We can't wait for you to experience this tiny house in the woods! Sunrise brings rays of light over Mt Pilchuck. You may see deer, squirrels, chipmunks, woodpeckers, and bald eagles throughout the day. As night falls listen to the distant calls of coyote or spot a curious raccoon, opossum or owl. Enjoy a hot bath or head up the spiral stairs to enjoy a book in bed.
The intent of the design was to create a non-traditional romantic floor plan unlike anything else knowing this would be used primarily as a couples retreat.
The 1st floor includes a small kitchenette, cozy living space with stone fireplace, HD TV, and a luxury soaking tub!. The 2nd floor is where you will find a high-end queen memory foam bed. Yes, this is a 2 story treehouse! On the second floor there is also a children's sleeping loft which overlooks the rest of the bedroom. This loft is suitable for a small child but headroom is only a few feet. We found it also requires some youthful agility and adult assistance to get up and down the ladder I custom made from iron pipe.
A beautiful knotty alder sliding barn door leads from the bedroom to a private restroom with pedestal sink and toilet.
We call this a treehouse but it's technically supported by posts (nicer to the trees) and it is built on a hill, so although it is high up and amongst the trees, you are never more than a few feet off the ground.
The kitchenette is equipped with a coffee maker, mini fridge, induction cooktop, microwave, mini crockpot, and enough dishes, glasses, and utensils to enjoy a simple meal or drink. We just added a BBQ on the front deck if you prefer to cook outdoors.
The soaking tub on the main floor is near the fireplace and TV with free Netflix. This luxury tub is a favorite amongst guests! You can literally be soaking in the tub and watching TV by the fire while your significant other is preparing a meal in the kitchenette all in the same space!
Voice controlled color changing lightbulbs set a custom tone with presets such as a Savannah Sunset, Spring Blossom, and Arctic Aurora.
The woods are private but the main home overlooks the open yard spaces. We are located on approximately 3 acres. The neighboring homes are on 3-20 acre lots.

Prior to check in you will be given the keyless entry code. From the time you arrive, we will completely respect your privacy and leave you alone to enjoy your experience. That being said, because the treehouse and our home share a 3 acre lot together, we are still readily available and close by if you need anything. We also have a local manager just in case we are out of town. The majority of the treehouse windows look into the deep green forest. The front side faces toward the second story and roof of the main house. Yes you are above our 3 story home!
Although tecnically not supported by trees, the treehouse sits at the back of the hillside atop a small 10ft cliff and then about 6 ft up on stillts. So allthough you are high up, you are never too far off the ground. There is a grass yard that seperates the treehouse from our home.
No ladders are required other than for the children's loft. You are welcome to stroll the grounds. It is quite and peaceful but you may hear one of our cars depart or arrive throughout the day. At times you may hear seasonal yard maintenance. Most of the grounds are in view of the main home.
When you arrive you may park anywhere in our circular driveway. From there you will find the tailhead (Sasquatch Lane) located by the red barn. The trail is about 200 feet long and ascends about 50 feet up a wooden boadwalk and stairs.

The treehouse is fully insulated and has heat for year round comfort. We have fans available upon request for the summer but it rarely gets too hot here in the hills. We are at about 600 feet elevation. Our property is on 3 very private acres and surrounded by 100s of acres of state land on two sides. Although the property is private, the main house and treehouse can be seen from each eachother and the main house looks over most of the grounds. Sometimes the surrounding land is used for dirt bikes so you may hear that in the distance. It's rare but we want to tell you it's possible. The grounds offer incredable views and are lit at night. We are high up on a hill and the star gazing from the yard can be quite something on a clear night. You will have full access to walk the park like yard or walk the woods.
