My girlfriend and I stayed at the treehouse for a day. Super beautiful setup and fun things to do around the property. I definitely recommend this to anyone wanted to get out and enjoy the outdoors. We will definitely be back in the future!
My boyfriend and I stayed here on our way home from a roadtrip and absolutely loved it! Very clean and private treehouse with a great outdoor space. The host was super friendly and showed us around the property when we arrived. Will definitely be back in the future :)
The Chi treehouse was a great experience! It's super cozy, very in touch with nature, and has everything you need. We really enjoyed our stay here and Gregory is such a great host that you will feel right at home. 10 out of 10 would recommend! :D
Such a wonderful experience. The property is secluded (yet only a few miles from the city) and so quiet. Loved everything about our 3 nights there. We will be back!!! :)
Loved the property and all the thought that has gone into the setup. The map was a cute touch. Good communication and easy to get in and out. Had a minor scare with some wildlife rustling in the night, but we felt safe enough with the blinds down. Not too far from Albuquerque, convenient to drive in and out.

The Chi Tree House was a beautiful place. The tree house was so cute. The grounds we amazing. We had a wonderful time exploring the orchard, vineyard, yoga area, and swing on the property. It is a peaceful sanctuary.
The host Gregory gave us a tour and answered our questions promptly via text. We can not wait to go back.

What a great place to stay! It was serene and very quaint. The directions were great, easy to find. Gregory met us when we arrived and showed us around. We loved the tree house. Very relaxing. The outdoor shower was great! The tree house bed was very comfortable. We had a perfect night to sleep outside.
We had been visiting for the Balloon Fiesta ... just one night. Left early to get to the early morning activities. Great location.
These are phenomenal people running a very special little place. We loved it here. It’s serene. It’s fun. It’s peaceful. It’s shockingly clean given that it’s largely an indoor/outdoor type of stay arrangement. Clean outdoor bathrooms and showers. Plenty of hot and cold running water. Soap, towels, you name it. Just really excellent hosts. You won’t regret staying here! We are SURE to be back and we are grateful to have found it. Thanks Roberta and Gregory!
The tree house is super cute and comfortable. Gregory was very friendly and gave us a tour upon arrival. The bedroom is on one side of the building and the kitchen and dining area is outside on the other side of the building. The bathroom is down a path a little distance. Everything is well lit though. The bedroom is open air with a half wall all around it and shades that mostly close off the top half. Everything is fully covered. It was a chilly night when we were there, but there were plenty of blankets to stay warm. We would stay here again!
Glamping at its finest. Woodsy environment. Short stroll from parking, past yoga platform and ping-pong table. Literal treehouse up a short ladder. 30 yard walk to toilet and shower. Lots of hot water, very clean and well equipped. A bit of a challenge for the prostrate impaired after midnight, but doable. Rain showers not a prob, either. Tree house cozy, kitchen and eating area all stayed dry. In appropriate weather, fire pit and gas grill near kitchen. Mosquito net around bed worked as expected.
We stayed one night traveling, may return for longer stay.
This was my second stay and it was an absolute dream! Greg and Robbie are above and beyond. Stellar hospitality! Beautiful, cozy, peaceful. The best outdoor shower I’ve ever experienced!. Stunning layout, gardens, yoga area.. excellent views and location. Full outdoor kitchen and the treehouse is the best sleepYou’ll ever have! I got a bonus rainstorm which I highly enjoyed .. this time I scheduled a massage/bodywork with Greg and it really set the tone for a perfect getaway. Nice and quiet, I was able to finish a few chapters of writing as well.. I will be returning in the early fall. Cannot recommend this fantastic place enough. Forever grateful! Thank you !!!
The tree house was a great place to stay. I enjoyed beautiful weather while i was there. The outdoor amenities are better than expected with the shower being the star. The hosts were friendly and made me feel comfortable. I only wish i could have stayed longer.
Wonderful place we stayed in the tree house. Every need was thought of it was spotless. Very charming and relaxing place. We can not wait to visit again!
I very much enjoyed my stay! The treehouse is super cozy, and the property is beautiful! Also, the outdoor shower is very neat. I would love to come back and stay in the treehouse again.
