I had a really cool tree house my dad built me when I was a kid. It was about 10-12 feet off the ground, set on 4 posts with a ladder to get to the main deck. Once on the deck, you could go inside, sit at a desk, pop open one of the windows, or climb up on the roof. I have plenty of fond memories hanging out with my best friend in the thing. It was awesome.

But absolutely nothing compares to some of the insanely creative and obscenely cool tree houses on display at Toxel.com. I never knew what I was missing until I saw these.
