Outside the ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' franchise, the tree house has become a recurring backdrop element in scenarios that involve [[Donkey Kong]].

Donkey Kong's Treehouse first appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', where it appears as a simple-looking wooden shack from the outside. It appears on both the Donkey Kong Island map and the [[Kongo Jungle]] map. Donkey Kong's Treehouse directly appears at the start of the first [[level]], [[Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country)|Jungle Hijinxs]], and upon starting the level, Donkey Kong automatically launches out of the treehouse.

It is directly above the banana cave, and there are a few steps for going up to the treehouse itself. Donkey Kong's Treehouse does not have much of a role, although the Kongs can bounce from half of a tire on the ground to collect a [[Red Balloon]] above. The treehouse can only be entered once each time Jungle Hijinxs is played. The interior layout of Donkey Kong's Treehouse includes a bed, a picture of two sailboats above it, a portrait of [[Candy Kong]] next to the door, a table with a blue vase containing flowers, and banana peels scattered around.
 
[[File:DK's Tree House DKC GBA.png|thumb|The tree house in the Game Boy Advance version]]
Donkey Kong's Treehouse is designed after a regular cabin pattern, being constructed of wooden planks in its entirety. It is directly above the banana cave, and there are a few steps for going up to the treehouse itself. Donkey Kong's Treehouse is decorated like a home; it has a bed, a picture of two sailboats above it, a portrait of [[Candy Kong]] next to the door, a table with a blue vase containing flowers, and banana peels scattered around. A beach ball and a two large tires also appear in the background. An official artwork shows Donkey Kong inside a tire swing outside the treehouse; the tire swing does not appear in the game.
In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance remake]], there is a [[photograph]] is hidden behind the bunch of bananas, and it depicts a group picture of Donkey Kong and [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] swinging from a rope on the eleventh page of the [[Scrapbook (Donkey Kong Country series)|scrapbook]]. After defeating [[Really Gnawty]], if Donkey Kong and Diddy enter the treehouse, they encounter [[Very Gnawty]] inside. In doing so, Very Gnawty turns around and hops out of the treehouse, an even that occurs only once per save file. The treehouse interior was redesigned to show more discarded items lying on the floor, and the portrait of Candy, a table with a vase, and the bed now all appear against a wall straight across from the entrance.
 
Donkey Kong's Treehouse does not have much of a role, although the Kongs can bounce from half of a tire on the ground to collect a [[Red Balloon]] above. The Kongs are only able to enter the treehouse one time for each time they play Jungle Hijinxs.
 
In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance remake]], the interior layout for the treehouse is different. There are more items scattered on the floor. The portrait of Candy, a table with a vase, and the bed are against a wall straight across from the entrance, rather than at the top left corner. The vase on the table is light green and does not have flowers in it. A framed picture reading "HOME SWEET HOME" is in the background. A large bunch of bananas is in the foreground.
 
The Kongs can re-enter the treehouse more than once for each time they play Jungle Hijinxs; however, once the Kongs collect the Red Balloon, it does not reappear for the rest of the game. A [[photograph]] is hidden behind the bunch of bananas, and it depicts a group picture of Donkey Kong and [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] swinging from a rope on the eleventh page of the [[scrapbook]].
 
After defeating [[Really Gnawty]], if Donkey Kong and Diddy enter the treehouse, they encounter [[Very Gnawty]] inside. It turns around at the Kongs, pants, and hops out of the house in fright. This only occurs once per save file.
 
====''Donkey Kong 64''====
[[File:DKT64.png|thumb|200px|Donkey Kong inside his Tree House in ''Donkey Kong 64'']]
DK's Tree House makes its second appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'' as the starting location of the game. It is located within [[Kong Isle]] of [[DK Isles]].
 
