The treehouses were one of my favorite places in WDW to stay as a kid and I'm looking forward to staying there again.

Disney could not rent out the tree houses as they did not meet current code, but they could use them for housing. Somewhere along the line, some Disney exec got the idea that money could be made if they tore them down and replaced them with Tree House DVC properties, a wise move.
