My experience at the Lake Desire house was amazing. Everything about this place made me feel right at home yet still experience the luxury of being on vacations. The lake views were phenomenal and communication with the host was on point. Would stay here again.

The host made our stay so special with so many added touches. The host was very communicative and available for all of our needs. The house is unique, clean, and you truly feel like you're home the minute you walk through the door. The property's location makes you feel like you are so far from the city but anything you need is just a few minutes down the road.

This house is tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac on a small, peaceful lake with amazing views. There were plenty of kayaks, paddle boards and life jackets for our group. The house was clean and cute, stocked with lots of games and other activities. The owner checked in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. Thai even had snacks and a fridge stocked with beverages when we arrived. We were in town for a family wedding in Issaquah, which was a little further than we thought but only a 20-30 minute drive, depending on day and time.

Great, super comfortable house in a beautiful location

My wife and our two kids and I had an amazing trip, staying at this wonderful rental house on a beautiful lake near Seattle. The house was the perfect combination of clean and comfortable for the whole family. My youngest loved the lowest level room and didn’t want to ever leave. Quiet and cool even though we were having a heat wave.

Great stay after our Alaskan cruise. Our host, Thai has been very accommodating with our requests. The view at the lake house was gorgeous. We sat on the porch enjoying the view and the weather. (We are from Texas and you know how hot it is,) Our family had fun kayaking and fishing. We definitely recommend anyone to stay there.

Home on Lake Desire

Mon, Jun 17 at 8:15 PM Thai's home on Lake Desire was wonderful! The view from both the deck & the dock are fantastic. Thai was extremely thoughtful, accommodating, and quick to respond to texts. We even arrived to a "Congrats UW Grad" cake in the fridge, as Thai knew we were celebrating a graduation. We really appreciated the waffle maker in the mornings, and made great use of the home's paddle boards, kayaks, and fire pits. All around a great stay and great host!

Awesome lake house

We are very happy to stay at this property. Plenty of room for our large family of 8 people. Owner left us fresh cherries and a bottle of wine. The house is stocked with plenty of snacks. We felt very comfortable. The kids were out kayaking / canoeing on the lake almost every day. Highly recommend this house for its lake access and exceptional hospitality from the owners.

An incredible house to stay, relax and enjoy Seattle area!

I went often to Seattle, staying in downtown hotels and this time, coming with husband and kids I wanted a house close to a lake. This one was incredible ! The owners are extremely kind and make you feel really like at home. It is perfect for family, plenty of games for the kids, some boats (with life jackets) to enjoy the lake. I highly recommand ! Thanks again !!

Lakehouse

We had a superb visit with perfect weather at the Lakehouse. Wonderful outdoor spaces to relax on the large porch, play Bags (cornhole), toss the frisbee and kick the soccer ball. 4 Kayaks, 2 Paddle Boards and a canoe allowed everyone to explore, fish and swim in Lake Desire. Wonderfully quiet. (No jet skis or motor boats.) Thai was very helpful and accommodating and very easy to reach.

Quiet, peaceful location

I stayed here with my husband and 2 young children (5 and almost 3). The property is in a nice neighborhood on a quiet cul-de-sac. The yard is fenced in which was great for the kids to run around. The property has a lovely view of the lake. The house has a few different bedrooms that would accommodate various sleeping arrangements. It was clean and well-kept. Thai was a very attentive host and kept in communication with us to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed. Would stay again!

Lake Desire

We recently stayed at the Lake House on Lake Desire. It is a beautiful house with an Amazing view. Our host Thai made our visit extremely special. It was a couple of generations coming together that serve or has served in the military and are in different parts of the country. Thai provided everything that we needed. They even had extras just in case you forgot something. We didn’t have to worry about anything during our trip. I highly recommend staying with Thai again. Sincerely, Bonnie Tharp

Great spot and great hosts

We loved the convenience to Seattle and other area destinations while also being able to lounge and relax in this lovely lake house. The lake was a hit with our teens especially! And, it made sense to us to have such great outdoor space in an area where the outdoors are the draw. Furthermore, our host, Thai, provided snacks and drinks, including wine, and check ins to see if we needed anything. When we booked and had questions about whether air conditioning is needed in July, Thai promised to provide portable AC units and delivered on this! We would definitely return to this house.

Highly Recommended

There are so many things that I loved about our stay! The location was beautiful, quiet and magical. Magical as there were nothing but clouds and a little rain on our drive up. When we got to the home, blue sky and sun around the lake. Our granddaughter experienced her first kayak adventure and played her first game of Candyland! (She his only 2 so ignore the recommendation for 3 and up.) Thai was wonderful. There were lots of surprises in the kitchen and refrigerator for us. We are hooked and will definitely be back.

Exceed our Expectations!

Thai was an awesome host. He was very easy to communicate with and was extremely accommodating with multiple requests to accommodate our family needs. He was very quick in response and always asked if we needed anything else and if we were doing ok. He truly went above and beyond. My family can’t stop saying how much they’ve enjoyed our stay. We surely will be staying again the next time we have another family vacation. The house was on POINT!!! Extremely clean and stocked with amenities. Mahalo Thai!!! ~Sheila and Ohana

Amazing getaway with friends and family!!!

First off, Thai is AMAZING! Very accommodating when we had some last minute change requests and super easy to contact and communicate with throughout our stay! The house itself is beautiful with a ton of space! We actually had 8 adults and 8 children staying here and we’re never worried about the space (we brought an air mattress or two to subsidize the sleeping we needed!). The lake is amazing and provided a ton of fun for both adults and kids alike! The weather was beautiful so we literally spent everyday out on the lake using the paddle boards, kayaks, and canoes. The kids also loved the outdoor cinema created on the deck in the evenings!!! It was an absolute perfect trip!! Thank you Thai!!!!!! We will be back!

🌟🏡 Perfect Family Retreat by the Lake! 🚣‍♀️ We had a great stay at this incredible property in a serene Seattle suburb! As a family of 5 with young kids, we were looking for a family-friendly place for our trip. This home exceeded our expectations! The moment we arrived, we were greeted by a meticulously maintained property. The attention to detail was evident, creating an inviting atmosphere making us feel right at home. The fridge was even stocked with refreshing drinks, a gesture we truly appreciated. The highlight for our kids was the access to kayaks, canoes, & life vests. They had a blast exploring the tranquil lake right from the backyard. Unforgettable memories! The spacious backyard, with a swing set, was a haven for our little ones. They happily played while we relaxed on the patio, soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The location was ideal, providing the best of both worlds. The secluded vibe struck the perfect balance between privacy & convenience, offering a serene escape. Quick access (30 – 45 min) to several city attractions. We had an unforgettable experience, & highly recommend this property. Whether you're planning a family vacation or rejuvenating retreat, this home is perfect. We left with cherished memories & a strong desire to return in the future. The owners were responsive & went above & beyond to ensure our comfort. Thanks Thai for creating such a haven & exceptional hospitality. Our stay was nothing short of perfect; can't wait to visit again!
