Beautiful and comfortable in a great location

We stayed for 7 nights. I am a light sleeper but the bedroom was so comfortable I slept all night every night. In the morning we enjoyed the beautiful lake and location. The last couple of days, Mount Rainier made its first appearances which we could also enjoy. When we return I will definitely try to book it again.

Beautiful property with incredible views! Spacious, clean, peaceful, and well appointed! Super comfortable bed and plenty of closet space. If a guest is inclined towards cooking, this lovely unit is not very conducive to that. There are no burners, and there is only a small kitchen sink. There is a good oven and microwave. Other than that, we would definitely return!

If you play in the city by day you can relax in evening with great view of Lake Washington. Sea planes taking off and landing, boats of every kind. Quite neighborhood. The 1 line is 3 easy miles. Free parking garage. Fabulous hostess!

Very nice walk-out basement apartment with great views of the lake. Beautiful sunrises, and a nice garden. The only problem we had was a coffee maker that died, but the hosts took care of it the same day.

Excellent!

I came to Seattle with my Dad for medical reasons. This place was almost perfect. Loved the view! But listed to be ADA. It was all one level which was great. No stairs at all. However, all ADA places I have ever stayed in had handrails in the bathroom and shower. This has none. Therefore, getting my father in and out of the shower or on and off the toilet was Quite the challenge. We did buy a shower chair and left it for the owners but I would recommend grab rails and a shower head that is a Wand instead of just a wall mount. Don’t get me wrong… the place is beautiful and super clean and the host was very accommodating. I would definitely stay there again if I wasn’t with my father who’s in a wheelchair. Also it’s very spacious. Thank you

The view of Lake Washington is amazing, and the walking trail makes it even more special. This was our second stay in this beautiful lake home, and everything was as good as we remembered. Thank you to our hosts for providing a lovely place to spend our time in the Seattle area.

Lovely and large space with spectacular views and hospitable, immediately responsive, hosts. The bed in the larger bedroom was super comfortable! We were unfamiliar with the device used to secure the garage door opener, so better instructions on how that works would have saved us a wee bit of frustration at check in. While the home was luxurious, a few extra touches would have truly elevated our experience. For example, a nicer shower head with a personal shower feature and / or cushions on the patio chairs (only 2 chairs had cushions and both cushions were in poor repair).

September Getaway

Location of property is beautiful Was surprised to find out property is located in the basement of a private residence. It is more like a mother-in-law suite than a standalone property which I thought I was Renting It was a little concerning for three women traveling alone to find out people had access To the unit below. In regards to Unit itself quite comfortable was surprised to find out no stove in the kitchen and stocked with very few things for meal prep.

Beautiful, and

Every single room of this property demonstrated an attention to detail. Two beautiful and welcoming bedrooms, a beautiful bath with crisp clean towels, a very comfortable sectional couch for conversation and seating for visitors. The view was fantastic! We were greeted by the host (also homeowner, staying upstairs) and she led us through the property with the reassurance we could call her any time if there are questions or needs. The kitchen was listed as a half kitchen with an oven, microwave, coffee pots, slow cooker . . . When commenting in a private message with the host, she indicated there was full disclosure in the VRBO listing. The truth that was not disclosed was although there were plenty of wine glasses and coffee mugs, the plates and silverware were matched to how many were visiting (4). No mixing bowls or mixing spoons, 2 fry pans without a burner to cook with . . .this half kitchen is designed for visitors who plan to go to restaurants and reheat left overs. For many, this would be ok. We didn't think it would be important to ask for specific kitchen items. As the VRBO said following our visit, be very careful to read the fine print. For as much as we paid for this VRBO, the kitchen was disappointing.

This is a fantastic place...just across from Lake Washington with a bike/walk path close to the lake. In a house shared by the owners, with a self-sufficient downstairs with a private entry. Just really nice.
