Laura's place is lovely, peaceful and convenient to Greenlake, Ballard, Carkeek Park and not too far from downtown Seattle. Plenty of gourmet coffee/tea and homemade granola were nice extra touches. I stayed the first week of June and some trees or bushes were flowering, pink and red, and I could see the flowers from the upper windows in the bedroom and bathroom—just gorgeous. Will stay here again when visiting my friends in Ballard!
