This home was in a great location, the hidden driveway was hard to find at first but it was a nice secluded driveway away from the streets. The house was very spacious, enough for our family that for the weekend we stayed we didn't even use the funished basement. Only thing was that some of the doors were sticky so hard to open/close and the downstairs bathroom did not lock. I would go back. ##### Emily Y.

Spacious, beautiful, comfy furniture, it was perfect. Patricia was super helpful and checked in with me several times to make sure everything was going well. We got a ton of snow while we were there, and they were on the snow removal. The kitchen was a wonderful place to cook, nice appliances. Great coffee/tea center. Only thing that was missing were some decent kitchen tools. There were some basics but there weren't any measuring cups or measuring spoons and the wine opener was really cheap and hard to use. (That’s being super knitpicky) The area is beautiful and there was ample parking. It was quiet and lovely. Highly recommend!!! ##### Sandy E. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary S. 5 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful place Rented this for a reunion weekend with three dear friends that came in from across the country, and it was a great choice. I was worried because of the proximity of the road, but we didn't hear traffic at all. The house was sparkling clean and had lots of room; a first floor bedroom was a great option. It's a very comfortable, spacious place with spots for gathering but also places to spread out if you want. There were some unfortunate issues with the a/c and the dishwasher, but the host was working on those and was very clear and incredibly responsive in communicating. She had also been super helpful before our arrival with questions I had -- very patient and kind. The area has nearby restaurants ranging from casual to more upscale, and it's not far from various things to do. We mostly stayed "home" and yakked, but also went for walks at nearby Cranbrook, went to a farmer's market, walked to Starbucks, and walked around the neighborhood (to burn off the snacking calories). I would come back here without hesitation. ##### Mary S. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Curvie H., Puyallup, WA 12 Jul 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Mixed Experience with a Few Highlights. I recently rented this property as part of a summer road trip with my family. Starting with the positives. First and foremost, the owner of the property was fantastic when it came to communication. They even went the extra mile by calling me directly to discuss an issue we had encountered. They promptly arranged for a repair person to address our concerns before our departure. This level of responsiveness and dedication was truly commendable. Additionally, the house itself was spacious, providing more than enough room for our family of 4 with 2 large TVs in the living room and basement. The kitchen was adequately equipped. The peaceful neighborhood was conveniently located close to plenty of restaurants. Another highlight was the updated bathrooms, with the upstairs shower being particularly impressive. Now, the negatives. One significant issue we faced was with the A/C which emitted a loud random squeal that woke us up in the middle of the night on our 1st night. Despite the owner's diligent efforts to get it fixed the problem persisted, sleep was an issue. Additionally, being an older house, the upstairs floors and stairs squeaked loudly, which was especially noticeable since the rooms were relatively plain. It felt like the sound traveled more in the large, empty spaces. TVs would’ve been nice to help distract from the noisy floors. Lastly, while the overall cleanliness of the house was satisfactory, the garage floor hadn't been cleaned in months it seemed. ##### Curvie H.

Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean H. 9 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing property This property matched almost every bit of our needs. Having a ground floor bedroom with a full bathroom, was extremely convenient for my elderly parents. The bathroom was a bit small, with a tub, but manageable considering my Mother uses a walker. A walk in shower would have been best, but we understand the difference. The AC was not working properly, but a simple text with the owner and it was repaired the next day. Being the 2 hottest days this year didn't help, but since we live close, we made adjustments. I still would have liked it cooler upstairs. This rental was needed for my elderly parents, as my daughter was getting married and we were busy with setting up the 2 days of events for a traditional Indian wedding and making last minute adjustments, running back and forth from our home to this house. Property is extreme clean and new looking, kitchen does not have a fan for when cooking, so we had to open the windows. Kitchen TV was not working properly and there was no pods for dishwasher. A proper pre-check should be done before each renter. We loved the cookware and available extras in the kitchen. Amazing extra large dining table with a couple of sliding chairs for the elderly parents. Upstairs King bed, was very comfortable to sleep in! Thank you for hosting us, would definitely recommend this home to anyone. ##### Sean H. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2022
