The Tub Hooch
The new tub hooch was
completed on December 18, 2005. It is now available for rent- as a private
treehouse, or as a separate bedroom for a larger group in the main house.
The tub hooch features a
fully functional kitchenette- with wrap around counters, a sink, a cooler, a
stove, and adequate dishes, utensils, pots and pans for anything you can
possibly cook up. The base of the hooch is enclosed with wrap around woven
bamboo. The shower and flush toilet are here. The upper bedroom is accessible
via a bamboo ladder, with wrap around counter, woven bamboo, and a queen size
bed. 12 volt electric lights provide adequate
lighting.
The Tub hooch gets its name from the the
old concrete watering tub at the top of the ridge. Used to provide water
for cattle in years past, it is now tiled and landscaped. A daily dose of solar
hot water provides a nice tub for soaking. A woven bamboo fence provides
privacy.
