OUR STORY
Spending time in the trees brings a sense of childlike joy and safety to all those who are lucky enough to experience it. It has been a dream of ours to bring the treehouse experience to people of all ages that provides all the comforts and amenities of the modern world but in the beauty and solitude of the woods.
ever since we met, it's
been
an adventure
Within days of meeting each other, ten years ago in Arizona, we were taking each other waterfall jumping, rock climbing, and within a year, across the globe. The excitement, and at the same time, solitude, that nature has to offer us is undeniable. Experiencing the spaces that individuals curated for travelers like ourselves sparked something inside of us and we knew that eventually, we would find a way to create and share spaces of our own.
planting roots in the pacific northwest
In 2012, we decided to make our way back to Taryn’s childhood home, in Portland, Oregon. We were excited to plant some roots and build a community of good people around us. We got back in the grind of the 9-5, Taryn working in apparel and Colin in home building, but we also made a it a goal to bring our treehouse dream to life. In 2018, we found our property in White Salmon, picked especially for the trees and the mountain view. The hilly terrain made it challenging for conventional buildings, but we only saw potential for trails and special spaces built into the canopy. It felt so special and magical; this had to be the place.
The mooney FAMILY
During the transition back to Portland, Colin’s family in Ohio were undertaking a treehouse project of their own, and he wasn’t going to miss it. Pete Nelson of Treehouse Masters, brought out his crew to hold a treehouse building workshop on the Mooney’s wooded property. Specialized skills were learned, long time friendships were made, and the treehouse seed was planted.
THE MOHICANS
