I love it! 😃👍🥰
No kids under the age of 12? RIDICULOUS!
@@nathaliemart8409 I do agree: RIDICULOUS.
No kids not on lady!
You should give tours!
I stayed here in February. the view is incredible, and it snowed! Truly magical.
OMG, YOU'RE EXTRAORDINARILY FORTUNATE TO HAVE STAYED THERE AND TO MAKE IT EVEN MORE SPECTACULAR, YOU WERE THERE WHEN IT WAS SNOWING, THAT MUST HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY AMAZING. TELL ME YOU TOOK PHOTOGRAPHS FOR MEMORIES AND TO SHARE WITH OTHERS? 😁
Wauw well done to get yourself something this wonderfull. I hope you enjoyed. 🧚♀️
That’s amazing!!
Where is this… I would like to go there? Help
@@danna993 orcas island
I personally think we've peaked. This gorgeous home in amongst nature, hidden away from everyone else, the lovely wood, the balconies, the views, the bath tub! The adorable bed with the curved wood around it like a little nook, the bookshelf at the top of the living room. I would never want to give it up!
Hidden away until you get to the street
You would if u rented it out for 395 basically 400 a night lol.Me personally i would make a 2 story treehouse not too far from there like this one and rent this one out.Now that is heaven 😄
@@jennaguzman7269 you got the ideas woman!! WOOOOOOOOOO! Tree house here we come! 😂😂👍
The house is gorgeous. I would love it even more with boho furnishing. 💞💞💞💞
Right!! 😍
What a magical home... so sweet of that woman to share it with others. She also radiates kindness.
(I know people pay to stay there. I mean share as in she doesn't keep it all to herself. So others can enjoy staying there for a couple nights.)
Im pretty sure people pay for their stay....
LMFAO, she's not sharing, she's making bank! It STARTS at $245 per night and you're required to stay a minimum of two nights during the off season and FOUR nights during the peak season!
PLUS $210 cleaning fee, a $75 non-refundable damage fee, and an unspecified booking fee. Lmao nothing about this is sweet and kind. It's business; it's purely to make money.
@@AdelineCowgirl... so 2 nights, off-season, ends up costing $785+ booking fee? Wow! Serious money-maker!
Now I understand how she could bear to move out of there. At least for a while...
Wow that's not cool to charge that many fees and I clean my cabin before I leave that's nit Disney
@@AdelineCowgirl ... . & if you bring a pet, that's another deposit/fee... you are charged for dog each day there.
(Can understand a pet deposit, refunded if no damage done by pet.)
I can't believe that such a house exists in reality. This house is amazing.
I live on Orcas and was dear friends with Maria P , the original dreamer- owner-resident. Marri never allowed anyone but herself in the tower, not even her lover, or me , her friend.. She originally dreamed, sited and began with the bath pod as a cloth sided yurt..She required the builders to avoid disturbing every single calypso orchid where the house is. I love how Suzanne has developed this fairy house into a fully equipped home. Marri had a hotplate in the closet with the tiny sink as her kitchen. So nice to see this again, thank you. I so miss Miss MarriP Marri was a fairy queen if ever there was one.
Where is marri now
Thank you for the history.
This owner, Suzanne, used to live there for 8 years. Why stop living there? Where does she live now? Very strange...
@@cristinakimimela2605 Not strange. Sometimes people just want a change, or experience something in their life that forces them to change.
@@DewSocks I imagined those 2 reasons, but why not tell? Maybe economic problems? No, problem. I have economic difficulties and I've been struggling every day and more since the covidiocy 🤷♀️
her smile and the way she enjoys giving us this tour warms my heart
What I would worried the most about is bird poop everything that's why I dont want trees near my home
I really appreciate how with each addition/alteration to the house, she kept everything in the spirit of the house. So many people go into a soulful house and just strip it of any original personality (and sometimes irreplaceable features) in favor of whatever happens to be chic at the time.
It’s beautiful, but at my old age, I have to make several potty runs throughout the night. I could see me being too sleepy coming down from the tower to use the restroom and falling over the rail down into the forest! 😂😂🤪
Didn't you or grandma,ever use a chamber pot?
This, by far, is my favorite tiny home tour. I could see myself living in this house for the rest of my days. My soul would be happy here. 🌸💜🌸
It doesn’t look tiny to me! I love it!
it is NOT a tiny home
"tiny"
I absolutely agree with her. We need to see homes like this being built stop cutting down trees to make room for the home but just build the homes in or around the trees. We all need to go back to nature.
❤️ the home
That's a very Pagan sentiment and I totally agree.
