This property was well supplied, comfortable, quiet and exactly what we wanted for our stay in Seattle. Sandra was very responsive when we had a small issue with the washing machine and quickly resolved the situation. The view was beautiful. We will definitely stay here again. Rhonda and Randy

Peaceful and beautiful !!

My husband and I loved our 3 night stay at this property. Sandra was so friendly and gave us great tips on areas to see. The area is peaceful and quiet. The views of Pugent Sound are amazing. We experienced incredible sunsets with beautiful after glows until well after 10:00 p.m. There was a lovely breeze despite the 90 degree weather that weekend. The area is close to all the fun and sites that Seattle has to offer. We highly recommend!

Our stay was outstanding! Sandra and George handled all requests promptly (Not that many requests were needed, everything was supplied.) The location is pleasantly exciting, with the view even better than pictured. We will be staying there again if it's available on our next trip.

Fantastic!

I loved my weeklong stay at this property. It is a well-managed property, and I felt comfortable and safe. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and the knives were actually sharp, which was a real treat given my love for cooking. I would definitely consider staying here again. The property owners were kind and responsive.

Quiet location with view

Quiet location with a great view. Perfect for what my husband and I were wanting. The pathway to the stay is very well lite. We were supplied with many kitchen supplies and towels for use during the stay . The location is within minutes to many restaurants, grocery, and downtown. Great spot for couples to stay.

Beautiful view and convenient location

This property was conveniently located within similar travel times to all the places we planned to visit while in Washington; it is well kept and the hosts were nice and friendly. However, it’s important to mention (as the property description doesn’t include it) that this apartment is right below the owners’ home so you’ll definitely hear them walking around their house (which can wake you up very early in the morning) or see them in the garden and driveway. Overall I think is a good place for a quick vacation.

Perfect space for a solo traveler who wants to be out of the city

Needed a place to stay for a Ballard wedding and wanted to have a quiet space overlooking the Sound. This was perfect. Even though you could hear footsteps overhead the owners were extremely quiet and the condo was perfect. Well stocked, clean, amazing bed and just what I needed in the kitchen. Highly recommend this place for anyone who wants quiet and a view. Very easy to get downtown as well.

A Gem in Ballard

The location, view, and comfortable back yard made our stay memorable. We saw a family of raccoons and many cats in the yard as well as beautiful views of Puget Sound day and night. The weather cooperated so we saw the mountains, stars, and sunsets. The apartment is modern and comfortable. I had a mishap with the bed and the owner was quite gracious about the whole thing. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Excellent and lovely in North Beach

We arrived at a perfect time to enjoy the beautiful view from this place. The backyard felt both open with the view but also private. The inside of our apartment was the nicest VRBO we have ever had. It was wonderfully clean, very comfortable, with full kitchen, nice size bedroom, lots of storage for our things, great shower and bathroom space. It was in a neighborhood that was both interesting and beautiful for walking. The location was convenient to stores,parks, restaurants and an easy drive to downtown. I can not recommend it more highly!

Book now…you will not be disappointed!

The property was perfect for our needs with an incredible water view! It was clean and modern and more than plenty of room for two people with ample closet and dresser space to unpack and stay awhile. You have access to a spacious grassy backyard and spectacular views! It was an easy drive from the airport, ferry terminal, and downtown Seattle yet you feel very far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Sandra and George could not be more hospitable and welcoming. Don’t hesitate to book a stay at this comfortable and cute unit! You will not be disappointed!

A really nice property in North Beach

The “Expansive Puget Sound Views” Homeaway was clean, comfortable, nicely appointed, and quiet, with wonderful views of the water. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to cook and bake. The bathroom was spacious with a nice long counter, and it was great to have a washer and dryer. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the patio relaxing and dining while taking in the great views. And the neighborhood was great to walk around in. To top this all off, Sandra and George were very accommodating, wonderful hosts. They responded quickly to every request and are just plain delightful people. We’ll definitely be back for another stay!

Beautiful view

This is a 1B/1B home. The owners live above but that is not an issue. They respect your privacy and you don't know they are there. I think that's important for people to know from the onset. The home is lovely. The lake view every morning was so beautiful and relaxing. We had visits from 3 sweet cats. They ventured into the backyard but left us alone. Ok, I am an animal person so IF you chose to pet them you could. (In my case only one permitted the pats) The place is well stocked. I like that they encourage recycling and composting! The place is so quiet and relaxing and close to Golden Garden Park. We had a wonderful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Brenner

Host profile image
George is one of the few true Seattlites - born and raised on Queen Anne Hill. Also, born and raised in Washington State, I've called Seattle home since 1988 and couldn't imagine living elsewhere. We are both in real estate and love selling homes throughout our beautiful region.

Why they chose this property

The North Beach neighborhood of Seattle is a quiet gem. Close to parks and the restaurants of Ballard, but far enough away to be nice and quiet. The apartment is the lower part of our home, with separate entrance. Guests love the views, quietness and close proximity to everything our city has to offer.
