Reviews

We had a very special stay in this outstanding place. Family vibes, you quickly feel at home. The nature is ALL around, you can hear it see it smell it it’s fantastic.
The staff was very welcoming and always happy to help. The location is incredible, in the middle of the tree. The owner spent the evening talking to us and was very warm. The hotel is huge and the work done to build it is incredible - it truly is a piece of art.
The views are breath-taking and the wildlife abundant. We stayed two nights with our college-aged children and planned for a rest day on the property in between, but there was too much right there to see and explore for any resting!
