This place is the lower floor of a two-story house, situated just next to Lake Washington. In fact, we can see the lake and Mountain Rainier from the balcony. The surroundings are absolutely stunning, with a 5-minute walk to the bank of the lake and multiple scenic routes for strolling. Rao and XingChun are very nice people who welcomed us during our check-in and helped fix issues (e.g., a light bulb that went out, assembling a desk for work) without hesitation. In addition, parking is not a problem, as we can freely park along the road throughout the night, where we can find plenty of spots even late at night.
Now here are a few things that we didn't expect before staying here. The description says that there's no full kitchen, only a kitchenette, but for a long-term stay (for a month), we didn't expect a fridge that's as small as a dishwasher (by the way, there's no dishwasher, but this is okay), where the freezer is as small as a drawer. Basically the fridge is the size of one where you see in a hotel, not in an apartment. Also, since nature is just steps away, we saw (and tore down) much more spider nets than we anticipated. Both counts are not necessarily bad, but something to be aware of before you book here.
With that said, we still wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who'd like to stay close to nature but still enjoy the amenities of a modern home.