The interior of DK's Tree House looks entirely different than in ''Donkey Kong Country''. It has a leaf hammock instead of a bed. It also has objects from earlier ''Donkey Kong'' games such as [[Cranky Kong]]'s phonograph from ''Donkey Kong Country'' and a red girder from the original ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' arcade game. There are several [[barrel]]s and [[crate]]s, as well as banana peels lying on the ground. DK's Tree House still has a framed picture of Candy. A red mat with the DK emblem is on the ground, and there is a framed photograph of a dolphin (possibly a reference to the [[Nintendo GameCube]], which was code named "Dolphin" at the time). Instead of steps, the Kongs can use a palm tree to climb up into the tree house.
 
DK's Tree House appears in the opening cutscene, where Donkey Kong is exercising as he listens to an instrumental [[DK Rap]] on a boombox. [[Squawks]] appears and alerts Donkey Kong of [[King K. Rool]]'s plans to destroy DK Isles. DK's Tree House does not have any other role in the game.
 
Early screenshots of the game showed that there was going to be a shower stall in DK's Tree House with a poster of [[Banjo]] and Kazooie on it. The shower and posters were removed in the final version of the game.


Though the [[Cranky's Cabin]] theme plays in DK's Tree House in the original version, the Game Boy Color remake plays the title music from ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', while the Game Boy Advance remake plays Bonus Room Blitz.

The interior of what is presumably the same house is the background of the ending credits in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 3]]''. The area is considerably tidier and lacks the Candy Kong portrait. A tire swing is also inside the house.

====''Diddy Kong Racing DS''====
[[File:DK's Tree House DKRDS intro.png|thumb|Diddy sitting outside of his tree house in the intro for ''Diddy Kong Racing DS'']]
DK's Tree House{{ref needed}} briefly appears during the opening cutscene of ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]''. Diddy is sitting on the porch of his tree house, and [[Squawks]] gives a letter to him written by [[Timber]]. In the letter, Timber asks for Diddy's help to kick out [[Wizpig]] from [[Timber's Island]]. The tree house appears to have an entirely empty interior, and unlike other games, a wooden ladder is connected to the tree house.

DK's Tree House reappears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. It first appears in the opening. Diddy jumps out of the window to check on the [[banana]]s from the [[banana hoard]], only to realize that they are stolen rage. When Donkey Kong goes out on the deck to hear what Diddy is complaining about, he gets approached by Kalimba [[Tiki Tak Tribe|tiki]], causing him to step back into the tree house. Kalimba tiki unsuccessfully hypnotizes Donkey Kong. The first level, [[Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Jungle Hijinxs]], starts right after the opening sequence, and every time the Kongs start the level, they must repeatedly punch Kalimba tiki. After Kalimba tiki is hit enough time, Donkey Kong kicks down the wooden front door and kicks Kalimba tiki into the bushes. If the Kongs enter DK's Tree House, they can obtain a [[Red Balloon]] inside.

The tree house's appearance has changed again, as it is now smaller, its walls are made of bamboo, it has a round straw roof sustained by wooden girders, and it has small doors and windows framed with wood. It has a wooden deck wrapping around its exterior and a banner of the word "KONG". The tree house is elevated above the ground by long, wooden rods. Near the ground is a smaller wooden deck with a tire, and bouncing on it allows the [[Kong]]s to reach the deck. The banana hoard is relocated to a small alcove under the tree house.

In the [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|remake]], it is shown that it is actually a cabin that is not located over a tree, and outside is a simple grass field with trees, suggesting that, at least in this version, it is a separate wooden house in a different location.<ref>Nintendo of America (January 17, 2024).

==Trivia==
*Incidentally, Donkey Kong was shown to live in a treehouse in ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'', four years before ''Donkey Kong Country'' was released.
*All three versions of ''Donkey Kong Country'' have a different musical theme for the tree house. The SNES version plays [[Cranky's Cabin]] theme, the Game Boy Color remake plays the title music from ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', and the Game Boy Advance remake plays Bonus Room Blitz.
*[[Nintendo of America]]'s product development division, [[Treehouse]], is codenamed after Donkey Kong's residence.<ref>[https://kotaku.com/inside-the-treehouse-the-people-who-help-make-nintendo-1301809672 Kotaku: Nintendo's Secret Weapon]</ref>
