Unique Stay
Enjoyed the unique experience. Beautiful place to stay and absolutely beautiful accommodation! The literal only thing I didn’t like is how close you were to other cabins BUT you couldn’t hear or see them once in your little space. Full effect of a tree house with different compartments to the house. Adorable!

Relaxing Stay
Just my wife and I rented Spruce even though it can sleep many more than just the two of us. It was a relaxing stay with our dog. We only stayed for two nights and found the property to be a perfect place to get away from it all. Of course the indoor space is pretty small, so not sure how well a large group would do in the winter time if they could not use the outdoor space....but we were there in perfect weather and found it was just as scenic to sit indoors as out.
