In the bedroom, the queen size Murphy Bed can be opened at nighttime for sleeping and put away during the day to make room for entertaining. Kitchen has seating for 4, and all appliances included. The highlight of the Kottage can be seen when you exit the back door and enter the oasis. In the oasis, you will feel like you are the only people on earth! Landscaped with plants, a gazebo, water fountain, and plenty of seating, you may find yourself gravitating toward this area for your morning coffee or a nightcap. Propane grill and gas firepit is available for guest usage. On rainy days and cold nights you can stay occupied with board games and complimentary WiFi. The Kottage is located just a 2 minute car ride from the lively Fauntleroy Junction, where you'll find bars and restaurants and the renowned Lincoln Park. Whether you are looking for a quiet secluded location, or seek entertainment, the Kottage on Kenyon is your go-to get away location!

This is a very cute and pretty private cottage in a great location. We loved the back patio! The bed was totally comfortable and everything was clean. The shower is on the small side but that was not an issue for us. Would 10/10 stay here again.

Quiet oasis
As promised, the backyard space with fire pit and solace was perfect after a hard day of being a tourist. The location was perfect for us, off the beaten path and so near to all the joy of Alki beach area. We took the water taxi twice, just for fun!

Not a place for us
We were disappointed in the kottage. We are elders so we wrote in advance to ask about steps and were told there was just one. Problem was that it was 7 inches high and all the way across the middle of the kottage. So, for accessing the kitchen and/or bathroom it was very difficult with no railing. The kottage did not have a regular bed, just a Murphy bed, and two couches that could made into beds, but the kottage is so small all this furniture makes it very tight for walking around. The miscellaneous throw rugs can be picked up, but for elders, they were real dangers for tripping, especially the edges of the ragged ones in the kitchen and the ones with no backing on them in the bathroom. Another thing for us was the tiny bathroom thst contains a large water heater, making it difficult for maneuvering and there’s no room for toiletries, so we had to use the kitchen sink. The kitchen had just a microwave and refrigerstor, as far as we could see. We stayed one night rather than the five nights we had reserved. The people listing the kottage refunded our four other days but we have to get the fees and taxes from VRBO.

Perfect West Seattle location
What a great little hideaway! The location was perfect- 5 minutes from my daughter’s place and central to all West Seattle has to offer. Private with outdoor space that we used. The only thing that would make it better would be cotton sheets for the bedding. Would definitely stay again

West Seattle bungalow
Great location about 2.5 hr. From mt Rainer, Leavenworth and Anacortes. Description pass and bridge is a must see Locally it has great eateries and Bars right down the road as well Alki beach The bungalow had everything I needed accept for a fan but I didn't reach out to the owner to ask. They have lots of board games for freinds and family to enjoy It was very clean and comfortable would make a great retreat for a young family of four or romantic get away for two. It' is smallish and the bathroom is adequate but only enough room for a shower a little tight for a six foot person Overall I would recommend this charming bungalow to anyone looking to explore Seattle and its surrounding areas. Had the time of my life

As advertised. Responsive owner who was willing to assist. Bed was comfortable. Not many options on the TV. Kitchen has everything I needed however I didn’t cook there. 20-25 minutes from downtown Seattle. Good food locally (Westy, The Locol, and Grillbird were great).

Cozy and Pleasant
West Seattle is a great place to visit and begin explorations from. This cottage was just what my wife and I needed. It was a great place to hang out with our Seattle daughter and launch from and return to. With their attention to detail and check-in preps we never needed to contact the owners. The neighborhood was great and parking was a cinch. HIGHLY recommended.

West Seattle Cottage - Perfect Location
This West Seattle cottage is the perfect place to stay for accessing Alki Beach, ballgames, museums, restaurants and other destinations in town. It worked fine for one adult and two grandsons. The neighborhood is lovely, the hosts are responsive, and the cottage is very sweet!

What a charming property! The back yard space is a real bonus and the method of checking in was seamless. The hosts provide more than enough linens, spaces to sleep, and enough commodities to relax and take it easy. Would stay again!
