    The property was clean, inviting and even decorated for the season! The kitchen had everything we needed, and there were plenty of pillows and towels in each bedroom. The trail in the backyard was beautiful and exceeded our expectations!

    We had an extended stay here for a work trip. Kathy was very helpful and responsive. The place has all the amenities you need. We also enjoyed the trail and creek behind the house for a quick hike after long work days. Overall we highly recommend this place

    This property had an extremely well stocked kitchen. The firepit area was very appealing. Great place to stay. Very quiet neighborhood, but close to necessities.

    Nice place away from the city but still only 5 minutes away from Safeway. Loved the location and interior. The creek was nice to venture out to. Loved having kid friendly dishes/cups. One minor complaint would be the upstairs nose is very noticeable especially in the early mornings. I'm sure it was not intentional but probably just the way the home was built.

    We were in Seattle for a hockey tournament. We stayed with our family and one dog - what a great property! A perfect set up with the dog, we bbq’d, sat in the backyard with the firepit, walked along the creek and slept amazingly! Thanks so much for the great experience!

    A great house in a very nice neighborhood. Very clean and extremely well stocked—they thought of everything we could possibly need! Lots of fluffy towels and beds were very comfortable. Host was very helpful and quick to respond. We will definitely stay again.
