Welcome to Our Sustainable Treehouse::
Discover our 4 story eco-friendly treehouse fully designed and built by hosts Marlena and Eugene. Enjoy a bottom floor kitchen and bathroom and sunroom, 2nd floor bedroom, 3rd and 4th floor rooftop decks, fire pit and loop trail through the forest. Although there will be no retreats or events happening during your stay, the treehouse is within 100 feet of our retreat center and separated by a privacy fence.
**Note for 2024 Eclipse**: While the treehouse is its own private listing, it is within close distance to our event center, where there will be 13+ other eclipse enthusiasts staying and camping. While we will strictly enforce quiet hours, if you're outside the treehouse, there's a high chance of hearing voices and laughter and, if you're looking, seeing others.
