Darcy is an amazing, accommodating host and her house is exceptional and awesome in almost every respect. Darcy was a clear communicator prior to check in and let us move our check out time. She greeted me at the house for a walk through, explained everything in detail and gave us a bottle of wine. She was nearby for the weekend and provided several contacts in case of emergency, but gave us space and let us have some extra company over for a small gathering.
The house is really a gem. The pictures are great, but don't do it justice. It it covered in really amazing 1900s-1920s decor, furnishings and memorabilia, and each room has a unique, quirky character that was always both relaxing and fun to explore. The beds and couches are extremely comfortable and the kitchen is gorgeous and includes everything you would ever need for cooking some world class meals. It is big enough to host a good size group while everyone feels like they have their own space. Darcy lives there, which is normally a bit of a red flag for me when getting an Air BNB, but her obvious love for the house and its museum-like quality made it totally worth it.
BUT the best feature, particularly for our hot summer trip, was the absolutely gorgeous yard. I am a Seattle-area resident and have spent lots of time in area yards and gardens. Hers is one of the best I've seen. There is a giant, beautiful Weeping Willow in the center of a large, well-decorated, extremely well maintained garden. The garden has low walls and lots of privacy. The seating, tables and statuary are amazing. It was the perfect place for hosting and we all loved it. I really look forward to coming back and lounging around there some more.
In short, wonderful place! People should go enjoy Darcy's home and hospitality.
