Loved the area this was in! Was beautiful and quiet, a huge park and yummy restaurants within walking distance. Carmen was kind and responsive, and the listing was accurate.
Beautiful apartment tucked in the woods. Loved it.

About the host
Hosted by Carmen Forsman
I was born in Mexico, but have lived in Seattle for over 20 years. When my sons grew up and left the house, I decided to rent part of it through Vrbo. I have two dogs, Chester and Gus, and live upstairs with them and my partner. We love to take walks in the Arboretum, that is across the street, and we love to cook.
Why they chose this property
The neighborhood is close to main transportation lines to downtown and the University district. We are also close to Madison Street (4 blocks) with its restaurants and shops. The best thing about my neighborhood, however, is the Arboretum, a huge beautiful park with miles of trails and gardens.
What makes this property unique
It opens out onto the garden. It's very private and the bed is really comfortable.
