About this house rental
WELCOME!!
Welcome to our cozy and folksy Creekside Retreat Farmhouse, the tranquil countryside home you've been looking for, smartly located near hot-air balloon adventures, wineries, wonderful restaurants, bike trails, parks, and more! Perfect for reconnecting with old friends, enjoying intimate weekends with your loved ones, getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, or working remotely in a peaceful setting without having to go very far. WE LOVE IT HERE and want to share the enchanting experience with others who would appreciate it as much as we do!
A WORK OF ART? Some people think so. Reminiscent of a Warren Kimble farmhouse painting, the storybook-style home, perched on a private little hilltop, overlooks the 1.3 private acres of expansive lawns, wilderness areas, meandering creek, and sport court, surrounded by a friendly neighborhood of quiet families and farm animals.
KITCHEN: Kitchen amenities include newer appliances, cookware, serving dishes, and place settings. Views include the side and back yards, wetlands, and sport court. The dining table seats six, and the kitchen island seats two. Just off the kitchen, the covered wrap-around veranda is great for socializing, eating, relaxing, and taking in the views - even when it's raining.
LIVING ROOM: The living room provides intimate and comfortable seating for six. Great for relaxing and socializing, with tree views from nearly every angle. From the living room, walk out the French doors to the side deck for more socializing, summer grilling, eating, relaxing, or simply viewing Trout Creek below.
UPSTAIRS: The hardwood staircase leading to the bedrooms has an upper landing that overlooks the creek below. The master bedroom features a queen-size bed, tree and yard views, and a small office area with French doors that open to an adorable Juliette balcony! The full master bath includes a bidet, relaxing oversized jetted bathtub, and expansive territorial views. Of the two other bedrooms upstairs, one features a queen-size bed, desk, and views of the front yard, while the other features a twin-size bed, desk, and views of the front yard and territorial views of the creek.
LOWER FLOOR: The multi-purpose room downstairs can be used as an exercise room, rec room, game room, theater room, or sleeping room (sleeping sofa). Although this room is closed for renovation through April 2021, the board and card games are still available in the living room. The lower level is also where you will find a variety of yard games, sport court equipment, and a laundry area.
HVAC + VIRUS FILTRATION: The living room and sleeping rooms are equipped with high-tech HVAC system components for heating and air conditioning, have independent temperature controls, and use high-tech air filtration that reduces airborne allergens, bacteria, and viruses. Variable speed ceiling fans can provide additional air movement in the living room, the three bedrooms upstairs, and above the stairway.
SECURITY: Security systems include an electronically controlled driveway gate and some barbed wire perimeter fencing. Other security systems, including exterior security cameras, may or may not be in use. If you have additional concerns about any of the security systems, please send us an inquiry.
HOT TUB: The premises do not have a conventional hot tub. Unfortunately, VRBO adds "Hot Tub" to our list of amenities because we have a 1-2 person jetted tub in the master bedroom. That said, we are considering adding a conventional hot tub in the future. If us not having a hot tub at this time is the ONLY reason you are not booking with us at this time, please send us an "Inquiry", via the Contact Host link, to let us know.
NO SMOKING: No smoking is allowed on the premises. This includes the use of tobacco, marijuana, vaping, e-cigarettes, or incense burning.
PETS: No pets allowed on the premises, no exceptions.
NO ACCESS: The garage, storage shed, and the area beneath the veranda are private, so not for guest access.

What a great place. Welcomed by host who shared about property. Accommodations were wonderful. Kitchen was fully stocked with all things needed. Outdoor deck was a great place to relax. Our favorite was the sport court. We totally took advantage and played pickle ball. We would definitely stay again, wish we could have made our stay longer.

We had a wonderful experience with this property and the owners. They were so attentive and helpful and the property was beautiful and became a real haven for us during our weeks in the area. Beautiful, many cool mornings with coffee in the comfortable furniture on the wrap-around porch. And a nightly tradition of pickleball on the property's court in the cool Pacific Northwest air. Could NOT have been happier with our experience.

