in today's episode this is all about tree houses we've booked two airbnb tree houses
in washington state one is 539 a night the other is 215 a night so it's basically a two for one
and i want to know which one of these is better which is the better value which
is going to be the better experience we're about to head to our first one
now and i can't wait to see which one satisfies my inner child more let's go
so here we are at the addams cove tree house it's like a double decker two-story tree house
sort of nestled in between a whole bunch of trees quite a grand entrance let's go
do you like this water feature makes me have to pee
we did learn that the host and his family have been here for generations and generations in
fact he said he has hundreds of cousins in town that's crazy all right let's check it out
first thing you say when you walk in is our little kitchenette area over here we have the fridge and
the microwave and all of the dishes are this very pleasing blue color it's actually really
rare for a tree house to have a stove because of sizing requirement but most of them do at least
have this little kitchenette like we have here here we have our bathroom this is an rv type
toilet so i don't know if you've ever stayed in an rv before but this is how you flush it
here we have a beautiful covered balcony
and this is kind of what made me want to book this place we learned that they have
all kinds of animals here including like coyotes and cougars and deer so it'd be super cool to
maybe see some of that from up here they also have four airbnbs on this property and all of
them have a ton of personality so it's actually huge as we learned on our atv tour when we first
got here which was included oh there's also a pond where you can do catch and release fishing as well
if you're into that then the bed is upstairs come on up this is our lovely bedroom ultimate bed test
nice and springy so that is the interior tour this one is definitely more rustic i love that
the owner built it himself just like so many of the tree houses that we've stayed in so far
so
you can paddle board you can pedal boat it'll be a short pedal boat but a pedal vote nonetheless
some beautiful sunset spots not too far away too i can see the capitol building here
oh you got two nice in the end i'm just trying to show you
you don't need more pain and misery damn is it really a casino in there i see oh my gosh there's
a slot machine amazing we got to see what's inside this casino yeah this is a lot cooler than i am
that's the actual hatchet here's what washington used to cut down his father's cherry treatment
how do you know read the additional information
nice are you lucky here
we're obviously not used to playing
slots
first treehouse stay was amazing and it had me wondering if a fancy tree house really could be
worth twice the price but we were in for such a surprise neither of us had tree houses as kids or
like really played in tree houses so we didn't just book any tree house oh no we booked the
most awesome tree house that i could find and we're about to head there right
now
can we just appreciate this drawbridge for a second so it like reminds me of
jungle gyms as a kid right here we go first thing you notice when you come
in is that this is actually a two-story tree house and there's bunk beds up there
over here is our sleeping area and i obviously have to do the ultimate bed test
oh that's a nice for a mattress too but like a comfy one like a spongy one our little kitchenette
over here we have just a microwave and a fridge here but look at what's inside of this fridge
look at all the snacks and the whole thing is controlled by an echo system
let's ask it to do something echo play forest sounds playing luke relaxing forest sounds
over here we have the outdoor shower big outdoor shower enthusiast check it out it's got a double
shower head plenty of room so we can have a shower party later there is one big reason why i wanted
to book this place so badly among all the other things and that is hot tub time hot tub time
are you excited of course i'm not as excited as i am scared and excited echo turn on jess
magic
as if the tree house wasn't cool enough there was one other really amazing feature
of this particular tree house that we were about to check out this is really pretty
oh my gosh there's so much this is so
impressive
that would be so
okay cool this during the day was super cool but seeing it at night
then you can really get the full idea of like what it would be like to watch a movie here and this is
your awesome theater screen i mean yeah you can watch it from here here yeah so cool okay there's
one more special zipline thing that happens in the morning echo zipline breakfast oh man
what do we got yogurt oats muffins oh look at all this fruit it's good stuff oh they sent
eggs for me i asked for these that was nice got juice oh and look at the the danishes oh my gosh
it is bittersweet to leave this magical place
so now that you've seen both tree houses which one do we recommend let's find out okay
so we stayed in two awesome tree houses one was cheap one was expensive the cheap one was
really cool the guy built it himself it was on a beautiful property it had two balconies i like the
fact that it had running water inside as well and the bathroom inside is always a plus
yeah that was a huge plus for me too and it was just super peaceful it was really like out in the
forest completely isolated but the the fancier one like it had a hot tub it had constant surprises
the fridge was like full of snacks it had that really cool outdoor theater so in terms of budget
you could stay at the cheap place for two nights versus one night basically for the more expensive
place which one do you think is more worth it i think with all the secrets and surprises i think
the expensive one was pretty worth it to me it seems expensive but if you're going to only stay
in one spot for one or two nights not that much based on what you get yeah i think if you're
gonna just do like one tree house if you're going to washington to stay in one tree house
if you're on a budget that more rustic one was awesome it was it was really cool but it's really
hard to beat all of the cool factors of the the fancier treehouse but i would frankly recommend
both totally just depending on your budget you're probably not going to go to washington for two
days or one night if you're going for a week you probably hit boats and it's they're both great
you'll both love it different areas we actually visited five tree houses we did a whole tree
house road trip so that video is coming up next week definitely watch that one to see even more
