    We had a really lovely stay. The garden is so peaceful and the kitchen was the perfect space to sit and visit together. The view was beautiful and the neighborhood was very quiet. It was just what we needed!

    Our stay was absolutely incredible—the photos truly don’t capture how beautiful this place is! My favorite spot was definitely the kitchen, with its gorgeous windows framing the stunning scenery outside. Mornings on the deck with a cup of coffee, surrounded by vibrant trees, plants, and flowers, felt so peaceful and refreshing. With nine of us, we never once felt cramped—there was plenty of room for everyone, and the beds were unbelievably soft and cozy. This home made our trip unforgettable, and we’re so grateful for the experience!

    We had a great stay at this comfortable and accurately listed home. The location was wonderful—close to the water—and we especially enjoyed relaxing on the backyard porch. The kitchen was bright, spacious, and perfect for our needs. We did notice some ants in the upstairs bathroom, but the host was quick to respond and addressed the situation to ensure it’s resolved for future guests. Overall, it was a great place to rest after busy days exploring Mount Rainier. Thank you!

    Cute and spacious house in a great location. Beautiful views and responsive property management. Beds were comfortable, and loved the backyard. Only real recommendation was for better pillows. Plenty of utensils for cooking, and appliances, plenty of plates and cups and what not. Great and quiet neighborhood. Definitely a bit warm in the summer with no AC, but fans were available to us.

    We really enjoyed our stay. Location was excellent. The house and property were fantastic and spacious. Yard and gardens were so enjoyable. Beautiful trees and landscaping. Lots of room for the kids to run freely. Slept 10 very comfortably and had room to spare. It was truly perfect for our needs. A couple blocks from the Sound and beach. Lots of dining options close by. Day trips to Pike's Place and Alki Beach. And staying put, grilling Copper River Salmon and Oysters on the barbie. This house was truly superb!! Very wise choice to stay here. Our family reunion will be etched in our memories forever. If we get to do this again, it will be here.

    This is a nice place to stay, there are a few issues though. We ran out of hot water the morning of our father interment ceremony, on person had a cold shower and another did not take one. The kit hen and the bedroom that had a shower had ants, so sorry to let you know, but there are ants. The other bedroom upstairs with the queen bed had stains on the carpet. The house has lovely garden area, love the old victorian house, nice neighborhood.

    Very nice place and perfect for our family get together. Had everything we needed and even the perfect toys for our little ones that came to visit for a night. Located close by for all our wants and needs, and only a 5 minute drive to my grandson’s house.

    This home has everything you need to relax, kick back, watch a sunset, bbq on the deck, run around in the gorgeous yard, smell the roses and more. Quiet neighborhood, very close to the water, which has a great boardwalk you can go to at sunset or sunrise. We loved our stay and Autumn and Blythe were so accommodating with all our needs. And there are plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for folks to stay overnight comfortably. Highly recommend staying here if you need a get away.
