🌲 A quieter side of Seattle, close to everything.
Victory Heights is a peaceful North Seattle neighborhood filled with mature trees, parks and residential streets, the kind of place where you can enjoy the city all day and come home to a little breathing room.
🚆 Getting around is easy. Northgate Link Light Rail is just 1 mile away, with quick connections to UW, downtown, stadiums and Sea-Tac Airport. I-5, RapidRide, shopping, groceries, coffee and restaurants are all nearby.
🏈 Coming for the game? Cheer on the UW Huskies at Husky Stadium, catch the Seahawks at Lumen Field or head to Climate Pledge Arena for Kraken hockey. Light Rail makes game day easy, so you can skip the traffic and expensive stadium parking.
🎶 In town for a concert, UW event or to visit one of Seattle’s major medical centers? You’ll be conveniently located without having to stay in the middle of the city.
🌿 Closer to home, enjoy neighborhood parks, walking trails and the natural beauty of the Thornton Creek watershed.
Seattle when you want it. A peaceful retreat when you don’t.
🔑 Easy, private self check-in. Your personalized smart-lock code and arrival instructions will be sent 24 hours before check-in. A backup key is also available on-site if needed.
🏡 You’ll have exclusive access to the entire upper-level home, including your private entrance, deck, BBQ and outdoor living space.
🌲 Step into the fully fenced backyard to enjoy Thornton Creek, the fire pit and our peaceful forest-bathing/yoga platform. These backyard and creekside areas are shared with guests staying in the lower home.
🚗 Complimentary on-site and street parking are available, along with overnight Level 1 EV charging.
Private home. Easy arrival. A little piece of the Pacific Northwest right outside your door.
🌲 A Creekside Retreat in Seattle
Some homes have a backyard. Ours has a creek.
Thornton Creek winds through the trees directly behind the property, creating a rare little pocket of nature in North Seattle. Start your morning with coffee by the water, watch for birds and wildlife, or simply enjoy the sound of the creek while still being minutes from the city.
When evening arrives, the string lights come on. Gather around the fire pit, BBQ on your private covered patio, or head down to the creek for a quiet end to the day.
It’s a little taste of the Pacific Northwest without leaving Seattle.
🏡 Designed to Feel Like Home
This private, single-level 3BR/1BA home sleeps up to 6 and is designed for guests who want more than just a place to sleep.
Settle into the living room with its warm wood accents, comfortable seating and 60" Smart TV. Put on a record, choose a movie from the DVD collection, pull out a board game, or request the PS4 for a night in.
🍳 A Kitchen You Can Actually Cook In
The fully equipped kitchen is stocked for real meals, whether you’re making breakfast before exploring Seattle or settling in for a longer stay.
A dedicated coffee and tea bar makes mornings easy, and the dining table seats six for meals, games and conversation.
🛏️ Three Bedrooms, Each With Its Own Personality
Three queen bedrooms each have a different nature-inspired design, along with the comforts that make a difference after a long day:
Premium memory foam hybrid mattresses, blackout curtains, Smart TVs, sound machines, charging stations and plenty of clothing storage.
One bedroom also includes a dedicated workspace, with office supplies and a second monitor available upon request.
🔥 Your Outdoor Escape
Your private covered patio and BBQ area gives you your own outdoor space for dining and relaxing.
Beyond it, the fully fenced shared backyard opens to Thornton Creek, a gas fire pit beneath the string lights and our forest platform for yoga, stretching or simply sitting among the trees.
✨ The Little Things Matter
The full bathroom includes a tub/shower combination, bright vanity, plush towels and toiletries.
You’ll also have fast WiFi, air conditioning, heating, portable fans and a full-size washer and dryer, making the home equally comfortable for a weekend or an extended stay.
And with no interior stairs, everything is conveniently located on one level.

The property was clean, inviting and even decorated for the season! The kitchen had everything we needed, and there were plenty of pillows and towels in each bedroom. The trail in the backyard was beautiful and exceeded our expectations!
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
We had an extended stay here for a work trip. Kathy was very helpful and responsive. The place has all the amenities you need. We also enjoyed the trail and creek behind the house for a quick hike after long work days. Overall we highly recommend this place
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
This property had an extremely well stocked kitchen. The firepit area was very appealing. Great place to stay. Very quiet neighborhood, but close to necessities.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2025
Nice place away from the city but still only 5 minutes away from Safeway. Loved the location and interior. The creek was nice to venture out to. Loved having kid friendly dishes/cups. One minor complaint would be the upstairs nose is very noticeable especially in the early mornings. I'm sure it was not intentional but probably just the way the home was built.
