About this house rental

No animal please due to severe allergies. Come to experience a luxurious stay on a beautiful lakefront home - lower floor - with own beach. The lake is fresh, clear, and clean with lots of fish for fishing activity on your own private beach. Shared dock, two paddle boats and 1 kayak with life vests for your lake-touring pleasure are provided free of charge. Swimming is also one of the favorite activities while staying at the house. The house is within walking distant to a beautiful, green, and well maintained park with swimming area and large playground for the children.
You will find one queen-size-bed bedroom, a second bedroom with 2 adult-size twin beds. Living room with 2 configurable full-size-bed couch. Full kitchen with large size and modern fridge with double door refrigerator and spacious freezer, stove, oven, pots, pants, utensil, plates, cups and glass. Living room, kitchen, dining room, and bed room all have lake view. Titled bathroom with shower (75" high) is provided with towels and standard shampoo, conditioner, and soap. Washer and dryer are available for use for Guests stay longer than 1 week. Walk out your living room to a large deck to enjoy the fresh breeze and the view of the lake. There is a fire pit on private beach for a bonfire evening with friends, family, or business associates - given there is no fire ban. Events are acceptable with additional minimal surcharges.
For leisure travelers, we are in the heart of the city with endless activities/attractions in or nearby cities; i.e. golf, skiing, ice skating, water activities, mountain activities, city activities, theme parks, etc... Or you could just sit in the deck reading books, and enjoy the green beautiful view and the fresh breeze that the lake offers.
For business travelers, we are very close to big corporations such as Wyerhauser, Boeing, Alaska Air, etc .. Come and stay as a warm and cozy home away from home while attending businesses.
We are just 15 minutes south from Sea-Tac airport, and just 20 minutes from downtown Seattle or downtown Tacoma - with bus stop is only a house away. Close to numerous attractions, and yet secluded to just relax and enjoy the view and activities on the awesome lake for a few days - especially with the magnificent sunset.

The house was very clean and the lake was beautiful however our stay did not exactly meet our expectations. The house itself is awkward and had a very strong smell of cleaning product or air freshener. Also it’s in the flight path of Seatac airport so there was a lot of noise from planes during the day. We found the communication to be a bit quirky there were quite a few rules and signs posted throughout the place (nothing unreasonable) which took away from the experience.

Although the lake views was breathtaking, the home interior space was much smaller then we expected. This is a lower level rental and the ceiling was very thin as we could hear the person’s heavy footsteps walking around all day & night from the upstairs unit. It was annoying and very difficult to sleep at night. Due to this, we decided to spend our days/nights out of the rental which defeated the purpose of us choosing this rental. The washer/dryer is shared, the shower is extremely small, the toilet was strange/crooked, the refrigerator was in the living room, everything inside the home was outdated and the walk down to the rental was very uneven/unleveled concrete (steps) which made it difficult to bring luggage down/up from the car. I recently had surgery and it was very challenging for me to walk up/down. Risk/fall factor. Things were very outdated in the home and this property is definitely a fixer upper. The outdoor deck seems very poorly made and had broken structural pieces. The owner seemed nice and let us check in early, but she had so many unnecessary rules. I felt overwhelmed receiving her lengthy messages prior to checking in. Lastly, I did not appreciate someone shutting off the dryer cycle while my clothes were being dried. Im not sure if it was the upstairs tenant or the owner. We checked in and were hoping to get some laundry done as we got off a cruise, but laundry was left in the dryer so we waited patiently until the evening. Overpriced.

Great location for visiting National Parks and Seattle! Kathy was easy to communicate with and accommodating for our late arrival and throughout our stay. We enjoyed taking the boats on the lake too. Would recommend this place for visiting Seattle and/or Mt. Rainer and Olympic National park.

Being on the garden level was perfect for us. We were close enough to Tacoma to be able to include another person to join in the festivities. The lake was amazing for kayaking. The only issue was the barbecue but one Kathy knew it wasn’t operational she was on it to get another. Thank you Kathy it was a great birthday weekend

After inital good communication with owner, we arrived very late to an abysmal property that was nothing like as advertised. Unsafe rock stairs to basement entrance. We informed thrbowner we would be arriving after dark and there was absolutely no appropriate loghting to find the key which was left in the bbq. Actually getting the door open in the dark was another obstacle. Once we were jnsode I immediately realized we couldnt stay. Thwre were no lights kn and we stumbled around looking for switches for light. More disappointing was that the unit was freezing and when we did have light the thermostate read 58. It was 11 p m and i had my young son with me. We were freezong trying to gwt the heat to turn on. After some back and forth the owner showed up and gave me a song and dance about the heat unit, the bottim line was, after 30min it was still 58deg. This doesnt even get to the part where the shower was a disgusting 3x3ft excuse for a shower, the "kitchen" was a fridge in the living area and essentially what looked like a temporary sink you would find in a camper. The owner refused to refund me in anyway. After an hour I ledt the unit for a hotel. If someone is willing to lose the cost of their stay and pay the cost for a hotel, then that tells you everything you need to know about this property. Avoid at all costs. I've happily stayed in many VRBOs for many years but never have experienced a situation as this. 9 out of 10 owners are excellent hosts, but not this one.

It was very easy to communicate with Kathy, before, during and after stay. She met us at check-in, gave us a tour of the house and property. Invited us to eat as many pears, plums and apples as we wanted. There were kayaks and a paddle boat with safery gear for use. The lake is charming and so laid back. Would definitely return.

Nice house on lake. Clean, well provisioned, great views and right on lake with use of paddle boat, pontoon rower, and kayak. Not high-end, more cabin-like. Great for our purposes, close to where a relative lived. Twin bedroom spacious, queen bedroom small. A couple of reviews complained about all the instructions and posted cautions. This is probably why the property is well-maintained. We found the owner friendly and very responsive. Appropriately priced, a good value for the price. excellent for small family.
