We felt like we were in a tree fort. It was wonderful. The river was beautiful and Stephanie and Tom were very accommodating to what we ever we needed.

Girls weekend

Our “train car” tiny house was exactly as advertised. Very clean, a small/tiny refrigerator and a microwave. We had everything we needed although a little bigger refrigerator would be nice. The “trundle bed” was a mattress on the floor. We had a great time and our host was great.
