A lovely spot in the state capital
My wife, son, and I really enjoyed our time here. We spent 4 nights here in July 2024, using it as a central location for visiting Olympic NP and Mt St Helens. The house is beautiful, the rooms comfortable, and the neighborhood just lovely. My wife especially appreciated the historic nature of a craftsman style house from the early 1900s. Was pleasantly surprised by just how many amenities were in the house. Lots of little extras that we didn't have to buy on our own. Highly recommended.

Great place to stay!!!
Loved the location. The place is beautiful, quiet, and cozy. Had everything we needed. Very clean. Perfect for our family. Was within walking distance to the Capitol and the lake so the kids could get their zoomies out. Backyard was great for that purpose too. Hosts were very communicative and helpful. Would absolutely stay here again.

A pleasant house in a great location
We had a nice weekend stay at this historic house. All appliances and conveniences have been updated with the latest, and we felt comfortable and at home there. Parking is a bit tight in the alley, but our Subaru Outback fit fine. The location is in walking distance to the Capitol building and many downtown locations.

Comfortable home in quiet neighborhood
House was warm, clean and comfortable. Using a code to get in and out made it easy to check in. Neighborhood is quiet with friendly neighbors. Consider only bringing one car since street parking on weekdays is limited to 2 hours. We loved the house and would definitely stay again.
