Cute house in a quiet residential neighbourhood with easy parking in the driveway. Enjoyed the generous sized rooms and easy access to the roadways to downtown. Also some local informal dining spots nearby that were quite good. And, lady but not least, first rate service from the owners.
The Cloud Cottage is a beautiful private home nestled in a great and safe location. It was perfect for our family of 5. The house was exceptionally clean and Eric the owner was a wonderful communicator. I highly recommend staying here!
Our family of four was looking for a place to stay close to friends—but also with easy access to UW and downtown. We loved this home. It was cozy and convenient, and clearly a lot of care had been put into making it comfortable.
My husband and I enjoyed our second stay in this wonderful location near our Seattle based family. Quiet, peaceful, walkable area with friendly neighbors. All conveniences one would need are located within minutes.We will be back!
