I’ve stayed in many short term rental properties and this was, hands down, one of the very best. The words “cute” and “cozy” best capture the essence, but the Captain’s Quarters is so much more. It’s small, but perfect for up to a couple (comfy queen bed) plus, perhaps, one sleeping on the couch. The host is amazingly kind and responsive to communications. Street parking is very close, easy, and free. The WiFi works well. If I needed to, I could’ve worked on my laptop here. We will, unquestionably, be returning as we need to be in Ballard every couple of months.

I loved this cute stay in Ballard area. Perfect for my work trip. The bed was so cozy. Lights and ocean sounds were so fun and inviting. I couldn't figure out the coffee situation but everything else was perfect. Will book again!

Cozy comfort
I was traveling for unfortunate reasons, and I was so grateful to have a comfortable home base during my stay in Seattle. Heidi has designed the space with a great eye for detail. The entire experience, from communicating before the trip, to checking in, the stay itself, and check out -- all of the communication was clear and accurate. I never had to worry about anything while I was there. Thank you, Heidi!!

Cozy and convenient, loved our stay
My wife and i chose this place for our honeymoon and were very happy with the accommodations. Heidi was a great host and made sure that we were supplied with towels, coffee/tea and good wi-fi. The patio is perfect for playing a quick 3-hole round of mini-golf before heading out for bigger adventures. There are several great restaurants as well as a Safeway grocery store within short distance of this unit. Ideal for a couple or solo.

Cute little nautical themed in a great quiet neighborhood
Heidi was excellent in sharing highlights in the neighborhood. The unit is on the small side, but it is lovingly appointed with nautical themes. There is a bit of a small step from the main space to the bathroom. Heidi communicated clearly and there were fun snacks and great coffee ready to go. All the furniture and the linens were high quality

About the host

Hosted by MightyHeidi Engelbert

Host profile image
I'm creative energy, always looking at life as a glass half full- with wine even better!
I Love entertaining friends, family and now guests. Being an outstanding host has been my personal passion for 4 years as a superhost concurrently.
My Former Career as a Creative Director/ Window Designer at the Bon Marche/ Macy's Northwest for 20 years, taught me how important the details are in everything. In life pivots occur sticking with retail for 10 more years I became a Mannequin Designer and sales rep; often on the road traveling 2 weeks out of the month staying at 5-star accommodations gave me the experience of what a seasoned traveler needs and wants! Clean, Quiet, Peaceful space with Positive Energy, Good Wifi, Night Light and an honor bar with special touches.
Next Pivot brought me to designing home interiors with the big retail wows along with still dabbling in corporate office and window design. I have a passion for how color impacts emotions diving deeper into this I have been creating Frankie's hearts where I create objects with pet and human ashes (not as dark as it sounds)
When Creating; Captains Quarters we had 2 influences: Winston "The Captain" 17-year-old Maltese now playing on the rainbow bridge with Captain Steve Zissou. My motto is you can mix Kindness, Style with a touch of humor - my key ingredient is, whimsy BUT not cluttered. SHIP SHAPE.
I have a unique take on Seattle/Ballard due to my Family history here. I love to share my Seattle. Yes, my grandfather was a salty bootlegger here in Ballard.
I will provided a list of fun unique spots to eat, shop, local hikes or secret bars or beach spots.
We also offer a special Pike Place Market Scavenger hunt to Find my abbreviated name that's been walked over for 35 years.
I love life!

Why they chose this property

Personal Touches- were more of an "experience" then just a stay! 420 friendly, spick and span clean, close to everything! pet friendly personalized bottle by me or you add the message. Unique tourist ideas most locals even miss.
After each stay, I review if any updates or improvements are needed, in the age of COVID I took my normal cleaning routine to a new level adding a cleansebot. I always listen to the voice of my guests from adding a full-length mirror to a cutting board that spans the sink “I listen” when guest make suggestions.

What makes this property unique

We are an 'experience" from Special touches; message in a bottle, customized set ups per request, battery operated candles for romance, Unique adventure ideas, Miniature- Miniature golf course, fire pit, 420 friendly , Pet friendly & BBQ. Quaint walkable neighborhood with 2 blocks of award-winning restaurants, shop, close to cannabis and parks. 5 min ride to downtown Ballard, green lake, Freemont, 15 min to downtown Seattle or the University District. Right off the D line bus getting you to climate pledge arena in 10-15 min. Family History I share with the willing. We also read our guest if you want to chat we do If you want no contact or conversation we honor your privacy with passing on the putting green.
