Such a cool place to stay

Only stayed one night but wish I had longer. I’ve never been as comfortable while hanging from a tree. Plus the dark sky was great for star gazing

Mike was really good at communicating and laying all the details! The back up Julia was also really responsive! This was a unique experience we’ll repeat in the future and recommend to friends traveling to the area! Thanks

Overall it was an Ok stay. Unfortunately, in my case the hot water was not working even when I was told it was fixed. Good toilet & Shower features. I really liked the concept of the Tree Pod, but I do believe it could have been cleaned better. I did love the wooden construction of the space connected to the pod. They offer pillows, but I did bring my own. Some of the pillows looked stained & it is unknown when they were last washed or steam cleaned -or the fitted sheet/mattress. I recommend bringing your own sleeping bag or blankets. There was no remote to the fan, they had mini fan-less fans connect to a USB outlet. There is only one outlet with two USB & two C plugs. I was going to use the communal grill, but in its current state I decided not to. The grill needs a thorough deep clean. The parking is great. The roadway up to the site needs to be fixed, very uneven and multiple potholes it is best to have a SUV or Truck. I wouldn’t recommend it for the price. Stars and Sky are beautiful.

Regarding the hot water, you did let us know that you were having an issue. Our cleaning crew made an adjustment to the water heater, and it was working properly afterward. You did not report any further issues with the hot water during your stay. Based on what we found, it appears there may have been some confusion about how the system works rather than an ongoing problem with the water heater. We wish you had contacted us again if you were still having trouble so we could have helped. We also want to clarify the bedding. We change the sheets and pillowcases between every guest and provide clean, comfortable sleeping bags. Our cleaning crew thoroughly cleans the Tree Pod between every stay. The community kitchen and grill are clearly described as a shared space, so unfortunately another guest had used the grill and failed to clean it afterward. We apologize that you encountered it that way. Had you let us know, we would have been happy to take care of it. The propane grill can also be cleaned by heating it up and scraping the cooking surface. As for the road, we recently had another guest leave a review specifically stating that they had no trouble driving up in a Nissan Altima. The road is a mountain road with some uneven sections, and we provide information about the road in our listing so guests can decide whether the property is right for them. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful stars and sky, the parking, and the Tree Pod concept.
