Instead of a standard "review" I've decided to write how I spent just one of my days in the host's home to illustrate how perfect this place is:

On an unseasonably warm and dry Seattle October morning, I woke up next to my young son and found it hard to peel myself out of the ultra comfortable queen size bed. I snuck down the hardwood stairs of this craftsman home to find my wife cooking breakfast on the island range utilizing the provided cast iron cookware & plating my breakfast atop the granite counters in the gourmet kitchen. With a presentation like that I skipped sitting in the full dining room & sat at an island stool.
After breakfast my son was calling so I took him less than a 5 minute walk through the tree-lined neighborhood, to a local coffee shop. It was our 3rd day & the barista already knew my name & order which is a testament to how quaint this neighborhood is.
When arriving 'home' we walked up the flagstone walkway to be greeted by the eager recipient of the coffee. I pointed to the bottle of champagne thoughtfully gifted to us by the hosts & sitting on the coffee table stating "that's being used tonight"!
After a chuckle, I walked upstairs where I took a shower in the smartly tiled bathroom, I reached up and opened the skylight above my head & just enjoyed the contrasting cool breeze while I took that hot shower.
I then had a bit of work on my laptop to do so I made my way into the 2nd bedroom that offers itself as an office. After a quick "hi" to the fish on the desk (never caught his name) after work-
I gathered my son & walked half a block to a park that was magical, within minutes it seemed as if we were in the middle of the forest on some fun trails. I got back for a lunch with my wife and son at the Whole Foods market about 4 blocks from home.
Once back, I decided to go to the basement & catch up on some laundry using the modern front-loading machines.
During which, I played in the family room exploring all of the GREAT toys that our new friend left to share.
Finally, as evening began to approach, it was time for that quick 10 minute drive downtown to drop my son off to family.
I rushed back & met my wife for that glass of bubbly which we shared in the candlelit living room. We sat and listened to some soft music enjoying the leather sofa & the acoustics the home provides with the high-end surround sound.
My wife told me we were going to a quiet Italian restaurant that was just a block away. It was quaint & delicious. We had a short romantic stroll back and the evening ended as the day began...comfortable & perfect-

We will never forget this trip.
