Love the view! Watching the tankers go by was so much fun. The place was clean, well kept and perfect for two. It is as advertised. I think things to note is there are 2 flights of stairs and then a few more to get inside. Also it’s a short drive to get to restaurants etc.

Cozy studio with amazing view well located

We enjoyed a 3 night stay and exploring the towns of southern Washington. Our lodging was comfortable and well stocked with great access to the freeway. It would be so much fun to return during summer months and use the outdoor seating areas. Highly recommend this place to stay.

Beautiful place to stay

It’s an amazing place to stay. I would stay here again. Please note it’s a very steep road which is paved up to the top. And there are stairs that lead to the third floor so you want to be comfortable on stairs. But the view and the room are absolutely incredible.

What a beautiful view we had! We enjoyed watching the ships and the trains! It was entertaining in itself! It was the perfect end to our vacation in Washington after visiting family in the Seattle area! One of our favorite places to stay!

Clean & Cozy Retreat

So much better than a hotel. We found the host most responsive, the property beautifully maintained, and all the little details anticipated and provided for. The views of the river below were most interesting with various watercraft passing by both day and night. We will definitely book again the next time we are up in the area.

It was great. There are a lot of outdoor stairs to the bluffs suite so some guests might be challenged especially in inclement weather or carrying heavy luggage l but otherwise it was a beautiful room with a great view.
