It was my second stay at Studio Zen in Kirkland , Seattle, and hopefully many more times. It is perfect for 1 or two people as it is small but so filled with a 5 star comfort as Barbara thought of everything. Just lovely.Thank you Barbara! Irene
She has heated floors on this winter night to keep me warm besides the heavy duty bed covers, but also this heated stove fireplace made the room warm & toasty

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Brown

Host profile image
I'm Canadian-born and have lived in Seattle for over 25 years. I love traveling and experiencing diverse cultures, which has shown me our shared core values. I'm a painter, nature enthusiast, designer and real estate consultant. In today's fast-paced world, My aim was to make Studio Zen a relaxing retreat where guests can enjoy nature and a sense of calm during their stay.

Why they chose this property

The Highlands neighborhood is lovely mix of old and new. Many of the original homes from when this area was a fruit orchard still exist amongst the newer builds. We have young families and residents who have lived here most of their lives. We pride ourselves on having a quiet, clean and respectful neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

Our location is conveniently near many amenities and major businesses, yet retains the charm of a peaceful lakeside community featuring parks and other recreational options. My property offers a private setting that allows you to unwind and appreciate the natural surroundings.
