About this apartment rental
Available April 1st, 2025. Coastal themed, fully furnished and well appointed home with a dedicated parking spot. Spend your days relaxing in the sun, lounging in the shade, exploring the beach, watching eagles, ships, tugs go by while you curl up with a book, or take a stroll on our country lane. Less than 30 minutes from Seattle or Bellevue and 10 minutes from Boeing and thr Paine Field airport in Everett. The Haven has a private entrance in our home. Picnic Point is halfway between Edmonds and Mukilteo. The Picnic Point Park with public beach has tide pools and is 1/2 mile easy walk. When the tide is out the vast beach stretches out in front where sand dollar beds, crabs, urchins and star fish can be found hiding in the sea grass. If you're here in March and April it's common to see humpback whales going by as they feed, breach and swim between Picnic Point and the southern tip of Whidbey Island. We are minutes from Boeing at Paine Field, the largest building in the USA. Numerous Museums and historical airplanes are very close by.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. THERE ARE MANY STAIRS!
Thr Haven is in our home, which is waterfront and was built on a steep lot. Please note, as shown in the last photo, you go down a very long flight of stairs to enter the rental unit and back up those steps when you leave. If stairs are not a problem, you will enjoy unobstructed views and a beautiful setting to rest and relax.
2. THERE ARE NUMEROUS TRAINS, DAILY AND SOMEWHAT LESS AT NIGHT
Waterfront in our area means trains, and our guests will hear (and sometimes feel) trains as they go by. For some, the sound is soothing and relaxing. It's just part of the local charm on the Lane. Earplugs are used by some for sleep, and we provide a white noise machine that’s easy to select your preferred sound and choose a volume that suits your needs. A fan is also available in the room.
3. QUIET, PRIVATE LANE
Our Lane is a quiet, narrow, country Private roadway and many local residents have lived here 40+ years. The nights are extremely quiet, and we ask our guests to honor "quiet volumes" anytime after 9 pm until 7:30 am.

This was a lovely place to bring in the new year. The weather was great for the end of December and there were a couple of great sunsets from the deck. I loved every thing about my stay. The hosts were very gracious! Thank you!

Sara & Don are GREAT hosts. I asked about the heat and next thing I knew I had a heater at my door. The view is amazing. So quiet & peaceful. Loved the trains. All The Haven is missingbis an "E" after the "A" bc its where serenity lives.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If there was a 10 I'd give that as well!!

Clean, comfortable, spacious.
Stairs down to the bottom, then one level up to the unit was challenging (over age 60), but felt more in shape after the week.
For out of town guest and myself it was perfect, between Seattle and San Juan Island.
Went to Underground Seattle tour, Chihuly Glass, Pier 57 Wings Over Washington, and the Ballard Locks.
Walked on Friday Harbor ferry, rented a Chevy Tracker from Susie's Mopeds and zipped around the island.
Tried to see whales, went to Roche Harbor, Amaro Farm, and Krystal Farm.
Spent the night at Discovery Inn which has very spacious, lush grounds with seating all over and a hot tub.
The owners were easy to communicate with.
Thank-you!

Beautiful, clean, and comfortable. Well organized and stocked with everything you would need to cook. The owners are one text message away and responded immediately. I had a little trouble with the code to enter but Sara was quick to remedy it. She is also gracioulsy sending me my wedding rings I left behind. As a solo travelor I felt safe. The property is in a beautiful location with an amazing view of the sound.

Very Comfortable and memorable experience. Working in Everett that week, I stayed 4 nights. A lot of steps to get down to the unit but worth every step. The trains going by were fun to watch, I looked forward to the next one coming by. Really enjoyed watching the fishermen and crabbers in their boats from the deck and the view of the sunset is priceless. Overall, a really special place with great hosts!
Thank you Don and Sara

What a treasure! The photos and description don’t give it justice! I never realized that the location is literally right off the water. The balcony looks over a back yard, train tracks, beach when the tide goes out and the most spectacular views of islands across the Sound. The unit was super roomy and comfy with all the amenities. Easy communication with the owners who were super nice. I will be back and next time with my husband. The stairs were not bad at all, with a nice railing and motion lights at night. The view was worth every step!!! A bald eagle even swooped up right in front of the balcony! Besides the joy of seeing my son that I haven’t seen in so long, what an extra treat to stay in such a nice place.

Our stay at The Haven was relaxing. It is a great place off the beaten path but close enough to go on day adventures.
The view is amazing and changes each day. We spent a lot of time on the deck watching the fisherman and one morning, when the water was calm, we saw dolphins and seals. Sunsets were amazing too! When it got too cold in the evening we could still enjoy the view sitting inside.
The Haven is a quiet getaway - even with the occassional train that passes by.
The hosts of The Haven are great and made sure we had everything we needed. The kitchen was sufficiently stocked - even spices in the cupboard. Thoughtful additions throughout - outdoor blankets, a fan, umbrella, binoculars - to name a few. The descriptions and pictures accurately represent The Haven - no surprises. We would return!

