Treehouse Vineyards

Did you know that before prohibition, North Carolina was the largestwine producing state in the United States?!! Hello, my name is Phil Nordan, and that fact has intrigued me for a long time.  If North Carolina was so good then, why not now?  We have had grape vines on our Monroe, NC farm for over 50 years and have been making wine for personal use for many years. As a kid growing up on a farm in eastern North Carolina, I built many treehouses.In the spring of 1999, I decided it as time to build a treehouse for adults - for my wife, Dianne, and me.  This treehouse thatwe now call Date Nite sits 30 feet in the air and overlooks the vineyard. The lower level was a treehouse for our daughter when she was little. Since that time, we have received a lot of attention from newspapers and national magazines about our treehouse.  It is equipped with a ceiling fan, couch, an outdoor fireplace, phone (we don't always answer it), rocking chairs, and much more.  The two porches allow breathtaking view of the vineyards, our pond, and our horses.
