This was the first Airbnb experience for me and I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to book a great place to stay. This year I volunteered as patrol skipper for Seafair, which also was a first. Thomas's apartment is literally a 10 minute walk right to the pits at Genessee Park. For those not familiar with Seattle, Seafair is a 10 week festival with races and lots of stuff to do. It was super hot this year and it was such a pleasure to have the family come home to a clean, wonderfully appointed and air conditioned apartment. The house is newly renovated with a wonderful garden and sits majestically on a hill overlooking Lake Washington. Plenty of parking to my utter amazement as a Seattle resident. There is easy walking access to swim or boat on the lake or just hang out near the water. Plenty of nice places to walk to right from the house, including Seward Park which still has old growth trees. Tons of restaurants and easy access to downtown Seattle. This home will give a very distinctive Northwest experience.
