Nov 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful treehouse The treehouse is a lovely peaceful place to stay. Very comfortable and cosy, room to spread out, surrounded by leafy greenness. The house is split level. There are stairs from the carport to the front door, and two internal flights of stairs joining the three levels. You are requested to take your shoes off when you enter so bring house slippers. The polished floorboards are a bit slippery in socks. ##### Linda S. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timo H.

What a great stay we had, enjoyed being amongst the trees. Driveway a little tricky in my low car but aside from that, it was PERFECT.
