I am not a stranger to Carter's house - this is my second ( hopefully not the last) visit. I am in love with the place . It is simply perfect for a family vacation in Seattle. Has everything you need plus absolutely gorgeous view, love dinners on the deck with stunning sunset show over the Pudget sound in the background. And you cannot have a better host than Carter. If you are looking for a peaceful, comfortable, relaxing place to stay in Seattle - you have found it!
