is it a wonderful view and escape from everyday life. It’s close enough to town for anything you need plus beautiful sunsets. Families with small children can certainly enjoy the space. The owners are very communicative, helpful and supportive.

Hi there! While our stay at the treehouse was everything that my sisters and I wanted for a magical weekend, we were smelling like the bathroom after we left. I could smell it on me Saturday afternoon, but when I got home it was still around. Maybe an air purifier would help. We understand the fragility of the space and appreciate the compost toilet. But maybe the eco-elf could leave some toilet paper the next time around!!We were so perplexed! Thankfully my sis had some in her car. Thank you for loving that little cabin! I used to live in one up the Fairmount ravine in West Seattle! Tricia

This is such a great space and location. We loved sitting on both the main and upper floor decks amongst the forest of trees. And, nothing like a walk down the trail to access the beach. We enjoyed the ourselves!

It was really nice. But I think the composting toilet fan blows up towards the bedroom, because it smelled everytime you entered the room.

Time to focus on being with family away from sports and daily business. Lots to wander and see around Vashon. One time we’ll stay for longer.

Host profile image
We live across the road from this property and are happy to help! We are a family with two young kids and chose Vashon Island for the seclusion, quality of life, and the amazing community, including schools. We are Seattle-Vashon footferry commuters and can attest to the fact that it is the best commute in the area, if not in the US. This is a perfect place to call home for the weekend, week, or longer! Follow @burmatreehouse on Instagram for a peak into life on Vashon Island.

*As the homeowner, I pledge to rent my short-term rental property in compliance with all local rules and regulations, and that as a member in this community I will uphold the standards expected of a good neighbor.
