We loved our time in the bumble shack! We enjoyed being surrounded by trees and listening to the rain while we drank our coffee under the awning. The loft was cozy and comfortable and the outdoor shower very refreshing.

Its *real* tiny, so be ready for that. Driveway and parking were rather small too but doable. Listing is very complete, and house has lots of cool little features.

Hi, Julie~ You booked a 140 square foot tiny house with a ladder to the loft and brought two dogs with you. We messaged before hand about the outdoor shower, so I thought you understood what you were booking. I am sad that you lowered my perfect rating because tiny houses aren't for you. For any future guests, our place is 8.5 acres of untouched forest except for the trails that run through it and along the cascading creek that these guests did not see because they left after 1 night. Our place is for nature lovers, foragers, trail hikers, people who love tiny houses and especially those who are into the tiny house movement history...and people who want to support our nonprofit orchard. This is not your typical vacation rental and should not be booked solely because it is inexpensive.

The bumbleshack was the perfect place for us to spend a weekend exploring the local lakes and trails. You could even spend the day roaming the property experiencing the creeks and wildlife. Lisa and Jonathan were the most welcoming hosts and you can tell they have poured their heart and souls into the cool vibes you get at this unique location. We even brought home several pieces of Lisa’s own nature inspired artwork that she has decorated the bumbleshack with. The place was privately secluded( but still has WiFi ) , clean , very cute and so close to so much breathtaking scenery. They really made the most out of this space because it has everything you need. Exceeded expectations in every way possible. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. We will certainly be back!

A wonderful representative of the Tiny Home Movement & an opportunity to explore for yourselves a slice of downsized simplified living. The handsome, tiny, efficient, well equipped home, served all our needs in a big way, whether cooking up meals, relaxing on the couch while reading, sleeping in, or stepping just out the door to lounge around our nightly campfires. Think of tiny home glamping! It suited my wife and I perfectly, a romantic cozy getaway for two.We had at our elbow the outdoors, hiking, exploring the river, and with thoughtful adventure gear provided by the host. All that and only a short drive away the charms of small town living with Sylva and others.The property is thoroughly and accurately described, and tiny simple living is not aligned to everyones tastes, the host does a great job so you know what to expect for this experience. The property sits near the main home, but the grounds are laid out so you have privacy with space to yourselves sitting alongside the creek.Our hosts were responsive, helpful, and addressed all our questions promptly. We look forward to future visits!

I couldn’t imagine a better place for me and my dog to stay. Beautiful location tucked up the hill along a creek. Very quiet and peaceful. I really enjoyed the short hiking trail to the creek-side chairs. The tiny house is well designed, decorated with cool art and had high quality amenities. I spent most of my time outside at the patio and fire pit space. Internet was good and I also enjoyed taking an outdoor shower. Lisa gave great check-in directions and is such a kind and considerate host. This is a very scenic area with a lot of outdoor activities. I was visiting to attend a wedding, but I could have easily filled a week or more with hikes, especially to the numerous waterfalls and swimming holes.I highly recommend the Bumbleshack and would love to visit again. It was the perfect place for getting in touch with nature and for a distraction-free departure from my normal life.
