Great stay!

Easy check in and check out, bed was up in a little loft which I quite enjoyed. Quick and friendly greeting by the owner, which I enjoyed. I’d stay again for sure!

Perfect little cottage

1st time visit to Seattle and this cute little place could not have been more perfect. Great neighborhood with restaurants and bars just a few blocks away. Close to the harbor and easy drive to the downtown area. Doug was a perfect host.

Super cozy spot in a great neighborhood

This was perfect for my needs - a comfortable, cozy spot in a great neighborhood. Close to restaurants and bus lines. Quiet and with access to the back yard (my niece stopped by with her dog who had fun running around). Appreciated the extra touch with snack & beverages. Hosts super nice.

Loads of comfort in a tiny house

For being over 6ft tall, I had no issues living in this space. The couch and mattress were very comfortable, and the bathroom was big enough for 2 of us to get ready at the same time (a bit cramped but understandable). As long as you don't need a lot of room to leave things out, this is the perfect place to come back after a full day exploring Seattle. Street parking was tight but we were able to park within a house or two every night. Last but not least, Doug was very responsive and personable. We would definitely stay here again!

Charming stay in a great neighborhood

Nice place, everything worked, all was pleasant. Steep ladder up to bedroom, would not be good for elderly guests.

About the host

Host profile image
My wife and I are from upstate NY originally. We both love the outdoors and exploring everything that Seattle has to offer. We are avid travelers and love hosting. Let us know how we can make your experience a memorable one!

Why they chose this property

Ballard has good VIBES! We moved here from Queen Anne and loved the neighborhood. Walking to our favorite restaurants and shops is fantastic. Our street is a tight-knit little community that looks out for each other. You'll feel part of the community when you visit our little slice of heaven in the PNW.

What makes this property unique

We are right at the base of Phinney Ridge and Green Lake. A short walk up the hill, and you're immersed in coffee shops, boutiques, markets, and amazing restaurants. You don't need a car to get around. Bus stops, Lyft, scooters...all readily available. Green Lake is a famous 3-mile loop around a picturesque lake filled with wildlife and locals. You can rent kayaks, go fishing, or simply enjoy the park.

The Ballard Locks and marina are home to the infamous PNW Fleet, including the Deadliest Catch crab boats. You can book whale-watching tours, scenic tours, scenic plane rides and so much more!

Let us know if you need any suggestions. We are happy to help you find hidden gems that you may not know about if you're from out of town :)
