We've built this 500 square foot alpine modern treehouse fully supported by three Douglas Fir Trees. It sits twenty feet above the ground at its highest point, providing sweeping views of Mount Adams. Enjoy all the Columbia River Gorge has to offer and sleep in the canopy of the forest.
Inspired by a mountain lifestyle and Scandinavian architecture encompassing simplicity, functionality, and comfort, we've curated a surrounding of clean lines, neutral palettes, and natural light. Floor to ceiling windows and skylights offer breathtaking views of the surrounding forest, the valley, and Mount Adams. Natural materials add warmth, beauty, and texture to the every day experience of brewing a cup of coffee or playing a game with loved ones. Equipped with heating, AC, indoor & outdoor showers, kitchen, and private fire pit. Cozy up with blankets and pillows in the living room during the winter, or slide open the glass doors to the Mount Adam's view deck and bring the outside in during the summer.

WOOD-BURNING STOVE *seasonal
The treehouse has efficient electric heating and cooling but we have included a wood-burning stove in the design for emergency purposes; when there is a power outage to keep the space warm and the pipes from freezing. From November through May, you may decide to partake in the novelty of the wood-burning stove if you have experience building fires from scratch. We are not able to provide small wood for fitting in this small stove or kindling. If you would like to participate, we recommend picking up some fire wood at the store. We provide a hatchet.
*Wood-burning stove use is allowed November - March. Fire bans typically start in April and last through October.
OUTDOOR SHOWER *seasonal
Take a hot shower on the treehouse deck while looking up at the trees - it doesn't get any better than that. Castile soap provided.
*The outdoor shower is available for use April - October and is shut-off from November - March due to freezing temperatures.
FIRE PIT *seasonal
Walk across the bridge and down the steps to your own private fire pit. Stainless steel pints are provided for fireside sipping. Roast some s'mores and enjoy the stars. Fire bans in Klickitat County typically start in May or June and last through October. It is your responsibility to adhere to all fire bans. There is a water spigot and hose adjacent to the fire pit.
*Fire pit use is allowed November - April pending burn bans which can start as early as April and last through October.
