modern luxuries such as cathedral ceilings, granite countertops and flat-screen TVs, all presented in a style dubbed "cabin casual."
"I was lucky enough to have a treehouse as a kid, but it was certainly nothing like this," said Imagineer Todd Thomasson. "In developing this resort, we've all learned a new word, 'glamping,' which apparently means glamorous camping. The Treehouse Villas will be glamping at its absolute best."
