Tree Houses You Can Actually Build: A Weekend Project Book Review: A Basic Overview; Both Inspiring & Helpful - This is a fun book and just what I needed. I could see someone being either delighted or disappointed, depending on what kind of book they were expecting. First of all, this is a thin book, about 125 pages, about the dimensions of a thick magazine. It's not pages of detailed paragraphs of written instructions. This offers a general overview to get you started. It doesn't have plans or start-to-finish instructions with every detail. It's an illustrated idea and tip book, something you can open to any page and read a 'little of this or a little of that'. The illustrations are doodle-style with some little notes here and there, tips, and very basic how-to notes. Also offered are safety precautions, common tools needed, suggested hardware, etc. One of my favorite features of this book are examples of treehouses for one tree, two trees, three trees and four trees. I've been trying to pick which trees and how many to use and this helped me narrow it down easily based on my personal skill level and ambition. They also offer some basic styles of treehouses and how to go about building a platform, braces, adding a roof, etc. But again, all in an easy to digest format. They encourage reusing materials and show some examples of how the most basic treehouse can be made with scrap materials you might have kicking around. There's also more elaborate styles with trap doors, circular stairs and several levels. There are a few color pages in the center of the book, not many (four color pages with front and back photos, so 8 total), just enough for inspiration and to show a few examples of a house made in two trees, or a house with a deck, etc. I had an idea of what I wanted to make but only a very general idea of how to do it. This book filled in the gaps of my limited knowledge with basic and helpful info. There's also some random info, like how to install a pulley, best ways to make a ladder, how to make some basic kid-sized furniture, signs, trap doors, etc. Jeanie and David Stiles are both talented and knowledgeable on all things outbuildings: sheds, cabins, treehouses, gazebos, etc. I knew they'd be a reliable resource. I have another book by them on building your own cabin. That one is fun to browse, but turned out to be far too advanced for my skill level. But this treehouse book is right up my alley, and I feel confident now that I can build something simple and fun this summer. Review: Adventure in Waiting.... - So I have told my children two years running- either their dad or I would help them make a tree house. I guess the chips have fallen and I'm the tree house building. So this is it. This is the book I bought so that I could start educating myself on tree house building safety and final product safety and ideas for building a simple tree house. This has been an excellent resource and I believe I'm going to be able to help my children begin building a tree house this summer. I have garnered several ideas, we have agreed on a floor plan (Square) and we have started gathering our supplies. I agree with the other reviewer who said 'if you can only have one book about building a tree house, let it be this one.' There are color pictures similar to the one on the cover of tree houses that people have actually built. There are floor plans and suggestions and helps. I particularly liked the diagrams and drawings because that helped me picture what it was I am hoping to do when I buy my wood and start making a tree house. Enjoy. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #709,292 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #216 in Outdoor & Recreational Area Gardening #315 in Carpentry #978 in Home Design & Construction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (371) | | Dimensions | 8.25 x 0.25 x 10.75 inches | | Edition | 37717th | | ISBN-10 | 0395892732 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0395892732 | | Item Weight | 12.8 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 120 pages | | Publication date | May 26, 1998 | | Publisher | Harvest | ## Images ![Tree Houses You Can Actually Build: A Weekend Project Book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81FFYxW+RnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Basic Overview; Both Inspiring & Helpful *by L***4 on January 27, 2018* This is a fun book and just what I needed.

I bought it for my son since he and a friend decided they needed to build a tree house. Ironically, my husband hates to do this type of thing so I have had to figure out how to build a tree house! Since I have not building experience at all, this has been an interesting project. However, we are getting it done with the help of the book! It is still in process so I will let you know how it goes. I would not have known how to even begin if it were not for the help of this book!! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/229238-tree-houses-you-can-actually-build-a-weekend-project-book](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/229238-tree-houses-you-can-actually-build-a-weekend-project-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
