Loft bedroom, upstairs: my favorite place. A treehouse hideaway under a wood-clad ceiling, with mushroom wallpaper and treetop views from three windows.

OUTDOOR LIVING (A GUEST FAVORITE)

This is where most guests spend their time. Coffee on the covered patio while rain runs down the chain, dinner on the sundeck, then the fire pit as the garden lights glow through the trees.
-Benches, a picnic table, chairs and hammocks around the property
-Life-size games and a play area
-The property is not fenced and wildlife is all around, so keep pets close