This is a gated home in a nice area of 1 to 5 acre ranchettes. Very secure and quiet. There is a stream and sport court on the wooded lot . The owner is still working on a few projects but they didn’t impact our enjoyment of the property.

Wonderful Bothell area property! It’s a gorgeous home and a beautifully landscaped property in the Bothell area. It was an excellent location for us to visit family in Lynnwood! What’s the sets this place apart for me beyond just being an outstanding home and property, was the attention to detail by the owner! Great communication and a lot of details that are very nicely attended to! I would love to stay there again!

This was a beautiful house and was very well appointed; not lacking anything !!!
The house was immaculate and had all the cabinets filled with food, snacks and NP welcome basket; so nice and very thoughtful ! Loved the serenity of the house; waking up in a cozy bedroom along with a neigboring rooster crow each morning. Sweet plum trees on the property for an afternoon delight with a cold beverage overlooking woodlands, pickleball and basketball court.
We were also 5 mins. from our daughters wedding venue (Maroni Meadows) and, therefore, the running back and forth was easy.
We enjoyed our stay immensely and recommend the host family and property to othere guests with the greatest enthusiasms.

I have never given all 5’s prior to this property. The owner’s attention to detail is impressive and made for a great wedding weekend with family. The house and property is ideal to entertain or just relax and escape. We will look for a reason to go back.

This property is amazing. Beautiful house with lots of character. Stocked with more than you'll ever need. Jim was very gracious and allowed us to bring our granddaughter. She had a wonderful time playing in the creek and the huge yard. Jim went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. This will now be our "go to" rental for our Seattle trips.

The owner was very accommodating, even stocking the kitchen with goodies. Spacious and comfortable for outside and inside gatherings. The sportcourt was a great addition for fun with grandkids. This is the perfect spot if you are seeking a rural feel but in close proximity to everything Seattle offers.

This was a wonderful home base to explore Seattle and surroundings. The host graciously stocked the fridge with food which was very welcoming and helpful. Because the kitchen was so well stocked, we ended up opting for home cooked meals. The kids enjoyed the sport court and mornings on the porch were wonderful! The owner was helpful and obviously took pride in offering us more than just his home, but a relaxing retreat. Will definitely return!

We needed a place to stay for a week while we were having work done on our home and we were lucky enough to find Jim's place. Jim was very responsive from the beginning and very helpful in answering questions before we arrived. The property is very big with lots of space to explore and the home itself is fully stocked with everything that you will need for your stay (linen, cleaning supplies, coffee, etc). There were 3 of us needing to be online at the same time for work and school and we had no problems with the wifi at all and had enough work spaces to spread out across the different bedrooms. We had an issue with the fire alarm the first night (I couldn't reach the fire alarm to turn it off) and Jim was quick to address the situation the following day.
Thank you so much for the wonderful stay and we will definitely be back!

We can’t say enough about our experience with Jim and this stunning property. The house was immaculate, the grounds are beautiful and serene, and we had SO much fun playing pickleball with the family! We fell asleep to a chorus of frogs and woke up to the calls of neighboring roosters. I kept forgetting that we were so close to the city and traffic, because Creekside Retreat is just that… a retreat for the senses. We absolutely loved it and plan to return. HIGHLY recommend!

Amazing house and property
The house was comfortable, clean and well appointed in the kitchen. The privacy of the property is serene and relaxing. The only disappointment was the lack of hot tub. We used the filter on VRBO to look at houses with "hot tub" and selected this house. Turns out its a jetted tub in the master bathroom. It's an amazing, well kept house just want to call it out for the other people that overlook this detail.

Cute house!
Well appointed and immaculate house in a serene setting with a creek. The kitchen is well stocked and beds are very comfortable. The pickle ball court was a fun addition. House includes paddles, balls, basketballs, and board games. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
