The red-hued wood and compact shape of Treehouse B1 resemble the small build and auburn fur of an American red squirrel. Like the cabin high in the branches, these squirrels primarily live in trees, where they build nests and forage for food. Tamiasciurus hudsonicus, as they are scientifically known, is one of three species of tree squirrels. From Alaska to the Rocky Mountains, American red squirrels inhabit forest environments across Canada and the northern United States. Although these red-tinted squirrels are not endangered in North America, they play a vital role in the regeneration of the ecosystem. By collecting and hiding nuts and seeds for winter food, the American red squirrels are planting new trees.

Indigenous American cultures consider the red squirrel to be a symbol of trust and nurture, and a guide for the natural world and living in sync with the seasons. Live like the American red squirrel for a few days as you are perched high in Treehouse B1. The circular window from the elevated platform is the perfect vantage point to observe life among the trees. The B1 cabin offers a cozy, nurturing retreat for rest, reflection, and restoration after a day of adventures in the forest.
