Well.... technically all trees are deciduous. It may vary as to when and how they loose their leaves. Some oaks, like live oak, is classified as an evergreen. But they do loose all their leaves in the spring. they grow a new set of leaves in about 10 days.
Coniferous trees are also classified as softwood trees, where oaks are classified as hardwood trees.

Tough situation. Small spruce trees are terrible for tree houses. I have good luck with white pines, though, since they often drop their lower branches anyway which "leafs" you plenty of room to build! Or you can build on posts in the ground next to or around the trees. There are other species of trees that work great for treehouses besides oaks, by the way. Good luck and happy treehousing!

Deciduous means "temporary" or "tending to fall off" (deriving from the Latin word decidere, to fall off). Generally broad-leaf trees including Maple, Oak, Elm, Aspen and Birch among others.

beech (fagus) is a genus of ten species of deciduous trees in the family Fagaceae, which is where the oak tree is.

Broad leaf deciduous is probably as close as you'll get with a comparison.
