Treehouse Place at Deer Ridge! "The Ole' Mill"

We can't wait for you to experience this tiny treehouse mill! Our property has been featured by Outside Magazine as a number #1 destination in WA!

Sunrise brings rays of light over Mt Pilchuck. You may see deer, squirrels, chipmunks, woodpeckers, and bald eagles throughout the day. As night falls listen to the distant calls of coyote or spot a curious raccoon, opossum or owl. A gentle seasonal stream turns the fully restored waterwheel adding to the overall serenity.

Enter the mill through the large French doors where you will find a luxury bedside soaking tub and high end full size Murphy bed. Soaring ceilings give the mill an open feel. At the back of the space there is a kitchenette with everything you need to prepare a simple meal along with a table and stools custom made from wine barrels. There is a private toilet room with an ingenious incinerating toilet and pedestal sink. Upstairs you will find a cozy loft which is the perfect space to cozy up with a loved one and review the day's photos or snuggle up with a book.

A covered cedar deck graces the front side of the building with plenty of room for seating and a BBQ. A large cedar tree pushes up next to the deck and sometimes provides home to many species of birds creating the perfect soundtrack for relaxing. There is a private hot tub near the fire-pit which is a wonderful place to take in nature!