@@victorcoleman949 Why would you say that statement is pagan, when it is our God given right and duty? Please read Genesis 1:28. Nothing pagan about it 😊🙏🏽🙏🙏🏾🙏🏿
The home is made out of trees.duh
Yeah, that would not be affordable for the vast majority of the planet. It is gorgeous just the same.
That house probably used as much if not more wood than a regular home. It's made intirely of wood.
The owner is so sweet, to open up her place to others; to get her first experience over and over again…..🙏🏽
This is what I love. Unique homes. I want more people to build fun and unique homes I think we deserve that
One word: UNIQUE! There's no other home like this one. I love the way indoor and outdoor plants are used.
Oh my goodness, I love houses with lots of trees around. This place is amazing 😍. I love everything about it.
I just think about bird poo 😅
@@nicolarollinson4381 Hmmmmm. . . 😬
@@nicolarollinson4381 😂🤣😂🤣😂
I cannot imagine a more perfect place to live. I would never leave. ❤
I like that guy who designed it and his quote “I work for the spirits, my clients think I work for them hahaha”!!
I really wish more houses were like this. It's so unique and beautiful
I can feel the energy just watching this video. The forest is the most special place. What a beautiful home!!!
This has to be the most awesome house I've ever seen!
Hello 👋how are you doing?
It's absolutely stunning! I could sit on the giant deck for hours.
It's wonderful these tours, I may never see the house otherwise...So beautiful, a true fairytale indeed.
Imagine how beautiful it gets when it rains and snows!
This is definitely a one of a kind type of home. This looks like the kind of house that fairy tales are made of.❤
Reminds me of Rivendale from the Lord of the Rings!!! This is the most beautiful, magical, whimsical house that I have ever seen!!! Sooo special!!! I would love to live there!!!
🍃🤗🍃
My first thought was "Lothlorien!"
Yes a mixture of Rivendale and Lothlorien! It has the architecture of Rivendale and the Lothlorien tree houses with the lights and spiral staircase and of course surrounded by the forest. As if you stepped into this mystical fairy tale that was made real. And then added a Japanese soaking tub for the "muah" kiss of perfection on top.
Exactly!
Rivendell was truly a magical place.
@@2EKgn16
Yes, very magical and very beautiful!!!
🍃🤗🍃
I said it before, and I'll say it again,
videos like this is why I love this channel so much !
What an amazing home .I don’t think I could have left there.The quiete is a part of the charm as well as all the nature the place is sitting in 🥰
Same here I really do love this home so much. Hi Christine how are you doing with your family i do hope you’re safe from the Covid?
I just don't have the words to describe it. I just love everything about it. Everything you film and share with us I appreciate it because I can live my fantasies through your eyes and ideas. Thank you so much.
This is a magical house 🏡… amazing architecture…. Built with ❤️
This would definitely be my favorite house(s). Why would you ever give it up? I could never leave. All of Sunray's work is my favorite.
Gives a whole new meaning to Treehouse lifestyle!! Wow!! I could be happy like that!! I once lived in a country style house that had a skylight directly above the garden style tub and I could stare up at the stars while soaking in the tub!! It was Heaven!! I really do miss it ya'll!!
What a charming home to live in. I am jealous to say the least! I wish I was not so old now because I would love to be able to stay there. It would be wonderful if more places could be built like this one. A neighborhood of tree houses! Maybe 🥰✨
The coolest most unique home! I love it. So perfect! If you had one like it, you'd be on vacation everyday! What a life!
Your place is absolutely gorgeous it is like a fairytale. Thanks for sharing this video. I enjoyed it
The fact that this lady & I share a name and she’s living in one of my ultimate dream houses 🥰 I hope to stay here one day!
"I think more people need to build houses like this" Suzanne, that is definitely happening due to "change" in U.S. cities.
Beautiful!! And I agree, more people need to build unique homes.
What a great home and getaway. How nice it is for her to share it with others!
Makes serious money, so it's worth sharing while can & save up money to move back & never leave it again! Never ever.
Yes...she makes close to $300 a nite...and is Booked Solid...y.plus $200 cleaning fee...so,...you could pay off all debts...then move back in.
So cute and beautiful! Thank you for showing us!
I absolutely love this house! So whimsical and peaceful at the same time! I love Orcas Island! We camped there often as a kid and as an adult I have too! It’s one of my favorite islands!
Me too I feels so giggle seeing this video. Hi Tammy how are you doing today with your family i do hope you are safe from the Covid?
I live in Seattle…..never knew something so magical was so close..in the backyard so to speak! I would definitely love to rent it. Thank you for this tour…
There’s a hobbit house in Washington also. Have you heard of it? Super cute!
