Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Marian S So
I grew up in the prairies and the Pacific Northwest but moved away for the sake of my engineering career. However, with the arrival of my second child, I decided to leave behind my engineering job to invest in my family. However, I miss the beauty of the Pacific Northwest along with my parents and sisters that still live there. So I decided to buy this humble little A-frame by the water to visit the Pacific Northwest and host my family and friends...it's not perfect because there are no mountain views, the stovetop is terribly slow to heat up and the yard is a mess but it's a little slice of tranquility to which I can escape with my family. I enjoy hosting people and making people feel welcome because I appreciate those who have made me feel welcome to a new place. An introvert by nature, I had a hard time making friends in new cities, schools and churches but by the grace of God, I met many people who made me feel like I had come home to a new family. While I may not meet most of my guests in person because I do not live in Washington, my hope is that all of them will feel welcome and like they've come home.
Why they chose this property
The lake is quiet and does not allow any motorized vehicles so it's perfect for those wanting to play in the water. I don't have to worry about fighting the tide since this is a smallish lake unlike the time I kayaked with my kids and got scared I wouldn't make it back because I couldn't kayak very well against the tide and with my youngest right in front of my lap. Plus, the community play area has a basketball court, tennis court and a little playground. I can't wait to try pickle ball or badminton in the tennis court.
What makes this property unique
I've never seen such a spacious A-frame in any of the blogs or on Airbnb with three bedrooms that actually have four walls and a door. With a front yard and a backyard, introverts can find space outside to be alone too. Extroverts can gather in the living room, dining area or TV room / loft to hang out. It also has an office in which someone can also sleep if they don't mind being surrounded by windows.
