We had a wonderful time meeting up with our family!!
We had siblings visiting, and this was the perfect rental for the reunion. What a wonderful find. Not only was it close to the darling town of Edmonds, but we were able to use the indoors and outdoors to the fullest. The game tables engaged every age. We put up a volleyball net and there was room for bocci ball white badminton was going in the yard. Also, the bonfire pit was enjoyed for hours. We made some wonderful memories in this very special home.
We absolutely loved the property. Lots of fun things to keep the family busy. Our host was wonderful and quick to answer any questions we had.
Such a cute house and the best beds in town!
Property was perfect for what we needed! Owner was very accommodating and helpful, we had no issue during our stay, we will definitely be back! We had so much fun this past weekend that we decided to do it quarterly! Thank you for everything!
My family and I enjoyed the accommodation and the location was great!
Very comfortable home, great beds! Well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you!
The road noise was to be expected and it really wasn’t that bad. The owner has that noted on the house details. The location made up for any noise we heard during the main travel hours. We used Edmonds as home base for travels to the San Juan islands, Mt Rainer, Seattle and some wineries. Chateau St Michele winery was one I highly recommend. We were close to the town of Edmonds which is a wonderful waterfront village. The walking trails near the house were such a treat one morning. Washington is a beautiful state to explore. Highly recommend the house while you explore it.
This place isn’t perfect but it was great for the price and the location to Edmonds. It is on a busy street but besides backing out, which is doable and warning the little ones, it wasn’t any big deal. The kitchen was well stocked and the bathrooms were clean. Beds were comfortable and had a great TV area downstairs. The foos ball table and the hockey table were in ok shape, kept the kids busy. The deck was a little creeky and had some splitters. The walk through the trail was fun and the kids loved it! The bedrooms configuration were a bit weird. It worked because my daughter’s family stayed in the master that has a room attached that her two boys stayed in. One room downstairs doesn’t have any windows. Overall we had a great time. My family was in town for my son’s wedding so we weren’t there a lot. Edmonds has a lot to offer and it was a short drive to where we needed to go. The host was very responsive. It was a nice stay.
Overall the stay was good. Scott was amazing! The house is being sold so guessing some of the renovations needed are not going to happen. Overall it was a good house, fair price and we have NO complaints.
The place was great for a large group, there were 7 of us. It was roomy and clean with a large backyard with patio and BBQ which we used.
Nice little house updated and clean. We appreciated all of the fans that were provided in the house as we were there during a heatwave. The owner responded in a timely manner when we messaged him. The driveway was a little tricky as it has a rather sharp slope from the sidewalk. Our rental van, which sits low, actually bottomed out and got stuck the first time we pulled into the driveway. We were able to get the van onto the driveway by coming in on an angle but something to be aware of. The firewood bin was empty, so we bought our own wood. When we mentioned that to the owner, he was very accommodating and refunded us some money to cover our purchase.
Here are the pros and cons about this property, in our opinion. Pros - The house can sleep a lot of people. The manager (might be the owner) Scott is available, responsive and easy to communicate with. They have an outside fire pit that is nice to sit around. The house is good if your expectations are for an equivalent of a 3 star property. For us… we had higher expectations due to the amazing reviews the property had and the description so we were a bit disappointed. Cons - The property is located on a very busy street and you hear the constant noise from cars - day and night. They obviously know it is an issue as they stock their bathrooms with ear plugs for the guests. If there is a heat wave, which there was while we were there, the house has no air conditioning and it was extremely hot and stuffy and hard to cool down the house even in the evening. It is however, unusual for it to be so hot in this area. The house is currently for sale so if you make a reservation and the house sells, would your reservation be cancelled? The house is in somewhat of disrepair. When opening the blinds the entire blinds fell down so we couldn’t use them during the trip. When opening an armoire, the door came off the track at the top and fell off… and really could have hurt someone. The house is tired looking, cheaply done and decorated. They also don’t explain that one bedroom has zero windows and another bedroom can only be accessed by going through another bedroom and the bedroom with the twin bed is also tiny. Other people seemed to have loved this property but for us… not so much.
I highly recommend staying here! There were adequate spaces for us to hang out without feeling cramped. The large outdoor space was a huge plus.
Our son was getting married and this house was the perfect location for us. We worked hard for several days to get their home ready for a wedding so it was great to come to such a comfortable home. We had just the right amount of room! There was one sissies that once I contacted the owner their response was immediate and it was taken care of. The home was clean and comfy with plenty of hangout space. We will stay again!
Driveway was a real challenge- I have a Prius and scraped my underside every time coming & going.
