About this condo rental

Located in Seattle, this charming condo for $170 per night is a great option for your next vacation. You will be delighted as you descend from street level in a quiet family neighborhood to your garden-level suite opening onto a mature wooded greenbelt along the popular Burke-Gilman trail. You will open your private entrance to find a lovely, roomy apartment, providing two comfortable bedrooms. You'll have to decide whether to sink into the comfortable sofa to enjoy the big screen TV with cable, cozy up before the floor to ceiling windows to drink in the serene view of trees, birds and Lake Washington in the distance, or cook a gourmet meal in the well-equipped kitchen. Your guests will relax and chat at the bar while you create, then you can share your bounty at the dining table. You may choose to barbecue outdoors and dine al fresco on your private deck, patio or around the crackling fire-pit. The first bedroom has a king size bed, huge closet and wall-mounted TV. The second bedroom has an inviting queen size bed, convenient storage and a large window looking out on the wooded garden. This bedroom adjoins the full bathroom with tub and shower, separate vanity with plenty of storage. You have your own laundry room, complete with front loader, high efficiency washer and dryer. Your suite will always be comfortable, with natural gas heat and central air conditioning. You will enjoy the gas fireplace in the living room. You and your family will always feel safe with your own security system. Your guest suite is your home away from home, secluded-feeling but minutes away from all the amenities and activities you could want. You have your own covered parking spot steps from the stairway that takes you down three levels to your urban oasis. You will find easy street parking in the uncrowded neighborhood. You are steps away from public transportation, taking the Metro bus to the University District, Seattle Center, Northgate, Ballard or downtown in minutes. The bus will also take you to the University Station for light rail to downtown, the sports stadium area and Sea-Tac airport. You can hop on the Burke-Gilman trail for a walk, run or bike trip to Magnuson Park, University Village, the University of Washington campus, or points beyond. Special note: We have recently completed the second unit in our home for rental, now available! Please check out VRBO #3930539, https://www.vrbo.com/3930539, if you need space for more guests.

We had the most wonderful stay, and Ron is the most gracious host. The property is absolutely spotless. Everything is updated, and the kitchen is fully stocked. In fact, we had our Thanksgiving dinner there and had everything we needed. There are so many wonderful extra touches, like coffee, condiments, extra treats, just so many great extra little touches. The beds are extremely comfortable. One thing I loved was how comfortable and inviting the living room area was. The outdoor area is just beautiful, with a grill and a wonderful fire pit. The view from the living room area is calming and beautiful, with a view of trees. The location couldn’t be more perfect for us, as we were visiting with our UW student, and it’s a six minute drive from the University district, yet you feel like your miles away in the woods. We hope to make this our new Seattle tradition, and plan to book this property for all future stays. And a huge thank you to Ron, who is such a wonderful host!

Could not have been better. Clean, well-equipped, great communication. If you like to exercise, one of the best trails in the area is literally in the backyard. Nice neighborhood and very close to UW, UW Hospital and Seattle Children's Hospital. 5 stars.

We were greeted by our host immediately upon arrival, in spite of the fact that it was late evening. Once we introduced ourselves, the host provided a succinct overview of the premises and its features, along with helpful instructions on using the fire pit and barbecue. The setting of this home is at once serene, as well as inviting. The home is meticulously maintained, the environment is so peaceful inside and out. The beds are exceedingly comfortable…. We just don’t have one complaint, with the sole exception that our stay came to a tranquil end. We certainly intend a return trip to stay at this locale.

We loved staying at Ron’s condo for a week. It had everything we needed with a great floor plan. Felt very private but close to everything in NE Seattle- UW, Children’s Hospital, University Village, lots of parks and great neighborhood restaurants. The back yard area was an extra bonus and we had enough nice weather to enjoy the grill and firepit a few times. You can tell the owner really cares for his property and his guests. Truly a perfect experience and I will definitely stay here again when I’m in town.

Definitely the cleanest rental we’ve ever experienced. Located in a quiet, safe neighborhood that’s backed up to a trail. Very close in proximity to Husky Stadium. Unit is on the ground floor of a three story, top floor is street level so there are steps to go down. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Aloha!

My husband and I have stayed in many VRBO properties around the country (and world), and this one was by far the most enjoyable. The apartment itself was comfortably and thoughtfully furnished, with tons of unexpected amenities (a lavish supply of coffees, a basket of Seattle specialty chocolates, a complete apothecary in the bathroom). But the best part is the tranquil back yard, which borders on Seattle's famous Burke-Gilman trail. This outdoor space has a small dining table on the deck (perfect for breakfast), a larger dining table on the spacious patio (perfect for barbeque dinners), and a fire pit (perfect for after-dinner relaxing). The host is more than accommodating and it's great that he lives upstairs, ready to be helpful on matters large and small. Overall, this well-named property definitely earns a five-star rating.
