Anya's house locates on the garage uphill and near Seward Park about 15min walk, can overlook the beautiful view of Washington lake and Rainer Mountain. I liked to stand on the balcony, breathe the fresh air and enjoy the views...always made me relax and happy. We also like to sit in the rocking chairs watching TV or chatting. We believe the experience would be even greater in summer because you can eat/drink outside on the balcony with the views and can swim in the lake within comfortable walking distance. One problem is the noise when garage door open/close in the morning/evening. Anya is very responsive and give us the warm welcome and detailed instruction. She always replied on time and helped to solve any of our problems. We spend good time there.
