Playhouse and Swing
comments (1) June 2nd, 2010 in Project GalleryBuilt this playhouse and swing set for my kids, Gracyn (6) and Ryan (2). Wanted something different than you see in ever other backyard so came up with this design. It has 3 bunks inside for sleeping. The bottom level bed/stairs to second bunk can fold flat against the wall to open up the floor area for more play room. The top deck is roomy enough for additional play area upstairs. The fire pole is a favorite among kids and for some reason, a little scary for the adults! Underneath the playhouse is the first floor deck area where the kids can spread out in the shade for lunch or crafts. It has quickly become their favorite place to hangout.

Did you find any other websites that helped you figure out what to include? I am coming up empty - except for your design. Best I've seen, hands down.
