I had a playhouse custom built for my kids. I shot some video of the finished product:

I posted this over six months ago and not a single comment? Was the playhouse design that bad?

Very nice. I'm hoping to be able to get something like that for my grandkids. The only thing I didn't particularly like is that it faces away from your house. I would be more comfortable having the door face the house so I would be able to see the comings and goings. With the electric supply coming in the back, maybe that was a restriction on where to place the house? Otherwise, nice little getaway for the kids.

Oh brother!
Every thread doesn't require a response to be entertaining, inspirational, or thought provoking that requires a written response. Besides, its been "read" over 150 times; and I believe it would be safe to assume that more than half of those actually watched your video.


No; I haven't watched it. And no, I have no desire to watch it because my kids are well past that stage of their life.

It was squeezed into that location. Facing it other ways would have required moving too many obstacles. Building it on the other side of the house would have covered our septic system's drain field. We can still see all the comings and goings as we have video surveillance all around our home. Anyone coming on the property is recorded.

So why did you even bother to respond then? I was looking for opinions on the structure and design, not criticism on my post.

Sorry for the long delay in replies everyone. I don't get on here very much and then usually only because a friend of mine on here bugs me to log in.
