We’re committed to sustainability, using environmentally friendly cleaning and bath products to ensure a greener stay.

We look forward to hosting you!

THE SPACE - Step into a serene ocean-inspired decor featuring beaches, boats, and whimsical mermaids in the guest bedroom. Our newly refreshed bathroom includes a soft cloth shower curtain and stylish new fixtures, creating a welcoming and relaxing space.

Unwind on our brand-new electric leather couches, perfect for watching birds flutter around the large maple tree outside or enjoying quality time with loved ones.

Savor the enticing aroma of coffee brewing from our Keurig-style coffee maker in the fully equipped kitchen, while streaming your favorite shows from your phone to our TV or staying connected via high-speed WiFi.

The kitchen is a cook’s dream, complete with a new oven/stove, microwave, dishwasher, garbage disposal, refrigerator/freezer, and all the essential utensils, cookware, and condiments. It seamlessly opens to the dining room and living area, making it easy to entertain or relax.

The dining room is also a versatile space, ideal for remote work with its high-speed internet, ample lighting, nearby outlets, and office supplies.

Our home offers a dedicated master bedroom with a king-sized bed, a second bedroom with a queen, and a third with a sturdy bunk bed. All main beds feature brand-new memory foam mattresses and organic cotton linens. An extra air mattress is available for a seventh guest (stored in the master bedroom closet) and can be set up as needed.

For your convenience, we provide extra towels, linens, and a clothing steamer in the bathroom, along with a fire extinguisher, emergency ladder, and medical kit in the master bedroom closet.

Grandma's visit
We enjoyed our stay and being able to meet the owners and their family. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. We were disappointed to discover the back deck was unusable. We had been looking forward to being outside to enjoy coffee in the morning. As older ladies we also were concerned about the slippery tub. A no skid mat should be available. We appreciated the installation of a gate at the top of the stairway into the house for young families. However, it was not very secure.

Accommodating
We were in town for the funeral of my husband's father. We met here with our adult children and two grandchildren. The owners did everything they could to accommodate us, letting us come a little early to drop off bags before we headed to a family gathering the first day, and offering whatever possible to make our time easier. The house was pleasant, clean and well-equipped. It was a little warm the first night because we had higher temperatures than usual in the Pacific Northwest and the fans were more effective if we could leave all the doors opened--which we couldn't. However that only affected the first night. The thoughtful touches in every room and the condiments, some food, and beverage's in the kitchen made it a place where we could relax and be together. Thanks so much.

Good stay
Great location, quiet neighborhood. Wonderful kitchen! All the supplies we needed. Older home with few electric outlets. Baby gate at the stairs. Gate would be great for small children, it was a bit of a pain for us. Would recommend having it taken down if possible for folks who don't need it. Really nice home, GREAT hosts!

Convenient
This is an older property with need of a few cosmetic repairs. It was spotless clean upon arrival. The host was quick to reply to any questions or needs. It is ideally located, a 4 min drive to shops, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Would definitely rent again.
