Lots of space to hang out in. Owner was nice and left us a card/flowers at the beginning of our stay and communication was pretty quick. There was a bit of upstairs noise but it was not anything too obtrusive. Love the kitchen and amenities included!

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.

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.
