Mike's place was the perfect find for our family. Charming, simple, uncluttered, and quiet. It had everything we needed after a week sailing in the San Juans - comfy beds, hot shower, jacuzzi tub (!), washer/dryer, access to the little beach a short walk away, and friendly, safe, neighborhood feel. As cat people, we especially enjoyed being greeted in the backyard by Blue Paw and Mowgli, Mike's friendly cats. We had a lovely dinner at Ristorante Picolinos http://ristorantepicolinos.com/ where the host offered us an outside, socially distant table on the sidewalk (though we can't wait to come back after COVID to enjoy the back patio!). Amazing food, friendly staff, and strolling accordion player made for a special night. If you're looking for a place close to the heart of Seattle, but with none of the noise and a laid back, beach hood vibe, consider staying at Mike's place. I hope we'll be back!
