Another great visit

We come to Seattle to visit our grandchildren (and son and daughter-in-law). We try to stay at Pied-à-terre by the Lake whenever it's available. Bruce and Paula are the greatest and we really enjoy the room, especially the view of Lake Washington.

Can’t say enough about this property, the hosts and the view from the deck! Exceptionally well maintained private apartment and hosts who go out of their way to make the experience homey and comfortable. Fresh eggs and vegetables out of the garden just outside the apartment were a great surprise too! All the amenities, including driveway parking exceeded our expectations and we will be back!

Wonderful Property

Lovely space for a short term or long term stay. All of the necessary amenities were included for a very comfortable stay. There was a beautiful view of Lake Washington from the property. The hosts were some of the kindest and sweetest people that I have ever met and I now consider them to be very good friends. I hope that I will be able to enjoy another stay with them in the future.

A wonderful place to stay in a fantastic location. Bruce and Paula are truly amazing hosts and we could not have been happier with our stay. When we visit family in Seattle we will always look to return to this gem.

we were blessed to have John and Marcee as guests for the summer. They were delightful visitors and we enjoyed several evenings with them on the roof-top deck watching the world go by. Any owner would be lucky to have them as guests! We are hoping to have them in the future. Thank you!
