“A relaxing getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 July 2011

I know Vancouver well and like Kerrisdale, the boulevards with gardens are pretty. I didnt meet Barb or Bob and it was very quiet when I arrived..Just pressed my number on keypad and entered. Had a little trouble with the Asian separate toed socks as I had a hip replacement not long ago but managed as the seating is good in hallway. Very nice Buddhist decor...my room was lovely, black/red and very clean..a long shelf I liked for my stuff by the bed. Note told me to call Barb as they were out. So I did..didnt need anything but afterwards couldnt figure out how to op the TV but had a good book. Had a bottle of wine which I sipped in the nice twisted stemmed glass which I tried to buy the next day but couldnt find any..the traffic was right outside but didnt bother me at all..very quiet through the night and I enjoyed the deep bathtub..bed was fabulous..firm but pillowtop soft..amazing as I have a bad back ..at 8am I was up and went upstairs for breakfast, a lovely breakfast, fresh yogurt and fresh berries, kiwi, then little cinammonbuns with tofu sausage as Im vegetarian. Have to tell them beforehand. The server Jensen, doing her practicum in hotel industry was sweet. Loved the frenchtoast..didnt want cereal..you can ask if you dont want something..Barb is gracious and lovely..would go again. didnt see Bob. I liked the shrubbery outside my room..private.

Room Tip: Although I was on main floor in front near main street it was pretty quiet but would get another roo...

Your review is so informal and relaxed. Thank you!

We agree that Kerrisdale is lovely. At any time of year, it’s lush and green but right now all the flowers are blooming so it’s even more beautiful.

We’re glad that you found it easy to enter using the keypad. We love the Japanese Tabi socks because they work great with flip flops! We advise our guests in our confirmations that we provide Tabi socks. Of course our guests are welcome to bring their own slippers if they prefer.

We’re glad that you liked the Far East Room2. Though on the street side, it’s quiet with lots of green outside the window. There are several large trees between the room and the street. In addition, the house was specially insulated when we built it for sound reduction. We also have California window shutters which provide noise reduction at the windows. Our beds have firm mattresses with memory foam toppers. Total comfort even for sore backs! Our extensive TreeHouse Guide located in all guest rooms has directions for how to work the flat screen TV/DVD player.

We’re sorry that you were unable to purchase the funky wine glasses that are provided at A TreeHouse. They are hard to find, even by us!

Thanks for the nice comment about our student helper. She is enjoying meeting all the guests as she completes her practicum.

Please do come see us again!

“Nice place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 June 2011
1
person found this review helpful

In early June I went on the Internet to look for a clean, and comfortable B&B to spend 2 nights while visiting my daughter in Vancouver, I came across the treehouse at West 49 , and even though it was a little farther than I want to I took it because of the good report on Trip advisor, I thought it is good on my part to write a revew, after all everything sayed about the Treehouse it is correct.
The owner made me feel at easy by living at the door an instroction letter, to how to get in and where to find things, taking shoes off one of the things i do like, because it means to me that the house is clean, and it proved to be the truth, breakfast was very good,and served by the owner Barb. as well as prepared by her. Kerrisdale is a very nice neibourhood area, and it is very nicely kept, the area offer exclusive residence to the MILIONAIRES, but they do not mind to share with the rest of the crowd, Barb and Bob seam to be there also, although I din't meet Bob, He must be a nice person as well as Barb.is, would I racommend this unic B&B? yes of course, You will relax and enjoy the calm atmosfere and ambiance of the 3 story home as well as the cleaness of the room and the substancial gourmet breakfast in the morning. I will racommend this place to others and I will be back again some time in the future,

“Very comfortable bed, huge and delicious breakfasts!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2010

Comfortable accommodation and imaginative, beautifully prepared and presented breakfasts. Barb was an attentive and helpful host. This was our first experience of a Canadian B&B, and a hard act to follow! Highly recommended.

“A Treehouse was a highlight of my trip!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 October 2010

I had never stayed at a B&B before A Treehouse, but now the standard has been set high! I don't expect anything to surpass this experience. First of all, Barb and Bob's home is lovely and very welcoming. The rooms are well appointed with a large flat screen, dozens of dvd's to choose from, extra blankets, robes, umbrellas, hairdryer if you need it and even your own refrigerator and microwave! Anything you could possible need was available. There is also a booklet in each room detailing places to visit, things to do, even suggestions on restaurants. But the best part was the breakfast!! If you can, partake in the gourmet breakfast. It takes a little longer than a continental or bag breakfast that the early birds usually opt for, but the gourmet breakfast is well worth it. The menu is different everyday and has multiple courses. The food was delicious and beautifully served. I woke up every morning wondering what was in store for breakfast. Barb is a also a very kind and warm person and to my surprise she made me feel right at home. I've already told my friends and family about this gem and hope to visit again soon. Thanks Barb!!!
