“We’ve rented lots of different homes and cabins and this was the best! The bed was so comfy and the place is so thoughtfully and lovingly cared for and decorated. We felt comfortable from day one.”

Roberta and Craig, Seattle, WA

“From the setting’s grandeur to the smallest detail, we loved your home! We were in awe from the second we arrived to the moment of now departing. Thanks for sharing your respite with us. Your art is magnificent! I would buy every piece if I could. We hope to return someday, but we’ll always treasure our time here in eternal memories. Our kids loved Gator and Geeza, the deer were precious, the view spectacular! Thank you for the suggestions in our blue book!”

Doug and Stacy, Portland, OR

“We’re enchanted by your charming home and beautiful setting. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay on our first trip to Orcas. Thanks for opening up your home to others like this. By the way, we love your artwork – the paintings the quilts, stained glass, weavings and pottery. They all make your home very special.”

Barbara and Bill, Henderson, NC & Amanda Murphy, Beaverton, OR

“You have the absolute best spot on the island. Your home is so calm and comfortable and gives a renewed sense of peace and energy.”

Tara, George, Hilary, Pepper, Ft. Knox, KY and Seattle, WA

“…Christina and I were so happy to have a kitchen so well equipped.”

Susan, Palos Verdes Estates, CA

“Your home is very comfortable and beautiful. It is much more inviting and comfortable BECAUSE it is a home, with loving touches and creature comforts, rather than a B & B or a hotel room. Your artwork is beautiful, as well.”

Trasi and Daniel

“A few random offerings about the Tree House experience:

• As we bask in the reverie of our final, flawless evening here we realize we’re leaving a sanctuary of sorts – a place that offers more than it’s share of pure happy moments where there is not longing to be anywhere or to do anything else. You deserve great credit for creating such a place.

• It’s the first time we’ve ever experienced an extended stay in someone’s home without them being there. Especially a place that offers such an intimate glimpse of its owner. You’ve employed great taste in making this, your home, as we appreciate your sharing it with us. It’s made for a richer experience.

• A single deer spent most of the morning seeking that elusive, sunny spot in the back yard. Three joined it that evening.

The ultimate accolade is that we would do this again in an instant, pay more money doing it and recommend it to those friends who would appreciate it.”

Russ and JoLynn Williams, Grand Junction, Colorado

“Our first steps through your door left us breathless as the serenity you’ve created soothed away the worries of our workday lives. I don’t think we could have asked for a better oasis, a better getaway spot to seal our friendships. We will remember this weekend always.”

Alan, Janni, Mark, Wei, Paul, Gautam and Suz, San Francisco, CA

“Surely the Tree House has cast a spell on us. Oh, that we be so bewitched again soon!”

Wendy, Joel and Sasha, Asheville, NC
