This is a perfect tiny house! Have you seen the Harry Potter movies? This tiny house is like Hermione's bag, small but incredibly spacious and with everything you need! Like magic! So well designed and so beautiful! And it's set in a very peaceful, relaxing setting. I stayed with my husband and our teenage son and daughter, who are very demanding of their individual spaces. The house was perfect, providing separate spaces for them as well as a wonderful bedroom for my husband and me. The house is full of light, with windows that bring in the beauty of the forest to the comfort and high functionality of every room. And Claire was very responsive and helpful when I couldn't find the email with the door code in my inbox. She replied to my message right away! We had a great time and would love to go back!
