Wonderful cozy home

Home is clean and has everything you would need for short and long term stays. The house was exactly as described and in a quiet/friendly neighborhood. Many neighbors are out walking dogs morning and night. We loved that both back and front yard is fenced and plenty of parking. Joyce was a wonderful host and very responsive. Thank you for letting us stay in your home!

Flawless three-week stay

This was the perfect retreat for my husband and I while we were in town for extended medical care at UW Medical northwest. The home is in a quiet and safe neighborhood with easy access to the bus system and the light rail station at Shoreline South. It is a very pleasant, 30-minute walk to the UW Medical campus. We shopped regularly at the nearby Safeway and the upscale Town and Country grocery store, and enjoyed a lovely dinner at Saltoro, a nearby Italian restaurant. The home itself was wonderful. Very well-equipped kitchen, very comfortable furniture and beds, excellent wifi and television options, spacious back yard, and our nights were quiet and restful. I'm incredibly grateful we found Joyce's sweet little guest house. Many thanks!

Wonderful Home!

My communication prior to our arrival was excellent and included a home manual so I knew what to expect before we got to the house. The home is wonderful! Super clean, gorgeous and peaceful decor, comfortable furniture in all the rooms and the kitchen - wow! We were in town to visit UW Medical so it wasn't for fun, but staying here made the stress of the trip so much easier to handle. We needed to cook at the house for dietary reasons, and if you love high end appliances, this is the home for you! The home is in a very quiet neighborhood, the drapes darken the bedrooms perfectly at night and the A/C is quite adequate for comfortable sleeping. I can't think of a single thing that wasn't done to perfection. Oh wait, coasters! They were probably stashed somewhere in the multitude of cupboards and drawers in the kitchen, but I couldn't find them and worried about leaving water rings on the end tables. Paper towels did the trick though...whew! =)

Lots of attention on the little things

The house includes many small little extras that are above and beyond the average stay. Hair ties, toiletries, snacks, instructions and information all around including a digital board with so much information. The bedding and linens were high end as well as great pillows. We had a great stay.

Home away from home!

This property is amazing! Clean as can be, beds are beyond comfortable. Shower is wonderful! Perfect for pets. We traveled with our 2 small dogs and both the back yard and front yard are fenced. The hosts are incredibly kind and we had great communication. They have not forgotten a thing in this home to make your stay comfortable. Everything is there as far as kitchen tools and cooking equipment. Cozy quiet neighborhood. Good location! We will stay again in the future. What a great experience!

Perfect Seattle Cottage

Just had a fablous stay at this great cottage! My 25yo son and I stayed to visit my other son and grandkids. Was in a great neighborhood, convenient to the Northgate Station and Freeway. Home was immaculate, plenty of linens and kitchen items for all your needs. Beds were very comfortable and plenty of closet space. Hosts are wonderful! I hope this perfect home will be available for our next visit!!!

Perfect Place for Us

My wife and I love this house and will more than likely return. We liked the quiet neighborhood location and appreciated the privacy and cleanliness in addition to the quality of the bedding, towels, kitchenwares and furniture. My only minor issue was sound reverberation from the central air fan in the back corner bedroom. More of a white noise than anything else. Overall, our experience here was very pleasant! This is the best house we have ever rented.

Very comfortable stay

We were delighted by this home, it lived up to its description. The home felt like someone’s actual home with thoughtful furniture, items and linens, not just a rental. We were extremely relieved and comfortable in this home and would gladly rent it again. Yard is great for dogs, fully fenced in, neighborhood is quiet but very convenient.

About the host

Hosted by Joyce Juntunen

Host profile image
This guest house was purchased with hospitality in mind and inspired by our dear pup, Josie, who was a friend to all she met. For those of you who are new to Seattle, you are in for a treat. I moved here in 1996 and fell in love with the city and surrounding area with its mild temperatures and proximity to water, mountains and rainforest. My husband grew up in the area and has lived here all his life. We have wonderful parks, hikes, winter sports, restaurants and wine just minutes away plus Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders, Storm, Reign and now the Kraken (their practice facility is in the neighborhood). Just don’t ask about the Super Sonics!

Why they chose this property

I love the Haller Lake neighborhood because it is very residential - mostly single family homes so it's quiet. It's close to light rail, UW Medical Center - Northwest, Northgate and tons of shopping. There is also Haller Lake itself which is a very close place to swim, paddleboard or float in the warm months.

What makes this property unique

We love this little house with it's big fenced yard! We are continually improving it and adding more creature comforts but all of our furnishings are less than 2 years old. We added brand-new Molecule mattresses, Brooklinen sheets, towels and bedding and Caraway cookware. If you plan on cooking, there is a fully stocked kitchen with every appliance and utensil you could possibly need! Since we are dog lovers, we made the house pet-friendly and have provided a dog bed, food bowls and a toy or two. And, of course, we love to host so if you need something, just ask!
