About this property

❤️Tiny house THOW in woods -odorless compost toilet NEW-hot tub

Try tiny living! It is an adventure.
Our compost toilet challenge: experience our compost toilet with no smell!… Or you get a free night!
There is Wi-Fi which is sometimes spotty. It may be best to use your own hotspot.
The space:
The whole entire tiny house - 160 ft.²
Guest access:
The woods, Picnic table, fire pit, chairs, Gas grill and deck-built with repurposed lumber. Your space is in the edge of our woods, of our 5 acre yard.
Other things to note
Composting toilet patterned after the lovable loo. All of our guest’s experience has been positive! (See our challenge to you)

For the toilet, no water, electricity, plumbing or chemicals are required and it is totally odor free when properly managed. You may love it so much, you may want to try it at home!

The design is very simple and has been used across America and around the world for many years. People who use this setup rave about it and simply put – it’s the simplicity of the design that makes it so efficient.

Here it is: 5 gallon bucket lined with composting bags.
This toilet is designed to be used with sawdust covering material after each use. This eliminates all odor, and helps with the composting process.

A great little place tucked in the woods! It’s quiet and dark at night so you’ll get some good rest. There’s a fire ring out front along with dry and ready firewood. Don't be deterred of the small space, it has everything you need, and nothing you don’t. There are plenty of thoughtful little touches throughout. Highly recommend! Will stay again.

Wonderful getaway in nature

Me and my partner stayed here for a birthday trip for myself and we were blown away by the place. Beautiful places to sit and watch the birds and chipmunks. Host was very friendly and helped with whatever we needed. Highly recommend!

This is for sure a GREAT WAY to test out tiny home life/living for a few days. PLUS a hot tub to enjoy and being able to work creatively in nature, waking up to the chirping of birds and sounds of the bugs! Couldn't ask for more. If there are any issues with booking, days needed to be added on and modified Mrs. Deb was a great help. Thank you for being an awesome and accommodating modating host.

Cute and quiet

Very cute and quiet. We only live about an hour away from here but just wanted a not so far little getaway for the weekend. Perfect size for my boyfriend and I. The only thing was the bed isn’t the most comfortable

Very lovely scenery & tiny home. Kind people who ran the place, they were in and out of there house nearby (thought it was private when I purchased) so that kind bummed us. And the toilet wasn’t bad at first but after 1 day. It was.

Tiny home

This space was perfect for the two of us. Beautifully kept and put together little cabin with all the little things you need. Made for a very comfortable stay. The property owner was attentive and answered ALL (which was a lot) my questions quickly. I will say the compost toilet was a little much for me, but with maintenence and folowing directions it does what its supposed to do and was not a deal breaker. My sister lives a few minutes from this location so I absolutely plan to be back and stay here again.
