Treehouse Masters Season 8 Episode 11 Thrill 'n' Chill Treehouse

In Treehouse Masters season 8 episode 11 named "Thrill 'n' Chill Treehouse," Pete Nelson and his team of builders take on an exciting challenge of designing a unique treehouse that doubles up as an adventure park. The clients, Nancy and John, are a couple who have always wanted a treehouse that can be a fun experience for both themselves and their grandchildren. They are also cautious of the fact that they have arthritic knees and need a comfortable space to relax.

Pete and his team begin the project with the idea of creating a treehouse with multiple levels of astonishing views, thrilling ziplines, and a comfortable lounge area. The location of the treehouse has perfect trees that form a natural foundation for this project, and Pete believes that the structure should be made to suit the natural topography. He immediately sets to work and begins with a detailed analysis of the site.

The design phase of the treehouse includes a three-story structure with a magnificent view of the surrounding landscape. Pete wants to ensure that the structure is integrated harmoniously with the trees, ensuring minimum impact. The first level involves a welcoming front porch that leads straight into an open lounge with a rustic fireplace. Peter creates a cozy seating arrangement and lights up the fireplace, which not only secures the comfortable feeling but also helps lessen their arthritis pain.

The second level of the structure consists of an indoor game area with a shuffleboard table, billiards, and an old jeep-scrambler arcade zone, which only adds to the already incredible entertainment value of the park. This level also has a bathroom so that guests have access to modern amenities while enjoying the treetop view.

Finally, the third level of the treehouse is where the excitement begins. Pete creates a climber's zone with a curved staircase on one side and a ladder on the other that leads to a swaying bridge with a netting floor. The highlight of this level is the zipline that starts from a tree and ends at the other end of the property, providing a 100-foot-long airborne experience. Another thrill ride on this level is the family-sized slide that starts from the helix and lands in a soft landing zone.

The team uses natural materials to construct the treehouse, ensuring minimal impact on the environment. They customize the door handles and other fittings with tree knots and other natural elements to maintain the theme. The interior features a lot of natural wood finishes, including rustic and polished finishes on the walls, ceilings, and floors. Pete and his team also add some décor features such as family pictures, animal sculptures, and other knick-knacks that enhance the character of the space.

Throughout the project, Nancy and John are ecstatic and amazed to observe the progression of their dream treehouse taking shape. Pete and his team exhaustively include them during the construction process and the couple cannot wait to share their beloved treehouse and adventure park with their grandchildren and loved ones.

In the end, Pete Nelson and his team transform this backyard into a fun-filled adventure park that has a magnificent treehouse as its crown jewel. The Thrill 'n' Chill Treehouse is an amazing feat, allowing guests to enjoy the thrill and peacefulness that nature provides all in one place.
