Sandra was most helpful during our visit. Her instructions were perfect and she made excellent suggestions for restaurants and walks. The house was super comfortable and the view is breathtaking. If you are thinking of staying here, you should!

My husband and I loved our 3 night stay at this property. Sandra was so friendly and gave us great tips on areas to see. The area is peaceful and quiet. The views of Pugent Sound are amazing. We experienced incredible sunsets with beautiful after glows until well after 10:00 p.m. There was a lovely breeze despite the 90 degree weather that weekend. The area is close to all the fun and sites that Seattle has to offer. We highly recommend!

Great unit to relax and, enjoy the view of Puget Sound. Access to unit requires negotiating steep stairs that may present a challenge to the elderly

This property was well supplied, comfortable, quiet and exactly what we wanted for our stay in Seattle. Sandra was very responsive when we had a small issue with the washing machine and quickly resolved the situation. The view was beautiful. We will definitely stay here again.

Where to start? This was our first trip to Seattle and we were torn between staying in the city and staying someplace that gave an amazing view of the sound. This location was the best of both! We were ~7 miles from the city center, a super easy drive, and the views, oh the views.
We had everything we needed and Sandra was amazing with recommendations on places to go. We did not leverage public transportation but easily could have.
Absolutely wonderful location.
PS - keep an eye out for bald eagles flying over and an ear out for seals barking in the bay 💖

I loved my weeklong stay at this property. It is a well-managed property, and I felt comfortable and safe. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and the knives were actually sharp, which was a real treat given my love for cooking.
I would definitely consider staying here again. The property owners were kind and responsive.

This property was conveniently located within similar travel times to all the places we planned to visit while in Washington; it is well kept and the hosts were nice and friendly. However, it’s important to mention (as the property description doesn’t include it) that this apartment is right below the owners’ home so you’ll definitely hear them walking around their house (which can wake you up very early in the morning) or see them in the garden and driveway. Overall I think is a good place for a quick vacation.

The property was perfect for our needs with an incredible water view! It was clean and modern and more than plenty of room for two people with ample closet and dresser space to unpack and stay awhile. You have access to a spacious grassy backyard and spectacular views! It was an easy drive from the airport, ferry terminal, and downtown Seattle yet you feel very far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Sandra and George could not be more hospitable and welcoming. Don’t hesitate to book a stay at this comfortable and cute unit! You will not be disappointed!

We had a wonderful stay. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed! Lovely patio with an amazing view. Great location, we could bike from the apartment easily through Golden Gardens to Ballard and cross the locks to Magnolia and Downtown Seattle. Sandra and George were lovely hosts! Will definitely stay again our next trip to Seattle!

We arrived at a perfect time to enjoy the beautiful view from this place. The backyard felt both open with the view but also private. The inside of our apartment was the nicest VRBO we have ever had. It was wonderfully clean, very comfortable, with full kitchen, nice size bedroom, lots of storage for our things, great shower and bathroom space. It was in a neighborhood that was both interesting and beautiful for walking. The location was convenient to stores,parks, restaurants and an easy drive to downtown. I can not recommend it more highly!

Very nicely furnished. Fully equipped. Beautiful view of Puget Sound from the backyard. Located within easy drive to waterfront, downtown, city parks, restaurants, and stores. We would happily stay here next time we’re in Seattle.

This is a 1B/1B home. The owners live above but that is not an issue. They respect your privacy and you don't know they are there. I think that's important for people to know from the onset.
The home is lovely. The lake view every morning was so beautiful and relaxing. We had visits from 3 sweet cats. They ventured into the backyard but left us alone. Ok, I am an animal person so IF you chose to pet them you could. (In my case only one permitted the pats)
The place is well stocked. I like that they encourage recycling and composting!
The place is so quiet and relaxing and close to Golden Garden Park. We had a wonderful stay.

This was just the place we needed with a view that can't be beat! It is quiet, just the right size, with bald eagles flying by and a sunset to end a tranquil evening. And great coffee and food right down the street. Hosts were very accessible, kind, flexible and accommodating.

The location, view, and comfortable back yard made our stay memorable.
We saw a family of raccoons and many cats in the yard as well as beautiful views of Puget Sound day and night.
The weather cooperated so we saw the mountains, stars, and sunsets.
The apartment is modern and comfortable. I had a mishap with the bed and the owner was quite gracious about the whole thing.
Thanks for a lovely stay!

This place is everything you see in the pictures and more. Sitting outside is so quiet and peaceful. The inside is new and clean and is one of the only places that truly supplies everything. Dealing with Sandra and George was a pleasure. My husband and I just loved staying here.

It was perfectly located near family for our extended visit. Just right for 2 people. Decent coffee shop within walking distance. Cooking facilities were adequate and a short drive to ballard shops, bakeries, and markets. Owner lives on site and was very helpful and informative.

The “Expansive Puget Sound Views” Homeaway was clean, comfortable, nicely appointed, and quiet, with wonderful views of the water. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to cook and bake. The bathroom was spacious with a nice long counter, and it was great to have a washer and dryer.We especially enjoyed sitting out on the patio relaxing and dining while taking in the great views. And the neighborhood was great to walk around in.To top this all off, Sandra and George were very accommodating, wonderful hosts. They responded quickly to every request and are just plain delightful people. We’ll definitely be back for another stay!

Needed a place to stay for a Ballard wedding and wanted to have a quiet space overlooking the Sound. This was perfect. Even though you could hear footsteps overhead the owners were extremely quiet and the condo was perfect. Well stocked, clean, amazing bed and just what I needed in the kitchen. Highly recommend this place for anyone who wants quiet and a view. Very easy to get downtown as well.
