Learn more about this land Very remote off grid barn with an outhouse, vegetable garden, fruit trees, and small vineyard that I make wine from. There's a creek that runs through the property with Indian grinding holes. We also have volleyball, horseshoes, hiking trails, and much more! You will be in gold country where you can still find gold in the creek to this day! If you're lucky, you might find a nugget, but there's mostly pickers and fines. The nights are absolutely stunning for viewing the stars with no light pollution. You will have almost complete privacy, with the exception of an occasional over head aircraft. I have only one group at a time.

Weekend Trip to Forest Mountain Treehouse Retreat

Beautiful, cozy, quiet, comfortable cabin among the trees. A perfect spot to disconnect over a rainy weekend. We loved the windows, and exploring the trails with our dogs. Quite rustic, pack like you’re tent camping; but much more luxurious and comfortable than a tent for the winter time. The hosts were responsive and helpful.

Weekend Trip to Forest Mountain Treehouse Retreat

It was an amazing experience! Definitely a great way to seperate yourself from the hustle and bustle of everyday living. The site had amazing reception for us (xfinity mobile). With that being said, it is outdoor living. No electricity, low lighting and somewhat rough terrain for the inexperienced. I went for our wedding anniversary and made an amazing night. This was possible through being overly prepared and we loved it. I would recommend this site to anyone, but with the emphasis with being prepared. Suggestions for the trip: Light, hiking boots, and a nice glass of wine to enjoy the nights sky. P.S. Solen was an amazing host and answered our questions with quick response.

We loved staying at the tree house! The location is super quiet and peaceful, the views were wonderful. Easy to find following Solen’s instructions. We loved taking outdoor hot showers. We brought some with us but Solen had left plenty of bug repellent which was helpful. One thing we’d recommend improving is the bed which is a pad on the floor as the pictures show and we found it quite thin so not the most comfortable but other than that it was a lovely experience!

Weekend Trip to Forest Mountain Treehouse Retreat

We loved our stay at the forest treehouse! It was the perfect fit for our small group and dogs. We loved that the location was close to the river and town. We got a little lost finding the road at first but the directions from the host helped us locate it without issues. There weren’t many bugs and we liked how secluded it felt. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone with mobility issues because there it is on a steep hill with uneven ground. We appreciated the amenities- from the outdoor kitchen to the composting toilet! We would definitely stay here again.

Forest rejuvenation! I had such an incredibly peaceful time at the treehouse, exactly what I was needing to unplug from the energy of the fast-paced world, and recharge in the rhythms of nature. Deep breaths all week surrounded by the trees, the birds, & breeze- my cup is full! Perfect for nature lovers, the basic comforts are covered, so the emphasis is on enjoying the beauty surrounding you. Can’t beat taking a relaxing shower(with hot water!) in the middle of a forest. Solen went above and beyond to make sure I had all I needed, I really appreciated the solar powered lantern & fairy lights in the evening when the sun went down. He showed me around the trails on the property & how to access the yuba from the tree house, it’s an adventurous hike for sure but man oh man the swimming hole was out of this world. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m needing a whimsical treehouse getaway.

We had a wonderful time staying at the treehouse :) the home is very cute and cozy with great views and the property is quite big. We especially appreciated the deck to hang out and watch the sunset through the trees. I feel like Solen goes above and beyond to provide a good experience, providing towels, hammocks, bug spray, citronella candles, and kitchen equipment. There’s a shower and sink with running water and a composting toilet as well. It was quite perfect for two people and a dog to enjoy some peace and quiet.

We rented both the camp site and treehouse. Great camp site if you are into to remote camping. Bring LOTS of bug spray. Stolen was very helpful in leading us to the site and showing us around. 4-wheel or AWD is needed to get to the site. There is a an outdoor shower with hot water, level areas to set up tents, a small table and grill. The treehouse is perfect sleeping for a small family or couple. By the treehouse is a wash station and cook stove. If you prefer to be on your own away from big campgrounds this is a good spot. It’s not far from Yuba access and swimming.

Definitely for real outdoor enthusiasts! who don't mind hiking and bugs. 10/10 recommend! I spent two nights in this sweet little tree house. Solen thought of the little details such as insect repellent and bug spray throughout the grounds, a power charging bank and towels.

Solen was a lovely host, who knows the area really well. The spot is beautiful, if rustic (was fine for my crew, and a great deal!) and a short drive from both Nevada city and the river. I’d recommend bringing bug spray and Technu for poison oak, if you’re going to stay here, and hang out in the area in general.
