GUEST ACCESS - At this property, there are three private living units. The first and second floors of the house are 2 separate rentals and the third is the Host's private RV "Breezy" which is only on the property when the Hosts are in town. They are...

CITY ESCAPE - Your unit is the main part of the house on the upper level. Its private access is at the main front door and the unit allows 2 free dedicated parking spaces parked in the driveway closest to the main door.

ALDERWOOD NEST - The second unit is a studio apartment on the lower level. Its private access is a door at the back of the house, and this unit allows 2 free dedicated parking spaces parked in the driveway furthest from the main door.

SHARED SPACES - The backyard with swings and an outdoor table and chairs with an umbrella, the front yard, and the drive.

COMMUNITY - The surrounding neighborhood and community is a standard open neighborhood with a quick drive or walk to retail, restaurants, grocery, civic, and freeway entrances. There is a nice children's park just a few blocks away.

OTHER NOTES - We are looking forward to a brand new deck sometime shortly. Meanwhile, the deck is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience and I am sure you will still fully enjoy your stay. Meanwhile, you can enjoy the beautiful backyard through the access at the east side of the home. The yard is beautiful year-round, but it is kept in its natural state through the late fall to early spring to give more habitat to animals and birds, give nutrients to the lawn and flowerbeds, and give you a sense of season and natural habitat.

Grandma's visit

We enjoyed our stay and being able to meet the owners and their family. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. We were disappointed to discover the back deck was unusable. We had been looking forward to being outside to enjoy coffee in the morning. As older ladies we also were concerned about the slippery tub. A no skid mat should be available. We appreciated the installation of a gate at the top of the stairway into the house for young families. However, it was not very secure.

Accommodating

We were in town for the funeral of my husband's father. We met here with our adult children and two grandchildren. The owners did everything they could to accommodate us, letting us come a little early to drop off bags before we headed to a family gathering the first day, and offering whatever possible to make our time easier. The house was pleasant, clean and well-equipped. It was a little warm the first night because we had higher temperatures than usual in the Pacific Northwest and the fans were more effective if we could leave all the doors opened--which we couldn't. However that only affected the first night. The thoughtful touches in every room and the condiments, some food, and beverage's in the kitchen made it a place where we could relax and be together. Thanks so much.

Good stay

Great location, quiet neighborhood. Wonderful kitchen! All the supplies we needed. Older home with few electric outlets. Baby gate at the stairs. Gate would be great for small children, it was a bit of a pain for us. Would recommend having it taken down if possible for folks who don't need it. Really nice home, GREAT hosts!

Convenient

This is an older property with need of a few cosmetic repairs. It was spotless clean upon arrival. The host was quick to reply to any questions or needs. It is ideally located, a 4 min drive to shops, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Would definitely rent again.
