We went to a wedding in Ballard and this was the perfect place to stay. The owners were very accomodating and the house itself had so much to offer. Our stay will be a part of fond memories for years to come.

This home was breathtakingly beautiful as we walked in the door. Each room we walked into we were all awed by how much character we saw. Also very tastefully decorated and everything that we could of ever needed was there and easy to find. The notes on how to work things were very much appreciated. We all were very impressed with how soundproof the home was also. Once you get past the beauty of the home and go out into the yard you are again amazed at the beauty. There are so many pretty trees, flowers, bushes. Looking at the house from the yard you feel like you are staying in a cute treehouse.

My son, daughter-in-law, their 14 month old toddler and I stayed at this lovely home. It was very comfortable and everything was provided for our needs. It did take a little bit of baby proofing for a one-year-old on the move, but it was well worth it. it was close to everything we wanted to do, including a trip to the zoo

This was our second time staying at Happy Valley, and it was just as great as the first time! Jon & Kara are very responsive hosts, and try their best to think of all the little things that go into making a great experience for their guests. We loved having a nice outdoor area and plenty of room to stretch out inside as well. This is not a cookie-cutter hotel type of place; instead, it is a house filled with color, creative personality, nice furnishings and a sense of humor. It is a very special place!

The cottage was perfect for our family, from games and toys for the children to thoughtful amenities for the adults. The hosts provided helpful instructions for everything and were responsive to our questions. The cottage was beautiful and we would like to stay again on our next visit to the Seattle area.

Great location , beautiful home, responsive host

This house served us well (couple and kids who took the upstairs, grandma who took downstairs). We are a family who like to cook together which was ok in the small sized kitchen but we would have liked some more pans to be able to cook a dinner and better knives to prepare it. Kitchen would become higher points with attention to a coherent set of dishes, pans , knives, cutlery and essentials.
Kind touch with waters in fridge upstairs and down and great coffee setup. We felt welcome.

cute, nice house on nice property, with a qwerky flare, but very comfortable. Quiet neighborhood. well decorated, plenty of sleeping room for families, or friends. Owners were very available for questions.
