Very clean house. Owner is concerned about renter having a great experience. Nice quiet neighborhood and great views of lake.
Beautiful vacation house, well appointed kitchen, excellent view of the lake with lake access. Situated between both Tacoma and Seattle, close to hiking trails and town.
Our second weeklong stay put us under the spell of this special place. John is a great host and the house is very comfortable. The trail to the top of Echo Peak is steep, but on a clear day you have a great view of Mt.Rainier. Looking forward returning next year.
Wonderful hosts and comfortable home. We enjoyed the lake, birds, deck, location and excellent hospitality from John & Patti. Home was well equipped with everything we needed accept groceries. Thank you!
Beautiful property on a lovely lake, situated near shopping and other activities, but with the feeling of being far away from the city. Our hosts were wonderful. Such a great week shared with family.
Wonderful hosts ,beautiful views absolutely recommending to everyone, close enough to travel and sight see Seattle and surrounding area
Serenity at its finest, our host was so Welcoming & Warm, we canโt thank them enough for our beautiful accommodations! Thank you, we canโt wait to get back to Seattle!!!
This stay was wonderful! From the start, the communication with the owners was excellent, and that continued during our stay. If we needed anything, they were there to help. The home is well decorated and matched the pictures in the listing. There are several gathering places in the home, and we were on the deck a lot. Everything was available to cook our own meals, and the house is very organized. The landscaping was beautiful, and the view to the lake is unbeatable. We were able to use the boats on the lake and walked the trail up the mountain with the trailhead a few houses away. This was our first VRBO, and we give it a five-star rating and recommend it to anyone!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this delightful home on the shore of Lake Desire. The deck was fabulous for meals and relaxing, the kitchen was very well equipped, and the home was comfortable. We loved having access to kayaks and a private dock. The owners were very thoughtful and available when needed while ensuring our privacy. They left a lovely bouquet of fresh herbs from their garden on arrival. We hope we can visit again.
Hard to leave to large deck overlooking the lake and forest. Serene and peaceful. The house was good with all the basics and good size. Clean and the hosts who live next door were great and not intrusive. Great trail a few houses down and my husband loved hiking to the summit. Great view of Mr Ranier. Boats also available for use. 2 miles to grocery store in a good sized shopping center. Southcenter mall about 15 minutes. Want to return next year!!
This is a very clean home set in a beautiful location. Very clean and well stocked. Owner was very attentive to needs. Home is located in an area that is easy to get to airport and all things Seattle.
The house was immaculately clean and extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well fitted out, and the beds were wonderful. The view of the lake was lovely. Five stars all the way!
Let's just say the hosts were perfect. They made the stay welcoming and so easy from check in to check out. The home is beautiful with great views. The accommodations were just what we were looking for. The beds are so comfortable! The kitchen was very well stocked with everything you need. I brought items along for just in case, but never had to use anything because it was already there. If your looking for a quiet , tranquil, and inviting home with wonderful hosts look no further because this is it. Close to stores, gas stations, and restraunts. Easy drive to Seattle. Thank you for allowing us the use of your home we couldn't have picked a better vacation home. Veronica and Tony S.
Beautiful place to stay! Very tranquil & beautiful views of the lake. John & Patti were exceptional hosts - great communication before, during, & after our trip. Loved the pictures throughout the house as well. Highly recommend! Thanks John & Patti for the hospitality!
This home overlooking a forested lake was well furnished with comfortable beds and stylish furniture that was inviting. We felt at home with the property quickly. A bonus was the dramatic photography reflecting the ownerโs world travels. The property was lovingly landscaped with pathways through well kept shrubs and flowers reflecting the flavor of the Nortwest. Although the home had a secluded feeling to it, we were only minutes away from the essentials such as groceries and Starbucks! We encountered no problems and the hosts were most gracious. We have no reservations about recommending this home and would choose it again.
My family and I truly enjoyed our stay at the lake house. The house was beautiful and comfortable. John and Patti were gracious and friendly hosts. We are looking forward to our next stay at the lake house.
Nice place !
Fantastic property! Was in town for a work trip and was super pleased with everything. Would highly recommend for a relaxing quiet place to stay for vacation. Was also nice to have a peaceful home away from home at the end of a long work day!
