Cullman County's Unique Moroccan-Inspired Treehouse
In the charming landscapes of Cullman County, Alabama, a distinctive Airbnb known as the Flying Carpet Treehouse has captured the imagination of travelers across the nation. This whimsical retreat, owned by Jeff and Cherisa Lewis, gained significant recognition after being featured on HGTV’s popular show "Wild Vacation Rentals." Visitors have been left in awe as they discover that such an enchanting property could exist in Alabama, defying their expectations of treehouse accommodations.
The inception of the Flying Carpet Treehouse was rooted in a simple admiration for treehouse designs. Cherisa Lewis recalls how their love for treehouses sparked the idea to create one of their own. Initially, the concept seemed straightforward, but a serendipitous encounter at a salvage store transformed their vision into an elaborate Moroccan-themed getaway. They stumbled upon unique doors and windows that ignited their creativity, leading them to embrace a theme that celebrates the intricate beauty of Moroccan architecture.
From Inspiration to Reality
The design process was a labor of love for the Lewises, who meticulously studied Moroccan architecture to infuse authentic elements into their treehouse. Jeff Lewis describes the experience of researching various architectural styles as akin to solving a puzzle, where each detail fell perfectly into place. The result is a stunning space adorned with rich fabrics, exquisite Moroccan vases, and custom wallpaper sourced from Latvia, creating an immersive experience that transports guests to a different world.
Since its debut on HGTV, the Flying Carpet Treehouse has attracted a diverse array of visitors, from local travelers to international guests. Jeff mentions an influx of bookings from various states, including California, New York, and even Guam, illustrating the treehouse’s widespread appeal. Despite the newfound fame, the couple remains committed to providing a warm and welcoming experience for their guests, ensuring that every detail is perfect for their stay.
Looking ahead, the Lewises are already brainstorming their next unique Airbnb project, though they are keeping the specifics under wraps for now. They promise that whatever they create next will be just as enchanting and inviting as the Flying Carpet Treehouse.
