Barbara is an amazing hostess - available to answer any questions, very accessible. The cottage is beautiful, well designed, and clean. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms are spacious. Love the kitchen island and outdoor decks on two sides. Ample room for parking. Absolutely lovely visit, we will be back.

Overall our stay went well…there were things that I would like to see different. The main living area to sit and visit in was just the big island and dining table. No couch or chairs available which wasn’t a huge issue but just something I was not use to.
5.0
This place is amazing. Loved, loved, loved it. It was so relaxing and Barbara was very precious. We honestly did not want to leave. I would definitely stay there again if I am ever in Parkland.
However, if you are a chef or love to cook the kitchen was definitely lacking appliances. No blender, no mixer, no proper cutting knives, no measuring cups, no graters etc.
If you love to eat out instead of cooking then you would have no problem finding good places to eat.
The kitchen situation was the only drawback for me.

We had a wonderful stay here with Barbara, the very friendly host. House is clean, beds are comfortable, and kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies. I'd definitely recommend it.

Barbara was a great host liked having her on the property. Very responsive in taking care of all our needs. Blinds on the windows in the common areas would be nice for privacy.

My sons and I stayed in Barbara's beautifully designed cottage over Memorial Day weekend for PLU's graduation ceremony.
The kitchen has great appliances, the beds are good, and the bathrooms are spacious. (The primary bathroom feels as large as the bedroom.) There are plenty of cabinets and counterspace. Light streams in from every direction. We also appreciated the laundry room. Barbara's warm welcome and the gorgeous views were the icing on our stay. We enjoyed sitting on the porch observing the birds and gorgeous flowers around the pond. (We could hear some traffic noise from the nearby road, but it wasn't obtrusive.)
There are plenty of chairs, inside and out, but no couch to sit on, since there is no living or family room. The kitchen-dining area is the main part of the guest cottage. That wasn't an issue for us, but may affect some visitors.
We recommend the Tacoma Cottage--especially if you want a beautiful kitchen for cooking or eating in, or enjoy relaxing on a porch which has great views.

This is a lovely cottage located in a serene place with beautiful wildlife and your own pond. It has open space, chic, comfortable, and with all the amenities you wish for (heated floor, ergonomic bed, open kitchen). We feel rested after 3 nights here. The hostess is super nice and helpful. You just want to retire here.

This property is amazing: spacious layout, calm, surrounded by nature and wild life, gated and safe, clean, and friendly hostess. After spending 3 nights here we feel well rested. Simply beautiful!
5.0
We enjoyed delightful views of small bodies of water from every window, and an expansive, well-appointed, well-stocked kitchen. Even though our stay was in the depths of winter, the house is so well situated and the grounds so nicely designed, that it was a pleasure beyond expectations. Barbara was even kind enough to allow us to reschedule to a later time after our Christmas Eve Eve flight was cancelled due to a deep freeze. Highly recommended!

This stay could not have been better. Roomy, clean and well-appointed property was perfect for our needs. There were only two of us…business colleagues who worked really hard during the day and rested well at night. Cooked every dinner meal at the house and made good use of the patios and grill for outdoor relaxing. Well appointed kitchen had everything we needed! ADA friendly with wide doors and walk-in shower. We have already booked our next stay!
