While this cottage location would be breathtaking during the summer given its garden location, we found it to be equally charming in the winter. We were warm and comfortable during our stay and enjoyed the many "curiosities" used to furnish the room. The kitchenette was an added bonus and we appreciated the many amenities supplied. The location can't be beat. Easy walking distance to downtown Fremont, Ballard & Phinney Ridge, and close to terrific restaurants and shopping. Close to public transportation. Nan was a gracious host who respected our desire for privacy. She also made check in/out very easy for us. The cottage shares garden space with Delphine, the largest pet rabbit we've ever had the pleasure of being introduced to.
