Enjoy big Salish Sea views in a hand hewn tree-like home on Picnic Point Lake
Full Lake and Ocean views from all 5 floors of this rustic hand built treasure, nestled in nature, this lake waterfront home feels like a tree house. Perched just above Picnic Point Lake, descend rope railing stairs to our bent tree entrance, continue further down stairs to patios and the lake waterfront clearing to relax. Our oasis is a hand built treasure, from the the front door tree archway, the rounded staircase or hobbit doors. A Hand made treasure with 3 decks/balconies or take a stroll to Picnic Point Park for Ocean access. Lots of stairs, and trains which run very often during the day and 2-4 times at night. Ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Loft is best for early risers, as there are no curtains. Children are allowed, however at your own risk, this home is not set up for young children. Our Wabi Sabi style envelops the nature surrounding Picnic Point.

The property has a great view of the sound! It’s a little rustic, but has a full kitchen and a laundry room. The host was responsive, and helpful. There are a lot of stairs, both inside the home and outside. We knew that before we got there, so we didn’t mind. I have two suggestions. First, bring some family fun games, as there is no TV (which was fine with us). The other suggestion has to deal with visiting Edmonds. Some good public parking is at 4th and Main, and Leftcraft is a nice family friendly pub!
We are enchanted with this property. From the heated floors, to the quirky layout and the view - we wish we planned for more time! Would love to return and stay again!

My family of 10 stayed in this house. Everything about this house was fun to explore. The kids loved all the stairs and little nooks. The view was beautiful! We watched a bald eagle chase a duck (the duck escaped). The communication with the host was great. We enjoyed our stay.
We all loved the location and view from the house! Luckily I caught that the double beds were quite small to hold 2 adults in the photos and contacted Anne. I’m glad I did! She provided a queen air mattress which we used. The double beds may be able to hold 2 small children, but would be too small for 2 adults. There were a quite a few spiders and nails in the floor so watch out!
We had a lovely stay in this treehouse home. Unique and interesting with a beautiful kitchen. My knees were objecting by the end of our 4 days stay but it was well worth it. Views were magnificent. Trains came by regularly but we were up above a majority of the noise so enjoyed the rumble and watched and guessed if it was a passenger or freight train. It is a single lane road coming in to the property with some traffic to watch for. Sauna was terrific.
This listing does not do the property justice, this was such a cool stay! Very private and felt secluded. Felt like an MC Esher house with multiple twisty stair cases and hidden nooks and crannies everywhere. Amazing view of the sound! Soaking tub and one of the shower heads was not working during our stay which was a bummer but I'm sure the host will fix it soon. The very top bedroom (loft?) wasn't as sound insulated as the rest of the property so you could hear the train, but the rest of the house was great and you couldn't hear the train. Short walk to the ocean and a nice patio to chill on.

There were supposed to be five beds. Two were futons and both were broken. Four showers with running water, but only two had hot water. A soaking tub was listed, but it didn't have running water. Kitchen sink was not right. Coffee maker was not working correctly. Front door was sketchy. The fire pit was some firewood layed on the ground

Treehouse serenity with water views
We enjoyed the quietude and privacy of trees and birds, with interesting / unusual interior offering Salish Sea views and water access. The kitchen was equipped for us to prepare a birthday dinner and dessert, celebrated in the dining / main room with water views. The home is very near Picnic Point Park, an easy walk, to get to the Sound access. The spiral staircase was the best way to move between floors, when that bedroom was not occupied. Loved the heated concrete floor on the main floor!
We had issues gaining entry and with other aspects of our stay in the home. Anne was responsive, calling about unlocking the door. She also responded via VRBO portal messaging. The home could use better pictures of the interiors and the beautiful views.
Great home for large groups. No elderly or children under 5.
1. Show and mention all the stairs that are in the house. One of the kids fell down one flight. We had to follow them everywhere. 2. Put a street sign showing the way to the front door. 3. Front stairs were slippery and mossy. We had to use the back stairs. That's why we needed them repaired that day. 4. Hobbit door in front is for show only.
5. Bedrooms need something to hang clothes on, maybe hooks. We had wedding clothes with us and no place to hang them.(flower room and another bedroom) 6. An iron would have been nice and a Bissell that works. Plenty of supplies and kitchen items. 7. The throw rug in living area rolls up on the edge, we tripped over that many times. Other than these things, we had an enjoyable time. The kids loved the trains and the ducks.
