The title for this home certainly does not over sell itself. The view is dazzling. As soon as you walk in through the front door you can start to see it. And from the deck and lounge it is just great. We loved it.

The house is very well equipped - particularly the kitchen. We cooked a lot and although small had everything we needed. All the herbs and spices were a great addition!

The house layout would ideally suit a couple. We were four adults and as long as one couple is happy to use a Murphy bed in the lounge (we were) then it works too. The downside is that only one couple gets the amazing bathroom connected to the main bedroom - views from the bath!

Although we never met Carter he was a great host. He was extremely responsive and gave us a ton of information about the house so we knew exactly what to expect. There is a lot of information about the house and about the local area in the house as well.

The house is situated in a quiet residential area above Lincoln Park and the ferry terminal. It is perfect if you are exploring Seattle as we were. We even left Seattle on the ferry we'd been watching cross Pujet Sound for three days :)

There is nothing to add other than to say this was exactly what I wanted from this first part of a North West road trip.
