It was very nice for my girlfriend Kate and I to stay with Yvonne and Ralph. She kept in touch with us our whole way up from Portland and Seattle, and helped us coordinate our arrival via public transit, which was very helpful since we had been travelling for the past few days. When we arrived, it was close to a tree house paradise with big windows overlooking her garden and foilage. The place was set up very cozily and we felt right at home. Yvonne and Ralph were very accommodating to both of our needs, when we asked if there was firewood, they jumped up and grabbed some for us and even set up the fire for us so we didn't have to bother, which led us to a cozy and romantic evening. Ralph appears to be a master craftsman (he built an awesome fence in a day) and fire builder. The place also has a full kitchen with just about all you need to cook (and drinks to boot!), and we enjoyed a delicious meal with items we purchased from the Pike Place market. Would definitely stay here again, as it really made us feel like we lived in Seattle, at least for a couple days. Their two dogs were also very friendly.
