Sam is an excellent host, and his Sunset Hill place is genuinely charming, relaxing, and fun. Sam was a great communicator: proactive, responsive, and gracious. The pictures and description do not do it justice. I could spend all day in the beautiful backyard, admiring the flowers and fruit trees, or gazing up at the stars from the perfectly worn-in bench. From coffee in the morning to grilling dinner outside at dusk, Sam's place gave this city girl a wonderful place to decompress and hear the wind rustle through the trees.
Sam left easy-to-follow house instructions that covered the details you don't think about until you're in a new place. His home is eclectic, welcoming, and warm. And if you're a music lover, you'll find a great selection of records and a piano. The beds are comfy, airflow is breezy and cool - despite the 80-degree temps - and the master shower has incredible water pressure that melts your stress away. The kitchen is also well equipped for cooks and coffee lovers. (Everything in the kitchen was easy to find. Bonus: the kitchen lighting gave everything a soft, relaxing glow).
It's truly a gem in Sunset Hill -- just a few steps away from gorgeous sunsets overlooking the Puget Sound. Sam has put so many thoughtful details in the home, I feel honored I could stay here.
Book it. You will be so glad you did. I can't wait to return for another weekend.
