I needed a place to stay close to my family for a few days. I feel so very lucky to have found Barb’s rental. It was a more wonderful& quiet respite than I ever expected. Also, very clean and comfortable, everything was better than described. I will definitely be back!

Wonderful Apartment near Seattle
My husband and I had a great stay for a long weekend at this apartment in the Covington area south east of Seattle. So many recreational activities in the area and just about 30-45 minutes from Seattle. The apartment was very clean, nicely decorated, spacious, and the kitchen was thoroughly stocked. George and Barb were very helpful and available if needed. The yard is beautiful. Very quiet and private. We will definitely be back—great place to stay and see our adult children in Seattle.

Amazing Value
This unit is spacious and very well maintained. The location is second to none with a wonderful lake just a short walk to the north. Walking or running on the neighborhood streets was a quiet and beautiful experience. The unit was clean and had new appliances and furnishings. It was conveniently located close to restaurants, hiking, and shopping. We had 3 adults in our party and the Owner surprised us with a second bedroom fully furnished in lieu of the advertised aero-matress! It was heaven!!

Beautiful!
From the moment we arrived we felt very welcomed. There was sweet tea, water and fresh cream in the frig. There was also a bowl of fresh fruit. Our second night George built us a fire in the firepit for smores, he even made us sticks for our marshmallows. We truly felt like queens. Our four days there were so peaceful and relaxing, we really hated to leave. I have been using VRBO for at least 8 years and this is the nicest place I have ever stayed. Thank you so much George and Barb for sharing your beautiful home.

Beautiful place & wonderful hosts!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The apartment itself is very open and lovely, and feels completely like your own private space from the main home, along with your own private yard and patio. Beautifully decorated, cheerful, and comfortable interior. The landscape and community was gorgeous-- especially noticeable to our family as we are newcomers to WA. We had an extended stay at this rental while moving to WA and trying to find a long-term rental home in the area. The owners were absolutely amazing, and so welcoming. They brought us home-roasted coffee (yum!), and even assisted us with resources to help find our next home in WA. We couldn't have asked for better accommodations & hospitality. We also had our 2 year old & infant with us, and they didn't complain about noisy babies at all! We highly recommend this rental to anyone looking to explore this beautiful area.

My mother lives nearby, so it’s really convenient to have Barb’s rental so close. It’s perfect for me and I really enjoy having my own space with so much family staying at my mom’s house. This property is very quiet, comfortable and clean, it feels like my home away from home!

Awesome generous owners, had a lovely weekend
We stayed at Barb's place and got absolutely snowed in (more than we expected). Barb and George shoveled our patio ASAP, offered to get us take out or groceries if our car was snowed in, and even let us stay an additional night when the roads were too slick to drive. The unit was very spacious and I loved the full kitchen - we baked a lot and cooked over the couple days we were there. I really enjoyed the creek next to their house and I had fun birdwatching in the mornings. Can't want to see the nature in the area next time we visit.
