The Owl's Nest Threehouse.

It was an amazing experience to sleep in the woods with the sounds of nature. It was a very relaxing trip for just two of us. We stayed at the Owl's Nest, a perfect place for a couple. Everything about this place was great. We will be back for sure.

Next time we will stay longer!

I searched for weeks to find a unique and different experience to start our annual trip from Calgary, AB 😅We arrived late and I will say Charlon, a breath of fresh air! She made us feel right at home and gave us all the space in the world ;) wish we had more time with her. The Guier+Cooley family, wow what a beautiful place to unwind and be one with nature. My children, my husband and family all loved this down to earth experience. We hope to come back every year! This year we stayed in a flying squirrel! Totally perfect! It sprinkled one evening and sounded like a crazy down pour was going to happen. We felt safe and protected enough. Oh I have so many visions of all the potential of the other camps. (Wish I had my own treeehouse to come back to every year!) We absolutely adored the crafting corner, seriously such a wonderful addition. We all enjoyed making little treasures to leave behind and to take with us and put in Our own fairy garden at home. We are city people there were 7 of us and it was the perfect place to unwind, disconnect and be with the family, really be with the family. I hope this legacy Lynn has created is forevermore a tradition in mine and so many other families! Oh and the outdoor shower in the afternoon was ahhhhh-mazing! The kids enjoyed a poop in the bathroom, what views! We will be back and we’ve already given the link to a few people! :) lots of love and peace. You will see us again! Thank you Charlon for being so wonderful! See you next year! 💜

The Healing of a Treehouse.

First off, I’m not proud to admit but I rarely leave reviews on places, but in this case I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t! My girlfriend and I decided we needed a necessary last minute retreat into nature without the hassle of packing everything to get the camping experience. Her and I were on the ropes of our relationship with a major decision to make how to continue forward. We got very lucky that “A Wee Place in the Woods” had the Owl’s Nest available. Charlon was beyond gracious with navigation, things to do, and really brought positive energy to this gorgeous experience. We loved that they had so many places to have a fire, we spent easily over an hour at the star gazing area, which was our favorite part. The kitchen was fun to cook in and had everything we needed. The sound of the small creek flowing right below us was amazing to fall asleep to. I can’t wait to bring my daughter to this, she won’t believe it! Will be back for sure! Thank you Charlon and the creator of “A Wee Place in the Woods”.

A Wee Place is truly a magical spot filled with love and intention! My mom and I stayed for two nights in the Raven’s Nest and had a wonderful time. We had the place to ourselves and loved spending time together in the outdoor living room, around the fire, and cooking together in the kitchen. Charlon is such a sweetie, and we loved meeting her. We will definitely stay again when we’re in the area :-)

Run, don’t walk, to book this place

There are not enough words to adequately describe how amazing this place truly is! My 14 year old daughter described it as “living in a fairy tale”…my 12 year old son said “it like I’m totally free and peaceful here”…my 7 year old daughter didn’t wanna come home with us! In my own words I will say this. The place is magical. However, it’s not really a consumer place. Don’t go here expecting to consume/ be served…that more of a hotel thing. Instead, this place is where you go to connect, with people, with the space, with the land, with your family, and with yourself. It’s quiet and peaceful but also communal and creative. The host is fantastic! And the sweet and friendly cats are great too. It’s for sure going to be a family tradition for us!

All I can say is this place can heal you. The energy is incredible, the peace one feels is real. Waking up in the woods with no pressures is amazing. A great place for families and a great place for anyone.

Teenager approved

I cannot speak more highly of this place and this family. We were captivated from the moment we drove on to the property and our experience just continued to grow as we explored with Deonna on the property tour. Cellphone reception and electricity was available but for the first time - in a very long time- my teenage children opted to explore, play volleyball and enjoy each other's company- every inch of the property we discovered brought my family more joy from creating our very own art to decorate the pathways to finding all five beautiful and loving cats to playing uno by latern light we laughed and bonded throughout our time there. A true spirit of family and community occupies this place and we cannot wait to plan our next trip - One small word of wisdom from my 13 year old son - " The only thing I would do different is listen to mom when she told me to put on bug spray"...

Wonderful birthday trip

I chose to stay in the Flying Squirrel Treehouse with 3 of my friends for my 24th birthday, and we had such an amazing time. Not only was the property absolutely magical, but one night while we were making dinner in the kitchen I was brought birthday balloons, and on our last morning there we were surprised with freshly made huckleberry scones, lemon curd and clotted cream, all decorated with some small wildflowers. We had such a good time relaxing, playing with all of the cats that come and greet you wherever you are on the property, hanging out in the craft area, taking walks through the trails, even taking a shower is such a cool experience there. A Wee Place In The Woods is definitely a hidden gem, it is so clear the moment you step on the property that so much love and care went into creating such a wonderful space. I can't wait to go back!

Most magical place in ID!!

This is just the most magical land! We had a very warm welcome and felt at home the whole time we were there. You sleep open air surrounded by the forest with the sound of a slow running creek. My kids played and explored from sun up to sun down. They are already begging to go back. We are so grateful to have found this place!

Loved it!

This was such a magical piece of land. I loved spending time with my partner and my little one in the outdoor living room and cooking in the kitchen. Waking up to birdsong and the gentle flow of the stream below were the cherry on top. Plus, the host was so gracious and kind. I definitely recommend staying here.

Enchanting Fairy Forest

This was such an amazing getaway and Lynn was fantastic. We were greeted upon arrival and given a tour of all the treehouses & communal spaces. Since no one else was there, she even let us upgrade to whichever spot we wanted. There were a few very friendly cats who came to say hi and cuddle. The communal areas were really well thought out and there were twinkle lights everywhere at night which were so pretty. Clearly a lot of time and love has gone into creating such a special place. Thank you Lynn!

Wonderful friend retreat

My bestie and I stayed in the cozy Wee cabin for 3 nights. Lynn is so thoughtful and intuitive. She was 2 steps ahead of our every need. There’s no describing this magical forested haven. It’s special on its own, but Lynn’s vision makes being present with nature easy for humans without dampening the vibe. All life is happy here. Lynn has a great sense of humor, too. And a special love for children. Come as you are. Be social or not. Bring a big heart and it will be filled with joy.

I loved staying at Lynn's place. She had well developed the place. She told her this forest loves people on this land and it really is that magical. We stayed in flying squirrel treehouse. Really loved the setup and specially hammock. We were surprised to see that kitchen was also well equipped. Lynn is very lovely lady and would definitely recommend this place. We would like to visit again.
