Welcome to Alki Beach, Seattle's birthplace, and home of the historic Alki cottage. Built in 1907 and recently updated, this cottage is one of the original West Seattle beach houses. Detailed with memorabilia, this two-story bungalow celebrates Seattle's legendary music scene. Enjoy Puget Sound and Olympic Mountain views from your front porch and throughout the house. Launch paddle boards or kayaks directly across the street. You'll find the extensive walking and bike path along Alki here as well. When you're ready to go sightseeing or take in a game, hop on the water taxi for a scenic ride across Elliott Bay to Seattle's waterfront and downtown! Styled with an amazing array of memorabilia, the living room is a music lover's dream! Choose an album to play from the well-stocked collection. Or settle in on the sleeper sofa and watch a movie on the 58-inch Smart TV. The reading nook also offers a record player and gorgeous water views.
Prepare meals and beach snacks in the well-appointed kitchen, equipped with a full suite of stainless steel appliances. When you're ready to eat, gather around the welcoming table in the dining area. Start your day sipping coffee on the porch with a full view of Puget Sound and the Alki boardwalk. A firepit, ample seating, and gas grill await on the patio. In the yard, you'll find a gas grill and picnic table - perfect for a sunlit al fresco meal. This relaxing retreat is steps from the Alki Beach Volleyball courts as well as numerous eateries and pubs. Spend the day tide-pooling or take in breathtaking sunsets at one of the fire pits along the beach!
The passenger-only water taxi at Seacrest Ferry Dock is less than a mile away. Grab the free shuttle or skate, bike, or walk to it as bikes are allowed on-board.

Cool place, like a rock and roll museum. Great location. Dealt with ants most of the stay and some personal items were still in the shower from the previous tenant.
this house, built in the early 20th century, is in the perfect location to enjoy Alki. Its cozy and has plenty of room for friends or families. The record collection is top notch and lends itself to group listening sessions, a perfect way to spend a rainy day when the seattle weather keeps you off the beach.
Super fun home for beach and music lovers. It’s steps from Alki beach and has tons music and memorabilia to enjoy during our stay.

Great location
This house has an amazing location. It’s very old and rickety, but if you can just embrace that, the location is wonderful. You can see the water, and it’s a short drive to downtown Seattle.

The location is fantastic! Close to all the fun great for beach walks. Excellent record collection and turntables!
Great location and music vibe. Feedback would be ants and no window covering on main level bedroom windows.

Perfect beach vibes
What a hidden gem! We had an amazing time and made some beautiful memories here with our friends for Fourth of July. The vibes were extremely chill and welcoming. Super close to the beach and all that Alki has to offer. We will definitely be back.
Probably my favorite rental ever and for a variety of reasons. The decor and connection to the depth and culture of Seattle and West Seattle specifically, the location across the street from the beach and for my group it was the nostalgia of being back next in the neighborhood we grew up in. We’ll be back!

Perfect for a concert weekend
I stayed here with some friends for a Wu-Tang concert weekend. Great vibe. I used to live in West Seattle so I knew the area well, and enjoyed a very nice dinner at Il Nido. Hard to beat a summer weekend at Alki. The house is old and rickety, but clean and comfortable. Perfect for us.
Our second time staying here! We love the iconic vintage vibes and access that all that West Seattle has to offer.

Great place
Our family thoroughly enjoyed this place. The beds were super comfortable. The amenities were great. We loved listening and admiring the records and posters. We would love to stay again.
The memorabilia and records makes this place unique and an amazing stay. Easy access to Seattle via the water taxi and walking distance to food and beach. Will be back!

Perfect for us
Easy Street Beach House is a quirky retreat on Alki Beach in eclectic West Seattle. It was the ideal gathering point for us, 3 of our adul children, and a dog. Easy Street Beach House oozes with history of rock music in the Pacific Northwest. Be aware that, like the music scene it represents, Easy Street Beach House is somewhat rough around the edges, intesely creative, and beautiful; but it is not a spa. If everyone in your group can go with the flow, it a great place to stay!
Our vacation was spent listening to records, sitting at the beach and visiting Pike place market. If you are a fan of all things vintage, this place is perfect for you!

Cute, but could use more attention from the housekeeping staff.
Great and beautiful location and view, but there were some housekeeping details that were overlooked that detracted from the overall enjoyment of our stay.

Great stay at the Easy Street Beach House!
Absolutely loved the location of this house. Also loved the decor...we are big music fans. Owner was readily available for questions and checked in with us to see if we needed anything. Highly recommend!