@@queenofkings7453 where? is there a video? Wanna see it before go there
@@KimAhrina11 and yes there is a video on TH-cam as well. Can’t remember where I saw it. You can search in TH-cam as well
Orcas Island, in and of itself is a special place. The scenery spectacular, the people friendly, a jewel in the San Juan Islands. There was a moped rental facility close to the ferry dock which is a good way to explore the entire island and should you spend more than 48 hours, you will discover some oddities and quirks endemic to existence on a small chunk of floating land. Advise a good hat, light jacket and familiarity with the art of "layering".
'floating land' ????
@@veronicaroach3667yep...it's called...an,ISLAND...totally surrounded by ocean...I lived there All summer...had lunch on the beach ,with the Orcas
I would love to know exactly how she lived there. Was she on solar power? Stove on wood? Propane? Did she grow things to eat? Now, when it's rented, do the clients bring their own supplies? Is the water source pumped up by electricity? It truly is a magical place, but these things came to mind.
Utilities! To be realistic.
Yes, and in winter I wonder if it is so nice to have to go outside to access every room. It is wonderful for sure, but the more realistic view opens a lot of questions :O
@@endlessstudent3512 It's near Seattle.
We're a temperate rainforest so it rarely snows or dips to freezing. It does happen, but it's rare.
People in Seattle have no idea how to drive in the snow. They take days off work and school if it snows 😅
Rainforests are filled with ferns and moss. Ferns stay green year round.
Go South and you'll hit Portland which gets a ton of snow.
Go to Eastern Washington and you'll get the same cold snowy winters as Montana.
There's very little rainforest left in the US. This is what most of the US looked like at the time of dinosaurs.
Huge ferns and gigantic trees. Videos and pictures don't do it justice.
@@zenwilds2911 I know, I visited Olympic national park a few years ago and I loved it. Like walking in a Fairy tale forest, especially when the sun is shining through the canopies, leaving trails of sunlight. I was there in July though and it wasn't very warm. Thats why I was asking how it is in winter. But I understand, that temparture moves neither up nor down too much. :)
You didn't watch the video did you?
It's so beautiful house that my eyes naturally teared up.🥺
Thank you for the show🥰
I could live here with my husband alone til we die all we need is each other and a place to live peacefully. How lucky these owners are.
I love this so much! The owner seems like a very genuine and likable soul as well 😌
This is house beautiful... I love it!!! The energy is amazing.. such a positive feel to the house and area. The owner is such a positive soul as well... such a lovely place
god bless you my dear lady
for viewing it to the public.
mabuhay from the Philippines.
Wow! This house is indescribable. It is magical, enchanting, rustic, fantasy, and there are so many more words you could use to describe it.
This is the nicest house I have ever seen❣❣❣I would love to live there! We definitely need more houses like that. Pure magic.
imagine walking to your room when its raining
Absolutely gorgeous!! This is a true paradise. It had to be a dream to live in. 💚
Absolutely stunning build, if only we could live amongst Nature more naturally. I love the way the trees physically seem to hug the little round dwellings
Wow, that place is really incredible! When I was a kid I lived on one of the neighboring islands… The San Juans are such a magical place, this takes it over the top!
The photo ops are endless and I bet this place gets booked for a lot of fairytale weddings. So magical💖
A wonderful house with a slope all around.Unspeakably beautiful ❤❤❤
Wow a total real life princess home ! I love it !!!!
Gorgeous!!!!!!! The place, the house, the owner, her heart and soul philosophy, a gorgeous dream!
Love this! Thank you for sharing it with us Suzanne!
My husband and I want to build a tiny house or treehouse. This is just spectacularly both. I would never want to leave. You are so lucky ☮️
I absolutely love it!!! And the smile on Suzanne's face as she takes us through each room clearly indicates her love of the place. Thank you for sharing. 💓
Love it, such a tranquil atmosphere. PS the cool window latches are called monkey-tail latches.
This is one of the finest wilderness houses I have ever seen. Its maintained in a good way, with a cheering face like Suzanne, you could stay a lot here. I like how the rooms are connected together in a Bohemian way. But it works, because it looks like Suzanne has done good job in preserving it the right way.
just a BIG BRAVO to the basic structure, and to this lady how she marvelously , magically added to it.
This is so beautiful, love that the carpenter placed it among the trees. Reminds me of the original version of the movie "Swiss Family Robinson" . Just love that your sharing it with others.
Wow! So enchanting! What a wonderful place! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I live on Orcas. It’s neat to see the creative homes people build. When I was little I remember visiting a tiny home on Yellow Island built out of drift wood.
Whoa! That sounds amazing too!
Absolutely gorgeous! What a beautiful forest home. ❤
Beautiful home. Love the views and creative design.
