Lovely home!

Adorable house that was perfect for our family of four. Beautiful landscaping which I enjoyed studying. Kitchen and house are well-equipped and cared for. I think our entire family’s lives were changed by the massage chair - really helpful after taking the stairs down from the space needle! Hope to make this “our” place to stay whenever we are in town!

Cute cottage with great views

We enjoyed our stay in the historical cottage. The home was clean and there were access to a lot of amenities in both the kitchen and bathroom (spices, shampoos/conditioners). Host was easy to get a hold of and answered any questions quickly. We loved the view off the front patio. Given good weather, we were able to eat meals and relax on the patio, watch the planes land, etc. We would definitely like to rent again the next time we are in Kent.

Great house / great location!

We stayed in this home for a week for a general area vacation. It’s in a great central location to downtown / Mt. Rainier etc. Restaurants and shopping are close as well. The house is cute with a lot of charm. It was clean and well stocked, and the homeowner was very friendly and responsive. The massage chair is other worldly after a long day out! We would definitely stay here again!

Smelled and not clean

Normally I don't leave a bad review but I had to for this one so it doesn't happen to anyone else.Online the pictures look great who ever took those pictures did a awesome job. But sadly once you get to the house is not in a good neighborhood to start with, when you walk up to the doors the cameras say a message "You are currently being recorded" every time you walk past it. When you walk inside it smells like a cat litter box or something of assorts. There was a dirty rolled up carpet in the driveway where you park, a random tire in the front yard, hair in the bathrooms floor/tub, the refrigerator was dirty. Just all a round not a good stay couldn't feel comfortable because of the house and the area. When we left she wanted to charge us more money which later we found out was for a dog fee that we did forget to add when we completed the registration for the stay when you go to pay for it"that was our bad and we did pay her" she was really rude about it especially when we told her about the cleanliness of the house which she then accused our dog of peeing on the rug which she didn't and complained about our dog shedding which she did do a little bit when we where there. When I looked for a house I looked for a pet friendly so if there is bhair, that is part of having dogs. Out of all of the houses we have stayed at this by far the worst one and am sad to even be writing about it.

A Gorgeous Gem of a Home

It's even more beautiful than the pictures, and more spacious than it looks in photos. We appreciated so many luxurious touches--the world's softest towels and sheets, ultra comfortable beds, sharp knives for cooking and a very well-stocked kitchen. Our kids loved playing the games from the cabinet, and the views were truly beautiful.

Great view!

Nice place to stay, had a few issues, nothing major. Nothing to call the host about, but worth noting. * You should bring your own towels, the towels are very thin and don't dry well, and are still wet 24 hours later. * Shower is very small, so if you are a big person like me, you will struggle. * Found a beer bottle behind the couch, that's why the lower rating on cleanliness. * The neighborhood is ok, saw several halfway houses near by, so make sure to lock the doors, we did not have any issues. * The host is very nice, no complaints there. Overall a nice house in a convenient location. Could use a few upgrades, but it was very cute.

Wonderful Property

We were here for 5 weeks for the birth of our Granddaughter. It is a Great Location...Close to grocery shopping and restaurants. The beds are very comfortable. The house is very clean and spacious. Cindy was a wonderful hostess and very available in a timely manner if she is needed. The built in dressers in all of the bedrooms was so nice to put stuff away for toddlers. The view is beautiful and it was nice to have the working barbecue. I think anyone would enjoy staying in this quaint older home.It is well stocked with plenty of shampoo and conditioner. There was even laundry soap down in the laundry area. Quiet neighborhood. It was perfect for us! Thank you for everything Cindy! Gayle from Calif.

Clean and comfy.

Cindy's place was perfect. A very well maintained old home with cute decor and comfy beds. We didn't get to use the front patio & bbq, but it did have a great view at night with all the city lights. Next time we will. The upstairs does get a little warm during the day, but cools off during the night. Cindy is very responsive and answers any questions you may have. Thanks Cindy!

Old but quaint

Home is very old but has character, bedrooms could definitely use some decor on the walls, it felt very plain but overall it’s a cute house. Location is ok, neighborhood has very steep streets. Cindy was quick to respond to my questions. Heads up, the housekeeper shows up at 10:50 so be ready to exit by 11:00!
