This spot was perfect for me. Lovely and peaceful after busy times visiting friends. Just loved the enclosed gardens. Marcy and her husband were super hospitable. It was easy to get to from SeaTac and easy to get to other destinations in the area. I’d happily return given the chance.

Nice place…however, it is a “keyhole” driveway so it is a slight challenge to find after dark.

Beautiful cottage close to everything

We had a great time staying at this place. It is beautiful, very tastefully decorated and it allows for plenty of privacy. It is situated close to everything, Juanita beach, beautiful downtown Kirkland, shops, restaurants and much more! It is well appointed, one thing we missed was a washer. It would have beem nice to be able to wash our clothes. Other than that it had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again!

Loved our stay.

Beautiful, open cottage on a hidden, one acre property in a wooded neighborhood. Decor is all Nantucket themed. Very quiet and clean with a cozy gas fireplace. Full kitchen with all the amenities. We had a great stay and would definitely stay again if we’re ever back in the area.

Loved this beautifully gardened location. The yard is an absolute gardener’s heaven. At the center is a huge beautiful tree. Little gazebo, little patio all adorned with amazing flowers and greenery. What a great place!

A Quiet Retreat

Lovely spot to stay. Close to wineries and good restaurants. Lovely lakeside only minutes away. Super clean and quiet. Mattress is beyond its best before date but we still slept. Recommended for a couples or solo getaway to the Seattle area.

Very friendly owners, beautiful cottage!

We had a great time. The cottage was warm and inviting. The grounds were beautiful! The owner stayed in touch throughout our stay. Could use a few extra amenities (books, puzzles, games, breakfast foods, snacks, etc) Otherwise it was delightful!

Magical Escape

We came to Kirkland for an anniversary getaway and to catch a concert at Chateau Ste Michelle. We were blown away by how beautiful Norm and Marcy’s place was! The grounds are gorgeous, the place is super, super adorable and has everything you would need. We even did yoga on the front patio:) Norm and Marcy were such gracious and wonderful hosts and we loved our chats with them and hope our paths cross again!

Quiet Out of the Way Haven

The cottage is located in a quiet area. However it is central to most of what Kirkland. It is about a 15 minute drive to the main part of Kirkland. It is only a few minutes drive to Totem Lake and the restaurant area near Juanita Bay Park. Drive 20 minutes north and you are in prime hiking areas in St Edwards State Park, Big Finn Hill and Juanita Bay Park. The cottage is very comfortable and has all one needs for their stay. Have stayed there before and will probably stay there again

Sorry to say but the place could have been cleaner. The owner had a fire in the main house and there was a lot of construction happening that we were not informed of so it was inconvenient for parking.

The property was so darling and landscaping was beautiful. Excellent location. Only thing to improve is a more comfortable bed. Bed is actually inadequate for the quality of the rest of the property. Woke up sore every day. Having said that, I would stay here again anyways because it was so darn cute.

Why they chose this property

This property is spectacular because the guest cottage on our grounds is one of a kind. We designed the interior after we took a trip to Nantucket Island! People that have stayed here say it is uniquely peaceful! Was featured on, "TINY HOUSE NATION!."

Spring thru Fall one acre of immaculate landscaped grounds!!

What makes this property unique

Juanita Beach if 6 blocks away with a beautiful Lake Washington access for paddle boards and kayaks, lots of new climb on toys for kids of all ages, rentals, snack bar (in the summer months) All updated within the last 3 years. SO nice to have nearby and a great place to walk to (large walkway out around the beach area) and if you include that round trip from our house to the beach is 2 1/2 miles! So, you can your walks in!!

The benefits are that it's close to everything, the beach, the mountains, downtown Seattle, Microsoft, Boeing, Google, and if you love islands - the San Juan's are only 2 hrs. away!
Kirkland is like a beach town in the summer with arts festivals, alfresco dining everywhere and a beautiful waterfront to stroll and enjoy the view of downtown Seattle and the Olympic mountains. Come stay a week or stay a lifetime! You'll be glad you came! OH AND REMEMBER - IF YOU RENT A MOVIE ON OUR TV (NETFLIX, PRIME, ETC.) LEAVE US A CHECK OR CASH FOR EACH MOVIE YOU HAD TO PAY FOR - THANKS!!! )
