TinyHouse Oasis - Hot Tub-Bikes-FirePit-BBQ-Projector-Ax Throwing-Pet Friendly

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful tiny home. Both my wife and I really loved the indoor and outdoor spaces. Very comfy bed up in the loft. The kitchen was well appointed even though we didn't use it. The home was a quick 10 min walk to Barber Park where we attended a wedding. Loved the hot tub. We highly recommend Ivan's tiny home. It was very obvious the time and passion Ivan put into this project. We will stay again."
