Pete builds his manliest (and one of his most expensive!) treehouses yet for a Texas Dad who adores his wife and three daughters dearly but yearns for a place away from the females to spend some quality man-time with his first grandson. This Western-style mancave treehouse boasts over 800 square feet of living space, stone interior walls, a custom cigar humidor, state-of-the-art kitchen, a hidden flat screen TV, bathroom, and (as if all that's not enough) is both capable of sleeping five AND has a massive deck featuring a 600-pound custom meat smoker! It's one of Pete's priciest builds ever! Sprawled across three sturdy oaks, the treehouse will have a rope bridge that will lead from the main area to a high crow's nest, armed with water gun turrets.

An author who grew up in Kenya has always longed to build an African-inspired circular hut treehouse to share with his wife at their home in Washington State. Pete and his crew capture the spirit of Africa by creating a getaway with hand-hewn rustic cedar, a traditional thatched roof, and mud walls, all supported in a cluster of Douglas fir trees sitting 15-feet high and boasting a kitchen and tribal-themed interiors decorated with authentic Kenyan masks and spears from the client's personal travels. A fourth fir houses a spiral staircase, leading to an aerial walkway that includes a special tribute to the couple's beloved French Bulldog, custom made by Pete.

Scottish Sky Garden

A couple in Tulsa has two things in common: they are both expert gardeners and they both have Scottish heritage. They enlist Pete to build "something extraordinary" in their backyard by creating a treetop Scottish cottage 10-feet high in a robust pin oak. Pete creates this sturdy treetop gardeners' paradise to resist the powerful Oklahoma winds and connects it directly to the couple's home via a sky bridge: a first for Pete! The treehouse features custom hanging flower baskets, floral-themed decorative railings, interior cubbies for storing gardening tools, Scottish-themed furniture and even tartan curtains. When all is said and done, the treehouse will be a floating garden in the sky, built by Pete and the NTS crew while donning a new addition to their uniforms - authentic Scottish kilts.
