Great spot, great host, freeze warn
The ammenities offered, were great in theory. The water for the sink/toilet water reservoirs were frozen the entire time. The sleeping structure that was said to have a heater 'just in case' was far outmatched by the unsealed floors and opening on the roof, that allowed for all the heat to escape. I additionally brought another heater. With both heaters running, it got to a warm 38 degrees inside the structure.
This would be a great location for spring, summer, fall. But anything lower than 50 degrees for your adventure will be miserable.
The host seemed wonderful, I just imagine they have not tried their own retreat when the temperatures have dropped. Small tweaks will get it where it needs to be.
-Seal the structures- each floor board had a 1/8 inch space which allowed for all the cold air to come up from under the structure.
-Seal the areas near the roof, so the heat used created inside actually stays inside.
-reservoir warmers to ensure the water for the ammenities does not freeze.
Again, this is an amazing spot. Just needs some fine tuning to ensure it is a safe and warm stay for the adventure.

Hemlock Hill Hideaway is a great, private little spot to get away for a few days. It is nestled quietly in the shade of the trees. The amenities are nice, and the beds slept well.

Cool space! Greta was accommodating, communicative and provided a clean space for our family.
The treehouse is awesome for a couple or even a family with older kids. We didn't use the shower tent but there is another utilitent with a toilet and pumpfoot sink, which is a nice accomodation.
The location feels far away, in a good way, yet is close to all things Boone; both adventurous and the town/city features.

mother/daughter easy camping
Even better than I expected. Originally it was the slide and the bathroom that sold me. Having a place to wash your hands while camping is huge. It was more comfortable and easier than tent camping, especially in early April when nights are cold. My daughter loved the slide. We would definitely go back.

Tree house fun
This place was so fun and unique nestled in the trees my teenager was really amused by the set up and that’s not easy to do :)
