About this property

Tranquil Lake House near Seattle, Issaquah, Redmond

Ideally situated on the eastern side of beautiful Lake Sammamish for fabulous sunsets and a tranquil setting, the Cottage on Sammamish is a newly renovated vacation venue. You feel rested and away from the busy world. Many people say it feels you are in a boat with the large windows facing and very near the lake.
Yet, just up the hill from the house (5 min drive) is a large Safeway and a multitude of convenient take-away shops and restaurants. 10 mins north and you are in the middle of Redmond (Microsoft town!) and the Redmond Town Centre. 10 mins south and you have Costco, Bestbuy, FredMeyer, etc on the pretty town of Issaquah. Both towns are linked with a pretty well preserved state trail that passes on the back of the Cottage, where you can walk, run or bike. The cottage also is close to Seattle itself. (20 miles - 30 min)


Come enjoy the Cottage on Sammamish for your next vacation or corporate visit to the Seattle area.

The Cottage has:
Over 900 square feet of living space
2 bedrooms – sleeping up to 6 people
Complete kitchen (we mean it!)
Living Room
Dining Room
Two sunny decks facing the lake
Shade deck on back of cottage surrounded by a relaxing, stunning garden area.
Parking for to 2 cars

Lake Sammamish: The second largest lake in the Seattle area is 7 miles long, 1.5 miles wide with a maximum depth of 105 feet. Bordered on the north by Marymoor Park and Lake Sammamish Park on the south, this is an ideal water sports lake. You can use our 3 kayaks to explore the lake or even our paddle board while vacationing at Cottage on Sammamish.

Beautiful and peaceful

This was a lovely place to stay, incredibly quiet and peaceful. We particularly enjoyed the direct access to the beautiful walking/biking path that goes around the lake. The house is cozy and clean, with all the amenities you could need. The property managers are super friendly and considerate, we felt very welcomed.

Holiday family time

This property, right on Lake Sammamish, was spacious enough for 2 adults and two children. Great views and access to the water. Kitchen and bathroom facilities provided everything we needed for a 12 day stay. Cable tv Netflix and many books for our entertainment. Several stairs lead down to the house from car park.

Wonderful Lake Sammamish Lake House

We had such a wonderful time at this lake house. The property is just as the pictures and the location is simply perfect. Sunrise and Sunsets on the dock are spectacular. We took our teenage girls here for Spring Break and had the best time. Communication was very prompt and it was easy to find. I highly recommend this location.

Family Celebration!

It was great to return to the Lake House, this time to use the dock for boating and fun! As always, we were grateful for the well maintained (and stocked!) accomodations and thoughtful attention from our hosts. Area family joined us in celebrating our 50th and of course, we'll return again!

What a great stay

This was a family vacation with kids 10-16. Listing was accurate. Place was amazing. The owner Don was really fun. I’d love to sit and chat a bit more on another trip. Great host, great place and a lot of fun. The beds were actually comfortable and I have trouble sleeping (not there). Will be looking to come back as this is on my favorite list…

Best for Families with Children

This large rambling house is best for families with children. For the adults, it is a mixed bag. The lake side of the house is windows giving a great view. There is a cozy protected porch which was great for Covid visits. But tucked inside the cabinets of the otherwise clean kitchen was a very dirty pot cover and dirty worn out linens. The worn out living room chairs and bed coverings need to be replaced. This spacious house offers privacy and room to play.

Perfect Location on the Lake!

We reserved this house for a fun weekend getaway and it did not disappoint! We live in Seattle, but were looking for a lake house to enjoy as the summer was coming to a close. Everything in the photos is accurate and as described. We had 4 adults and a 5 month old with us, and everyone had plenty of room. Don, the owner, was a pleasure to work with. He greeted us upon arrival and gave us a tour of the property. He also made himself available throughout the weekend if we needed anything. We enjoyed all aspects including the lake, hot tub, and grill! Locations to do some grocery shopping were very close, so it made things easy. We are already looking at dates next summer to go back!

Lake house beauty

Don is a gem and sweet as can be. The home is in a quiet neighborhood with its own personal dock. The lake is beautiful and bird watching is fantastic. We saw blue heron, bald eagles, Canadian geese and goslings, Mallards and their ducklings. As the sun sets another wave of animals come out: moths, spiders, bats, mosquitoes. We enjoyed the dock before sunset and enjoyed the sunsets and watching the night critters from inside looking out at the beautiful view. It’s nice to have wood floors throughout most of the house, and the cellar is at least 10-15 degrees cooler than other parts of the home. It’s also stocked with lots of books in the basement and a nice selection of DVDs. The pictorial book on the local history of Lake Sammamish is definitely worth a read and easy to do in 10 minutes or less. We were happy to find a few chilled sparkling waters and sodas waiting for us as well as microwaveable popcorn. Don also told us about local restaurants and grocery stores. Note for those with walking issues, there is an outdoor staircase that you must walk down with your luggage to access the lake house.

The Cottage is very open to the outside and lake. Lot's of lovely places to hang out and enjoy the view (we particularly enjoyed the covered sitting area). Seattle was a 35 minute drive and there were plenty of places near by for supplies and food.

Little slice of Heaven!

Best vacation in years! The cottage location right on the lake can't be beat. There are magnificent views from nearly every angle. Our sunset glass of wine on the dock was my favorite part of the day. We cooked every night thanks to the fully functional kitchen. Everything was comfortable and clean. Our hosts were amazing. We are counting down the days until we can return. What an amazing little paradise!

About the host

Hosted by Gustavo Junqueira

Host profile image
'Life is an adventure' and 'dreams come true if you believe in them' I have been two sayings that have fit together in my life. One dream I had was to learn to speak Spanish. I had never studied Spanish in any
of my schooling, and while working and helping raise my family I never found or took the time. It was not until I was into my fifties that I took my first Spanish course, and after that it became somewhat of a 'hobby' and then a passion. This passion also spread to the Latin
culture and my desire to communicate and get to know people in Spanish speaking countries. The adventures started when I chose as my was of 'immersion' into the Spanish speaking world, to travel by land and mostly bus through Central America and extensively in Mexico. I did this by flying only one way to my chosen destination and returning to the boarder, usually in Tijuana/San Diego by bus or at times by boat. This included from Guatemala/El Salvador, Mexico city and my furthest destination was Nicaragua.
Another passion is for the outdoors and nature and that includes skiing in the Cascade Mountains in the winter.

Why they chose this property

I have lived on the east shore of Lake Sammamish for 40 years. My wife and I moved from the Philippine Islands after finishing my tour of duty in the Air Force, together with our 6 month old daughter, into a small cottage which is still a part of a now larger house that got added onto a room at a time over many years. The 'Cottage on Sammamish' is next door and from there guest can enjoy the same beautiful views, stunning sunsets and fun activities I've been having for decades
