SETTING EXPECTATIONS FOR YOUR STAY: Please note the following before booking your stay,
-Longer stays may not be advisable for guest who are not familiar in roughing it or climbing ladders or not comfortable using an outhouse bathroom.
-If you're looking for a deeply secluded, forest-immersed experience, this might not be the perfect fit. Our house which is on the same parcel, is visible from the treehouse.

BATHROOM is located in a separate outhouse, about 50 feet from the treehouse and features a composting toilet. Additionally, please be prepared for Pacific Northwest weather, it can rain at any time of the year.

TREEHOUSE LOCATION:
Treehouse is located in a residential area. It is situated in the wooded sideyard of our ~1.5 acre property. Our house is in close proximity and visible from the treehouse, but it does not interfere with your privacy.

TREEHOUSE DYNAMICS:
- Natural movement: Expect minor creaks, groans, and gentle swaying with wind
- Elevated location: Windy days may amplify noise levels
- Designed for stability: Treehouse flexes with the tree.

OUTDOOR GRILL- We provide propane for the grill outdoors but not the utensils or silverware. Please bring your own if you are planning to use it.

WINTER MONTHS WARNINGS:
- Sink Winterization: Treehouse sink has only cold running water and will be unavailable when temperatures drop to freezing to prevent pipe damage (December to February)
- Restroom/Toilet: Remain available year-round.
- Shower: Remains available year-round. If we ever have to winterize the shower due to extreme cold conditions we'll inform you and reschedule or fully refund as you seem appropriate.
Questions or concerns , check with us before booking your stay during those months.

HOTTUB!
If hottub is critical to your stay, please let us know in advance. We'd be happy to cancel and refund your stay ideally within refund window, if we are aware of any technical problems beforehand. Please be informed treehouse offers a glamping experience with listed amenities. We keep hottub at ~104° F for our guest's comfort and for energy efficiency. We have posted for guest not to change hottub settings and if they have, set it back to 104° after use. If you find hottub in unusable condition due to situations out of our control (guests changing the settings, sudden equipment failure, inadequate time to clean after soiling accidents, etc) we don't entertain offering discounts.

CHILDREN & SAFETY:
- We DO NOT have childproofing or baby proofing products installed at the treehouse. If young children are accompanying you, adult supervision is required for children at all times (Children under 6 years old require extra caution)
- Children must be accompanied by an adult when using: treehouse deck, dreamnet, firepit.