I'm so happy to find out that there are people living in places like this. I mean, I love my home (living on top of an old house downtown in Mexico City with a big terrace and all). But it's amazing to be this close to nature.
This is so beautiful! Imagine a surprise weekend away there...or living in it. Love, love the books around the ceiling
Would love to see more of this beautiful house during the winter time! Will be a magical sight!
I live in the PNW and despite all the rain it is Beautiful so I especially Love that this Creative Place is here in Washington! ❤️
What a Magical and Special place this is!
this is totally my jam and by far yhe best tiny home that you've covered yet! now on my bucketlist 😊
My close friend owns one of SunRay Kelley's other creations, and it is the most magical place ever. We feel honored to get to spend time there.
I LOVE THIS HOUSE.. JUST THE LOOK OF IT RELAXES ME
This is my favorite house so far!!!! Absolutely stunning! Hope to go and stay there sometime ❤️
Looks so beautiful and magical! I would love to live in a place like this! ❤️
Hello Anna
This feel like reality and complete other worlds have collided, this is so cute! And so amazing!!
What a beautiful forest house I love it.
I love people like this. They find/buy something cool and ultimately decide to share it with others!
I know I say this about every single home I see on your show, by the way Jenna this is my favorite program! And I am in love with this castle treehouse I say I want my vehicle and home connected, but from your show I learned that's not really the best way to go because of the vehicle breaks down you are without a vehicle but you have your home? So definitely they need to be separated! But being a nature girl growing up in the country and still living in the country with nobody around but the sounds of crickets and all these beautiful birds and there's just something spectacular about living in the country! This is ideal for me the natural wood the natural colors the natural everything is what's going to be in my home that will one day be featured on your Channel!!
Such a beautiful and unique house!!! This is a very beautiful place for a relaxing vacation. Thank you so much for sharing with us, and I hope everyone has a Blessed day!!!
This is absolutely magical. In terms of practicality- is there no restroom connected to the tower? So hypothetically one would have to go outside to get to the bathroom in the night/bad weather?
Absolutely magical for a vacation, but I think just adding a toilet/sink to the tower would make it perfect.
That's the kind of house I've always wanted a treehouse!
I just love Nature and
I absolutely love TREE'S.👍🏼
I like the fact that they can do it without harming the Tree!🎀🌟
So glad you enjoyed it and even more glad that you shared it.💞👍🏼😄
i like it because it looks great, a house in the forest, oh it's very very beautiful both the architecture and the style, the design.....i love it
This is the coolest place I've ever seen, nothing else is close. Hands down winner.
Beautiful!
I absolutely love this it is so amazing and beautiful and you're right more builds need to be like this hand crafted so they're built with beauty. I so hope in my lifetime that I get to come and have the pleasure of getting to stay in this beautiful place thank you so much for sharing it with us
Yay a Sun-ray Kelly house !
Wow that is gorgeous. So fun. I love homes that are like whimsical and could be in a fairy tale.
When I was very young, my favorite book was about these tiny people who lived in tiny houses up in the trees... this fairytale house could've easily been an illustration for that book! ❤
Absolutely gorgeous, I could see it being a perfect Airbnb, I don’t know if I could live in it full-time. I don’t think I would like the inconvenience of going outside to get to my bedroom and then leaving my bedroom and go outside just so that I could use the restroom in the middle of the night. Especially during the rainy season and winter. Doesn’t seem logical but as a little vacation house truly magical
What a beautiful video of an amazing fairytale place, living there must be like heaven. The tower bedroom is the best, I love it
Absolutely amazingly gorgeous!!!! It would be like living in a fairytale & feeling like Tinker Bell♥️
Same here. Hi there hope you’re doing well with your family?
Ah! In the area where some of my favorite fiction book settings take place. 🌸💕
Love what you've done!
This was so magical to stumble upon, thank you!
That would be amazing to have a family Christmas there ❤
I was excited at the possibility of renting, my Son and his family live in Seattle and thought it would be a fun place for us to stay during one of my visits, but then I read she no longer uses it as a rental. I do hope this is due to a change she wanted and not because a renter, or more, damaged the property. It is truly unique and she clearly invested a lot of herself into the place. Thank you for showing us her beautiful home.
I clicked the link in the description and it still looks like it’s available.
Sandi, what a shame not to have a stayed in this incredible place. My brother lives in Seattle but I've not taken a ferry out there to San Juan islands, Puget Sound is so spectacular though...
Per the link in the description, it is still being rented out…:
Renting it out is the whole crux of this vid...
There are dates open so it's still available
Absolutely beautiful home...wish I owned something like this.
I like how all her later additions fit in perfectly with the original build.
Just love this!!!!!
