Mike’s house was PERFECT! The location, the views, the precious bulldogs- all of it! My friend and I were in town for a half marathon up in North Bend. We had only booked our hotel for the race and decided to wing it from there and I’m so glad we did. While in Mt. Rainier area, I came across Mike’s listing. We wanted the hot tub for our legs! The price was less than the hotel we had been staying at and the drive to Sea-Tac was ~20 mins which was ideal for our 5am flight home. Wasn’t sure what to expect during our drive in, as we passed all the ports… then we headed up the steep drive to this beautiful, jungle like oasis in the trees. If you don’t mind a short walk, you literally won’t use your car during your stay. The ferry to downtown Seattle is about a 10 min walk away. $6 each way and a very short ride! There are restaurants right there along the beach next to the dock too! Or if you keep on walking, you hit the beach! On top of the most amazing location, Mike was fabulous! He is super responsive, will give great recommendations and didn’t kick me out when I told him I was going to figure out how to take his dogs home! Will definitely try and stay here anytime i’m in Seattle from now on!
