Had a great stay in Seattle at the Courtland address. Neighborhood was friendly and the yard gave us agility to sit outside together. Kitchen was nicely appointed and grocery stores were plentiful. Place was clean and quiet. We played catch in the yard and on the street when my boys wanted to cut loose.

Well appointed, clean and comfortable

This was a business trip and in lieu of staying in a hotel I wanted something more private that had laundry and place that I could cook my own meals for the week. This home was clean bright and fresh and I highly recommend. I will definitely be staying there again on my next business trip into Seattle.

Great home base

We really enjoyed this small, quiet home. It had lots of character and was a perfect home base for our touring. It was close to major roads and easy to get to attractions. The house and neighborhood were nice and quiet, allowing us to sleep well and recharge between events. The beds were comfortable (no dips!) with great pillows. The property manager was very welcoming and responded promptly to questions and offered great support.

Great Stay in Josie’s Guesthouse

We booked this house to celebrate our son’s graduation from the University of Washington. It was a great home base for the weekend’s festivities. The close proximity to the Shoreline Light Link rail station made it super convenient to get to Husky Stadium. The house is cute and clean. It had everything we needed for a great stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again or recommend to others.

Family Getaway

Perfect house for our family of 4 and yellow Lab. The house was very clean and well decorated with plenty of seating and comfortable beds. We were close enough to the city where we caught a ball game at T-Mobile park. We’ll definitely be back.

Wonderful cozy home

Home is clean and has everything you would need for short and long term stays. The house was exactly as described and in a quiet/friendly neighborhood. Many neighbors are out walking dogs morning and night. We loved that both back and front yard is fenced and plenty of parking. Joyce was a wonderful host and very responsive. Thank you for letting us stay in your home!

Very comfortable stay

We were delighted by this home, it lived up to its description. The home felt like someone’s actual home with thoughtful furniture, items and linens, not just a rental. We were extremely relieved and comfortable in this home and would gladly rent it again. Yard is great for dogs, fully fenced in, neighborhood is quiet but very convenient.

About the host

Hosted by Joyce Juntunen

This guest house was purchased with hospitality in mind and inspired by our dear pup, Josie, who was a friend to all she met. For those of you who are new to Seattle, you are in for a treat. I moved here in 1996 and fell in love with the city and surrounding area with its mild temperatures and proximity to water, mountains and rainforest. My husband grew up in the area and has lived here all his life. We have wonderful parks, hikes, winter sports, restaurants and wine just minutes away plus Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders, Storm, Reign and now the Kraken (their practice facility is in the neighborhood). Just don’t ask about the Super Sonics!

Why they chose this property

I love the Haller Lake neighborhood because it is very residential - mostly single family homes so it's quiet. It's close to light rail, UW Medical Center - Northwest, Northgate and tons of shopping. There is also Haller Lake itself which is a very close place to swim, paddleboard or float in the warm months.

What makes this property unique

We love this little house with it's big fenced yard! We are continually improving it and adding more creature comforts but all of our furnishings are less than 2 years old. We added brand-new Molecule mattresses, Brooklinen sheets, towels and bedding and Caraway cookware. If you plan on cooking, there is a fully stocked kitchen with every appliance and utensil you could possibly need! Since we are dog lovers, we made the house pet-friendly and have provided a dog bed, food bowls and a toy or two. And, of course, we love to host so if you need something, just ask!