5 out of 5! Hosts were great and very responsive. The scenery was incredible. Very simple check-in and check out process. The stairs were not as bad as I anticipated. Property is ducked off out of the way and provides and very calm and serene experience!

Happy return visitors
We love this property and plan to stay here whenever we visit our Seattle family. The unit is well equipped, in great shape, and in a perfect location. We love sitting on the deck so close to the water, with our morning coffee, and with our evening wine after a day of activities.

The unit is very nicely decorated and comfortable. I enjoyed having a deck to myself. The stairs are no joke. I was winded everytime I had to ascend them. There are 65 and they are steep and narrow. It's something that you really do need to consider if you're not in shape. I found the trains to be charming and didn't interfere with my stay at all.
The views are spectacular!

ok
The place is beautiful with a view of the Sound that's outstanding. It was very clean when I got there, & the accommodations were quite excellent. The shower was especially good.
The stairs are a challenge, especially at the end bringing up the luggage, so you need to be in decent shape if you want to stay here. If you have a coronary deficiency, an aneurysm or any other condition that requires care in exercise, you might want to consider your stay here carefully.
The train tracks are very close, & trains go by pretty frequently, but the house is so well constructed the the noise is dampened considerably. As a result there were times when going to sleep was a bit difficult as occasionally 2 or 3 trains went by at 5 minute intervals, but the trains never woke me. Finally I asked to meet the Christensens my 1st day there, but never got response that allowed for that. I met Don twice, but there was no conversation beyond what was necessary for me to get to the right part of the house & to get into the apartment. As a result I actually felt about as welcome as an uninvited relative.

The property has a wonderful view of the sound. You can witness the daily ebb and flow of the water and mariners. We enjoyed our stay very much. Thanks!

We chose this property because of its proximity to Seattle, waterfront view and high probability of spotting a bald eagle from the balcony. And within an hour of our check in a juvenile bald eagle flew right past us! We also saw two more that would frequent the ship wreck just down the street. We loved the trains passing through and we even saw a whale. The steps are steep and transporting our luggage was a little difficult but it was totally worth it. The owners were very responsive and even let us check in a few hours early. The neighborhood was unique and we just loved everything about this place and would definitely recommend staying again.

The sunset view is gorgeous and we were lucky enough to have sunny and clear sky on our first night. Owners are very responsive, place is clean and quiet. There are stairs up/down and trains passed by during night but this didn't bother us at all. We also spent sometimes on tide pool when the tide is low.

My friend and I just enjoyed a two night stay at this little beach get away. If you don’t mind trains, like me, this place is great! If you have any concerns with stairs, this is probably not the place for you. The view is incredible! Sara Was quick to respond to my questions. We even saw a rare sighting of an Orca pod! So amazing! We will be back! Thank you for sharing your place and incredible view!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at The Haven! Amazing sunsets over Puget Sound and a wonderful view with the mountains on the horizon. It was so gorgeous we didn’t eat out for these 7 nights on our honeymoon but chose to come home and grill and eat on the deck see the view. The train didn’t bother us, and there are a lot of steps but it makes it that much more private. Very clean and comfortable inside with everything you need. Highly recommended!

The stairs going down to the property were scary. I counted 90 stairs in all. Everything else was wonderful. The view was fantastic.

Wanted a nice weekend getaway for a friend who has never been to WA and myself. This “Haven” did not disappoint. We lucked out with a beautiful sunset the first night. This room was exactly what we needed and served it’s purpose. The hosts were attentive to make sure the stay was comfortable and to make sure we had everything we needed. As warned, there are steep steps leading to the place, but they were worth it for the scenery and relaxation that we got.
If I get the chance I’ll come back.

The owners gave a very accurate description of the property and the stairs to get to the room, I would climb them 100x's over for that view. Owners were very quick to respond with questions and suggestions, the room was very cute and quaint. A couple of things to note; parking is extremely limited, there is only room for 1 vehicle, we had two, however the owner was very accommodating for us which was wonderful. The only reason I did not give 5 stars overall is because I was a little disappointed in the cleanliness of the unit. For the charge of the cleaning fee I would expect it to be professionally cleaned, however the kitchen had a sticky floor, the microwave had crumbs in it, the kitchen cupboards were dirty on the inside, the measuring spoons/cups were dirty and there was a greasy plate in the cupboard ( I had to wash the dishes before I used them) the drawers in the bathroom looked as if the items were just removed for our stay and there was hair and built up dust and dander around the toilet. Aside from this it was wonderful.

We had a lovely time at the Haven. The views were great and the place was nice and clean. We would gladly stay there again. The furnace when out right before we were to arrive and the owners went out and got high end electric heaters for us and it kept the unit really warm, we actually had to turn down the heaters at night. Just a heads up, there are alot of stairs and the road to the property is a really narrow single lane dead end, so if you are not confirmable backing up, bring a smaller car. That said the stairs nor the road were deal breakers as we had a wonderful time.
