I found the pop-up mesh playhouses wonderful. They are much less expensive than solid ones, fold away, and come in many sizes, colors and themes. Plus you can move them indoors, outdoors, into the shade, etc.

Try the site www.step2.com. They have great playsets that are very durable. My kids daycare has them and they love them.

When my Daughter turned 3 we bought a garden shed, Works great as a playhouse. Tall enough for adults and kids, and can be used later for storage. She loves it, and it has held up to all the rough play from her brothers.

We have a Bazoongi circus tent that has stood up to extreme rowdiness. (We previously had a popup style house bought at Target that was pretty worthless - it never stood straight and the fabric was too thin). The Bazoongi is a thicker material and uses hard plastic poles for support/structure. Everything fits pretty tightly on it, so it has maintained its shape very well. The kids are constantly driving toys inside of it and dragging every matter of toy inside. The cats are even fond of wrestling inside.

The only downside is that they can be pretty pricey. There are 2 sizes, and you can sometimes find some on sale on their website. You might also be able to find one at a discount place or ebay, etc. We found ours at Tuesday Morning back around Christmas for less than half of what the retail is.
