The Izer Treehouse is an incredible off-grid retreat. Nestled in a secluded setting amongst the tree-tops overlooking the Bull Run River Canyon, it's the perfect hideaway for couples seeking a romantic escape or BFFs looking for an adventurous getaway.
Follow the path and bridge through the trees to your own little treetop oasis. This standalone space rests 30 feet above the forest floor and is perfect for reconnecting with nature and getting away from real-life.
The space
Outside: Through French Doors guests will find a stunning back deck perched 30 feet in the air, offering a birds-eye view. Relax with a glass of wine at the scenic bar-top overlooking the canyon while taking in the clean air, sounds of the river below and enjoying the star filled skies. A tiny pellet stove keeps you cozy and warm on the deck. (Note - the pellet stove can not be used during burn bans).
Inside: The Treehouse has a luxurious queen-size bed with a memory foam mattress in a lovely upstairs loft. Soft cozy sheets and plenty of warm blankets have been provided for you to snuggle up in. In the main room you can cozy up with a good book or game (several are provided for your enjoyment) or just enjoy each other’s company on the comfy love seat. There is a charming “Kitchenette” area where a stunning rock sink with non-potable water can be used to rinse dishes or wash your face. A variety of teas, hot chocolate and a French press are provided along with fresh water for drinking. Pots, Pans and a kettle are provided for use on the deck camp stove. A propane heater keeps you cozy and warm inside.
The Treehouse is off-grid so there is no TV or Wi-fi to distract you from the wonderful surroundings. Limited Power is provided by rechargeable batteries. You will have about 7-8 hours of power per day. If you run several things at once, including the lights, the batteries will run down faster so use it sparingly. If you run out of batteries we ca swap them out for you. A lantern is provided as back up along with a couple headlights to help you navigate to the outhouse. NOTE: The only cook source is the bbq outside on the deck.
What You should bring:
Food, drinks, a cooler & ice, extra flash-light. A charged blue-tooth speaker if you want music.
Extras:
We also offer access to a private indoor bathroom and shower across the street and a short walk from the treehouse. A map will be provided. You will also have access to our Private Sauna and you will be able to enjoy our private beach and firepit.
Other things to note:
Please note, this is a Glamping experience, not a hotel stay.
In keeping with its eco-credentials, Toilet facilities are provided in a composting sawdust outhouse that is located separately, a few meters away nestled amongst the hillside and trees. Please note **there are no showering facilities on site** but you will have access to a private shower across the street.

Neighbourhood
Just taking a stroll up our road is an outdoor adventure on its own. You will pass several organic farms, cows, chickens, pigs & horses. Or walk down our road to the Bull Run River bridge for a steeper walk and lovely views of the river. If your really adventurous you can take the path under the bridge down to the water and check out the caves along the river bank.
Getting to my home
The closest airport is Portland International Airport - 40 minutes away. From the airport you will need to rent a car or use a ride-share option to get to our house. The Seattle/Tacoma airport is three hours away. You would need to take a train to Portland from there, and then contact a ride-share to get you to our home.

Elyse
Married Empty Nesters from the Stunning Pacific Northwest. We live on 2 acres with a Trout Pond and a private beach in an area that is rural but still close to some spectacular site seeing. We are 40 minutes away from MT Hood (the only year round ski Mountain in the USA). We also have great local Mountain Biking & Hikes. We are close To Multnomah Falls and Portland Oregon. We would love to travel to visit our 2 college kids in Washington DC and Oahu Hawaii or most anywhere abroad. We are new to home exchange but are Airbnb superhosts for our Glamping Treehouse.
People Like Us is the world's most trusted home exchange community. We believe in sharing, trust, generosity, respect, communication, equality, cooperation, honesty, hospitality, friendship, flexibility and adventure. We take pride in our homes and we care about the environment in which we live: our village, city, country and our planet. We care about the ethos of home exchange and we do it because we love the experience and the friendships that it generates.
