Kids Treehouse Converted to AirBnB Nature Getaway

[@melodykowalski3469]

I have been watching your videos for a few weeks and must say I have enjoyed most of what I have seen. Thank you, your videos make it fun for an old lady who can no longer travel like she is still 18 (being 63). I like your open honest viewpoints. ( you do not sugar coat anything, if you don't like something you do not hesitate to say so and why.) Enjoy your travels!

[@DownieLive]

Glad you like them!

[@karenmackie9665]

You have without-a-doubt the best friends, best family and best wife ever. Happy travels! Thanks for bringing us along!

[@DownieLive]

You got that right! Thanks Karen!

[@donfenton7473]

Honesty, not my first choice but I’m glad you showed it to us. Thank you.

[@DownieLive]

You’re welcome, Don!

[@lindajoy7208]

Oh my goodness that was compact. You only just fitted in the bunk. Lovely set of videos even though I watched them in the wrong order. Your editing is awesome 👍

[@DownieLive]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@MrEzoperator]

Love the unique AirBNB locations

[@amye4087]

Totally my kind of place. Granted, if it was raining all day it would be a bit dark since you might not be able to open the window but love everything about it. Thanks for taking us along.

[@DownieLive]

Couldn't agree more!

I'm so glad!

[@carlmuhm3896]

Michael, Wow Wow Wow what a great escape. Treehouse look cozy and a fun adventure. Thanks for sharing looking forward to the rest.

[@andrewkast4087]

The scenery is great! The treehouse is definitely on the claustrophobic side, although it does beat having to carry and set up a tent. Thank you for the trip!

[@joevermillion9748]

Great Video Mike. Thank You again for taking us on your adventures. Stay Safe and God Bless You

[@DownieLive]

Thanks 👍

[@evercuriousmichelle]

It’s about the same price as staying in a dorm in a hostel but with more privacy and ambience! As someone on a tight budget this is perfect!

[@evercuriousmichelle]

Edit: it’s a bit more than a hostel

[@catlover34fl]

Loved seeing a beautiful and friendly cat greeting you. Living in a forest with clean healthy air is a big plus. I'd want to shower before crawling in that small area to sleep. Are there any outdoor showers set up there? Always enjoy your videos. You lift my spirits. I would love to get a big hug from you, but since I can't I'll just enjoy watching your many videos.

[@DownieLive]

Awww thanks Tommy! Sending virtual hugs!

[@DownieLive]

Thanks Tamara!

[@michaelformaini7053]

Wow! You are indeed blessed. I just finished viewing my local church service livestreamed (it's 11 45am Sunday 5th July here) and the KZbin autosuggestion immediately brought your weekly clip up. I'm not kidding! i'm still connected to St.Christopher's Parish - Syndal website! First reaction- loved the purring welcoming committee - Oh! Just a second - better go and see if my manager has finished her breakfast so I can wash her bowl!.... Yep! Check... she's purring on the mat in the back porch.. Great to see you and Riley enjoying a ride in beautiful British Columbia on a great summer's day.. Reminds me of many pleasant rides on my Honda 4 up the Yarra Valley over 25 years ago. When you went to open up the door of the tree house my first thought was "Where's the racoon?", then when you got inside, switched on the lights and showed us around, I thought "Oh dear! I do hope whoever is on the bottom bunk doesn't pass wind during the night." That would really strain the friendship. The outside facilities are really imaginative. The guy who designed this getaway is really a kid at heart. I loved your acknowledgement of my Aussie reference to the "dunny" when you showed us the thunderbox with a view. Toasting marshmellows by the campfire is an international camping past-time. Great steady work with your drone camera lifting up through the fir trees! And now you're off to Port Alberni for next week's episode on a tugboat. Question; Is the big timber mill there still operating it's logging railroad? I'd love to see a short sequence of that if it comes on your radar. Meanwhile downunder, things have deteriorated in the last week such that some of Melbourne's northwestern suburbs are in lockdown again. Let's say a collective prayer that this virus will finally peg out and set us free again to share the joys you are now experiencing again. Cheers from Michael downunder.

[@DownieLive]

Michael! Thanks for the kind message! I’m not exactly sure which logging road you’re referring to, but I will do my best to bring you as much BC beauty and entertainment I can!

[@michaelformaini7053]

@@DownieLive It's the logging RAILROAD I refer to that served the mill and port from the forest loading points. It may be gone now. Cheers.

[@jbauntie]

While the scenery is beautiful this wouldn’t be a good place for me to stay....for starters I like indoor plumbing and that outhouse looked a little scary. Also sleeping in a space that tiny, with my head so close to the ceiling or second bunk would make me claustrophobic but it’s fun to watch you guys stay there and to see that the place even exists. I watched this series of your videos in reverse but I liked the other three places you stayed. They’d be fun to stay at. Looking forward to checking out more of your videos. Travel safe.

[@DanielDenoted]

I pray that I have your optimism. I'm very pessimistic and I really envy how you can enjoy yourself in the worst or uneasy situations

Loving the channel and this episode to Vancouver Island. I also love the Kawasaki KLR 650. I used to have one and have changed things up to a Suzuki V-Strom, but loved my experiences with the old Thumper. Anyways love all the travel and experiences around BC.

[@DownieLive]

Glad you like them!

[@ajwootten]

I am definitely taking my wife back to Canada. Our good friend, who is a Kiwi married to a Canadian girl and they live in Otawa. But I can't wait to cruise around the amazing BC. Also noted the toilet you featured as part of the kids tree house had a tea towel with NZ birds on it.

[@SpaceHamlet]

I'd definitely stay there--you get two houses for the price of one (the out house and the tree house). My kids liked this one as well. We look forward to the rest of the series. I'm not sure if you're still taking video suggestions but here we go: *from my daughter Walden (5yo) --"sleeping on a submarine" --"sleeping on the coal train that goes by where we live" *from my son Desmond (3yo) --"bus!" --"fire truck!!" (this one had added emphasis and blew his mind a little) Thanks again for making these videos. My kids still joke about "pillow spray." You've inspired Walden to start planning a sleeping car train trip. It's occupied a lot of her time, she's been planning the route, drawing pictures, and selecting meals from Amtrak's menus.

[@DownieLive]

That's adorable Jeremiah! Thanks so much for sharing that with me. I definitely want to do a fire truck too! The kid in me is still there... And I'd love to find a submarine too. I can't wait to hear about Walden's trip!

I love places like these and 100% would stay there and love every minute of it. Anyone can find a hotel/resort/etc., but how often does the average person look for a one of a kind experience like this?! I about lost it when I saw the bulb lights on the railing, then the half door outhouse, legit had to pause the video as I laughed. Love the charm and overall uniqueness, not to mention THAT VIEW! Looking forward to the next video, but that place is so on my list of potential spots for a future road trip of my own some day. This is why you have wiggled your way right to the top of my list for travel vloggers that I keep up with. I always know I will get something fun, upbeat, and quite often outside the box. Thanks for making my morning!
