Tree House Getaways is all about you - time to get away and relax! This all-inclusive weekend includes 2 or 3 night accommodations, meals, linens, all day snacks, work area, use of craft tools and surprises. Check in is at 3pm on Thursday or Friday and check out is at 12 noon on Sunday.

 

This is the perfect setting for a weekend getaway.  Our custom built log retreat sits on several wooded acres, yet boast all of today's modern conveniences. The house has 4400 square feet to enjoy with a fireplace, central air, 5 guest bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a wrap-around deck overlooking the inviting outdoor pool and scenic pond.  We are conveniently located just minutes off I-94 in Spring Arbor near Jackson.

 

The Tree House can accommodate any crafter: scrapbooking, stamping, quilting, beading, etc.  We also have many guests that don’t have a favorite craft – they come just to relax and hang out with friends.  There are many things to do in the area; shopping at a mall or small boutique is close by! 

 

 

What’s New!


 

We have the new Cricut Expression! It is a much larger unit that can use the SAME cartridges.  We have the Plantin Schoolbook font and the Accent Essentials Shape cartridge.  The mat sizes are 12x12 and 12x24 for endless possibilities.  No computer is necessary.  If you have a Cricut, you can bring your cartridges for use in the Expression!

 

 

Wireless Internet (WI-FI) access is now available for your laptop.  Digital scrapbooking is really taking off and more scrapbookers are going down this new route! At the very least, it might help you get caught up on your journaling (no pressure : )

Your Hostesses



The Tree House was started by us: Maureen, Vanessa and Terri out of our love for scrapbooking. Maureen introduced our group of friends to scrapbooking 8 years ago and we never looked back. Our monthly gatherings evolved into scrapbook weekends. Twice a year, we would say goodbye to our kids and husbands, jump in the mini van and drive into the horizon!

It is our time to relax and get away, we bond as friends and relive our slumber party memories. We also love to go because you can get so much done, catching up on those pages! Now we have turned these experiences into “The Ultimate Craft Weekend” and we look forward to meeting you and your friends!

 

Maureen is a great mom to 2 precocious girls and a supporting wife to Paul.  She has her hands full with volunteering at school, recently voted vice president of the PTG.  She is always looking for the latest scrapbooking tools and products.  She is on the cutting edge!

 

Vanessa has 2 boys that seem like twins – 14 months apart.  You may get a chance to meet her husband Jim; he occasionally opens the house for her and greets the guests to give her time to drive in from work.  She works full time at DFCU Financial in Dearborn.  Vanessa loves her new digital Nikon and is still trying to organize her piles of photos.

 

Terri is busy with 2 boys in soccer.  During the week, she runs a daycare so she is ready for some adult interaction by time the weekend comes.  Her husband Kevin always pitches in and changes a few diapers.  Terri loves finding time to spend on her scrapbooking but like all busy moms – its tough!

 

We couldn’t do this without our supporting husbands.  They keep the kids happy and alive while we take care of our guests!
