Wow! What a beautiful home and gorgeous neighborhood!

We weren't able to meet Karen, due to a business trip, but she had a team of family members lined-up to host and answer any questions we had. Additionally, her communication was very clear about the changes and she provided phone numbers for each person on the "team" in case we needed to get in touch.

The suite itself is gorgeous, very comfortable and private and immaculately clean. The bed was extremely comfortable!! Everything that we may have needed was provided (including wine glasses) and the breakfast of granola, coffee, fresh juicy peaches, and the most amazing greek yoghurt I've ever had was wonderful and greatly appreciated!

We took the opportunity to explore Madrona a bit and was delighted with its charm. We enjoyed a walk to Madrona centre for an amazing dinner at St. Cloud's, were treated to an impromptu African percussion concert in Madrona playground, walked down to Lake Washington, through Madrona Park, which was lovely, and enjoyed looking at the spectacular and unique homes in the neighborhood. On the way back, we stopped for decadent ice cream at Molly Moon's. A lovely evening.

A few other things that we really appreciated was the information about Seattle and some of the neighborhoods that Karen emailed us; this helped us get a feel for some of the things that we wanted to explore and we were able to access the information on our phones while we were out and about. We loved the personalized entry code, which made it easy to come and go. And also, the information basket and books about Seattle in the suite were very helpful as well.

We loved our stay! Thanks Karen (and Dan)!
