Absolutely loved it here. The place was exactly as listed. There was so much to do on the property that we didnt even know about until we arrived. We will for sure be back next summer and be staying longer so we have time to do more things.

We really enjoyed our stay and the property was beautiful. Only caveat would be that the restrooms were downstairs and the weather didn’t cooperate. Would definitely book again.

The treehouse was amazing! The hosts were so sweet. The only thing i would mention is that the rules for swimming, such as life jackets should probably be posted online. Also, there are amenities to cook, such as a plugin 2 burner and a frying pan but no cooking utensils. Other than those two things, our stay was amazing. The kids, 9,14 and 16, loved the zipline and ponds. Will definitely be visiting again in the future.

Stayed with our kids and we all absolutely LOVED everything about our stay at the Treehouse. Hosts were friendly and communicative. Treehouse was impeccably clean. It was so nice to have 2 very clean bathrooms and the shower was very spacious. We cooked outside underneath the patio, set up our projector and watched a movie. Very peaceful and tranquil location, great for a quiet getaway. My husband and I want to come back just us for a nice quiet getaway. Kids are begging to come back as well. A great getaway from busy city life. Again, everything so clean and very nostalgic. Thank you for an amazing stay and thank you for the fresh farm eggs! Simply amazing.

This place was amazing, perfect for a getaway for myself and my children ages 6 & 4. They were equipped with tons of life jackets in all sizes. The lake fun (trampoline, rock wall and floating platform were perfect for me to feel safe for them in the water so I could be close enough while they played. The tree house was beautiful and fun with the slide for the kids and the loft that gave so much room to be comfortable in. There was a fire pit with dry wood for us to start a fire and cook steaks and do s’mores at night. The “hidden playground” was so much find to explore to find and the kids couldn’t believe their eyes when we found it. It was so big and so many activities for them to enjoy. We were able to explore the beautiful gardens, where we met the wonderful host Austin who showed us where to find the “fairy tree” and the kids were even able to decorate parts of it. The chicken palace was awesome too (minus one of the roosters attacking my son but is was only a few pecks) but all the knowledgeable life cycles of the egg to chicken were fun to read and the kids got to learn some new things. Not to mention were were able to enjoy some very yummy and fresh eggs that were left for visitors. All around amazing place and stay, so much so that the kids asked if we could live there. Haha. Highly recommend and will definitely be back again. Thanks very much for this little adventurous getaway we’re were able to enjoy here, oh and the red elephant was a pleasant welcome

About the host

Host profile image
We're from Dallas and now live on a farm where we enjoy gardening, working the land, and traveling whenever we can. Hosting gives us the chance to meet new people from all walks of life, which we truly love!

Why they chose this property

The view from the lake is incredibly relaxing, especially in the early mornings. We love watching the sunset from the garden, spotting birds at the beaver dam, and taking peaceful walks along the wooded trails. It’s quiet, and nature-filled and it feels like a retreat.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property special is the combination of natural beauty and unique spaces. We have a peaceful lake with a beach for swimming and relaxing, a fun hideout playground for kids to explore, and the Learning Gardens—a vibrant space where nature, community, and creativity come together
