HOW TO GET THERE

Das Tree Haus is approximately a two-hour drive from Seattle via HWY 2, or about two and a half hours if you opt for I-90. The property is located just off Chumstick Highway. 

Cell service can be spotty in this area, so I would recommend downloading an offline map ahead of time just to be safe! If you are planning to visit in winter, you are required to have 4WD/AWD and chains for safe travel.
