Discover Cabanes du Bois Clair, a peaceful cluster of five treehouses nestled in the heart of the Jura forest between Dole and Besançon. Hosted by Vivien and Nellie, our site is designed for guests seeking a restorative escape from everyday life—whether for a romantic overnight, a family weekend, or a longer nature retreat. Each cabin is perched among mature trees to offer privacy, bird song, and the hush of leaves whispering in the wind. Our location provides an ideal balance of wilderness serenity and easy access to regional highlights such as the Source de la Loue and the historic Citadel of Besançon.
Comfort and thoughtful details are at the core of the experience. Guests may choose from a selection of breakfast options—"Petite Faim" for a light start, "Grande Faim" for a heartier meal, a "Local" breakfast featuring regional products for two, or a savory "Salé" option. Breakfasts are prepared with care by our partner baker and delivered in a basket to the foot of your cabin between 08:00 and 08:30. Using a pulley system, you will gently lift your breakfast into your cabin or onto your terrace for a truly memorable morning. Evening meals are also available with local choices including meat, fish, and children’s options, letting you fully relax without searching for restaurants after dark.
Practical comforts include optional bedding prepared on arrival (140cm or 90cm), heating, and the possibility to bring your dog. For a more adventurous wash, choose between a solar forest shower or a studio shower. At reception we offer a small selection of aperitif snacks and local beverages—organic beers, Jura wines, and fruit juices—perfect for an al fresco toast.
For outdoor lovers, five marked hiking trails start near the property, offering varied landscapes and viewpoints. The Source de la Loue is a dramatic natural site for exploration, while the Citadel of Besançon, just 30 minutes away, provides cultural visits with museums and a small zoo suitable for families. Reservations for the same day close at 11:00. Check-in is between 17:00 and 19:00, and check-out is before 11:00.
Vivien and Nellie welcome you with warmth and a family-style approach to hosting. They are passionate about nature and local products and can help you plan hikes, recommend regional sites, or arrange meals and extras to enhance your stay. Cabanes du Bois Clair offers an unforgettable treehouse experience in the Jura: simple, authentic, and deeply restorative.
