This property is amazing and unique! We only stayed one night, but will be coming back to stay longer next time. We loved the hikes, the outdoor kitchen and bathtub were fun, and we had a great campfire at night. Our hosts were super nice and made sure everything was perfect for us.

Great stay in the woods.

The treehouse was very cozy and cooled down very well at night. They have great trails and kayaks to use which the dog loved. The hosts were communicative and gracious. They gave us some fresh strawberries from their garden as well. We hope to get back in the not too distant future.
