Comfortable, cozy home in a lovely neighborhood

Heather’s home is lovely. The backyard is serene and the property is immaculate. We have loved staying in this home and we have enjoyed taking long walks through the neighborhood with our dog. We will certainly want to stay here again.

UW Graduation Stay in Laurelhurst

We loved our week at Heather’s house in Laurelhurst. The house was spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was close to the University of Washington for our many graduation events. Heather is wonderful host. She had a celebratory bottle of wine for us on arrival and was extremely kind and accommodating during a sudden health issue. We hope to stay here on our next visit to Seattle.

A wonderful time

This is a great location. The neighborhood is a delight to walk. The house is clean, simple, open, and uncluttered. The backyard/patio space was quiet and lovely. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking. An excellent market (Mediterranean) is a 3-minute drive away. The host was responsive and helpful in helping us work out some unusual details. This was a perfect rental for us.

Seattle house near UW

My husband, our dog and I rented the house for Labor Day weekend to be near the UW hospital where I had a surgery scheduled. It is a quiet neighborhood. Has a backyard for the dog and covered patio space that includes a grill. The bed is comfy and kitchen/bath items are stocked. Walking distance to Burke Gillman trail.

Nice Place

Nice and clean. Had everything we needed. Very comfortable beds. It was unseasonably warm, so some fans would be helpful. (And maybe some window screens to keep bugs out). It should be more clear that access to washer/dryer has to be requested.

There are fans in the closets. The washer and dryer is easily unlocked. Thanks for staying!
