Julie's relaxing garden cottage is a true hidden gem! Upon arrival Julie was a very accommodating host telling us all about her charming Columbia City, which is the quaint town with some excellent restaurants and shops nearby. The cottage itself is very cozy, clean and nicely decorated and is the perfect size for a traveling couple. The bed was VERY comfortable and the electric fireplace heater kept us warm at night. Julie let us use the jacuzzi every night and was even sweet enough to turn it on upon request when we were out to let it warm up. She was easy to communicate with and I'd give her an A+ for all her help and generosity.
Great proximity: It was a very convenient 15 minute drive from the airport and only 10 minute walk to the nearest light rail public transit that takes you right into downtown Seattle. Also it was only a short walk to downtown Columbia City. The location was just far enough outside Seattle to not be located in the hussle and bussle of the city, but still only about a 20 minute drive/light rail ride into Seattle. I would highly recommended this location based on our amazing stay! Must Go!
