Summer in Seattle

We came here for a summer concert in the city, great location, close enough to the city to take it vantage of all the things there. Beautiful home and property, meticulously maintained. Everything you would want in a vacation rental was there, in the right place and easy to find. Maybe the best vacation rental I've stayed at in 20 years.

Best VRBO property

Had an amazing experience at the cottage. Steve and Deb were amazing hosts and ensured we had plenty of amenities to keep us entertained and relaxed. The property has phenomenal views and the landscaping was excellent. The price for the value was spot on and I can’t wait to book again next time I’m in Washington.

Couldn't be better...!

This was one of the best VRBO properties I have ever rented; and I have used VRBO exclusively for over 15 years. Location was excellent, cottage is lovely, communication with owners... wonderful! The view and outdoor space couldn't be beat. Beds and furniture are all very comfortable. The home was stocked with everything you could possibly need. Cookware is all in excellent condition. I will definitely stay here again, when visiting family in Tacoma. Highly recommended.

A well equipped comfortable home with amazing views, beautiful sunsets …. The whole house was immaculate. the kitchen was equipped with everything a cook would need. While we brought our own, The owners are very kind in providing extra everything for a nice cup of coffee, tea… and the hospitality of a hotel with nice towels, bathrobes and shampoo dispensers. While i think the stairs to the downstairs bedroom are difficult for older people, my 80 friend proved me wrong and never used the outdoor access to that area. The outdoor area is huge with beautiful gardens and designed/sitting areas to enjoy its beauty and great views. Overall it was a great friends getaway place. Hope to have the opportunity to come back.

We absolutely LOVED the yard! You obviously put a lot of time and effort into the designing and maintaining of each space. It was gorgeous! The inside of the home was thoughtfully and lovingly decorated as well. Thanks for sharing about the history of the house and the original owners. Kudos to the family for all the improvements they’ve done to the home and property over the years. We enjoyed our stay immensely; especially the views through the large picture windows, and sitting outside watching the sun set in the evenings.

Amazing Property

The grounds and views from this place were breathtaking. So beautiful!! We had a small family wedding there and it was absolutely gorgeous. Couldn’t have been any better. The cottage is very cute and comfy. We had 6 adults stay there and it was a perfect size. One of the best Vrbo’s we’ve stayed in. They were equipped with absolutely everything you’d ever need. They even provided chairs for the wedding. Wonderful hosts!!
