Large Pristine Property - slow internet
A large fully equipped, single storey property which is spotlessly clean and very well maintained. It is located in a quiet residential road not too far from the Interstate Highway. It is easy to get to Seattle (easiest to drive to Angle Lake Sounder Station and take advantage of free parking and $3.00 fare to the city centre) and not too far from Mt Rainier. The only downside is a frustratingly slow internet connection. I could only get a maximum of 11 Mbps and it would often drop to below 1 Mbps (not even enough to easily browse emails). The large TV in the viewing room was great, but the potential was limited to only satellite broadcast channels. A great property, as long as you don't need a fast internet connection.

Beautiful large home in a lovely neighborhood
We stayed here in June when we visited Seattle, Tacoma and Mt. Rainier. This home was so comfortable. The kitchen was big and fully stocked. Nice front porch. The laundry machine, dryer, refrigerator and all appliances were top quality! The home felt like home away from home. Even pantry had items that you would need to make a quick meal. We loved the lawn and the flowers in the front yard and back yard. The TV was big and the bathrooms also had enough towels, toileries etc. Beds were comfortable. Very, very convenient home. Mt. Rainier was a day trip from here. We also went to Boeing factory, other places in Seattle, Redmond, Tacoma, Puget Sound, Port etc. We had such a memorable and wonderful trip. I would highly recommend this home to anyone with a family. Spacious, comfortable and had a nice vibe.

We go seattle a couple tims a year and have always stayed in hotels. This house made our stay so much more comfortable. It is located in a quiet neighborhood and has the most adorable little back yard to relax in. Would definitely stay here again when we visit this area next time.

This property is ultra clean. It's locatedcin a quiet neighborhood. We were there during a work event and really only slept there. The beds were comfortable. The only thing that should have been indicated in the listing is the third bathroom is only a toilet. We were expecting 3 full bathrooms for all of to have our own bathroom.

We really enjoyed our stay. Home is in a quiet neighborhood, but within minutes of freeways that allow you to reach all the nearby cities (Tacoma, Renton, Sumner, Puyallup) in minutes. Seattle is 60-90 minutes.

Nice home with restrictions
Owner has used light colors to make home appealing but that puts an onus on renters for no shoes in the house. Beds comfortable, ample towels and linens. Kitchen is well stocked but disorganised. Refrigerator has many stable items but some seem fairly old. Loud party across street on Saturday nite and three train’s horns at night. Grocery shopping over 5 miles away. Borders on three stars. Have rented multiple VRBO properties. Suggest you bring slippers if you rent. .

Love this house
This house was perfect for my friend and I who as 1st timers to Seattle from the East Coast did some sightseeing and attended the Sew Expo at the Fairgrounds. We each had a comfortable room, fluffy towels, our own bath, and a kitchen to have breakfast a a couple of dinners. The pantry of left behind items allowed us not to buy spices and other kitchen supplies. We want to return to Seattle and this is the only place we will consider staying. Wish we would have taken the opportunity to enjoy the backyard. It looked delightful. Communication with the owner was super fast and easy. They were very kind and gracious.
