Our family of five (three teenaged boys) found this house perfect for our week-long stay in Seattle. Between the two bedrooms upstairs, the foldout leather futon in the den and the couch in the living room, each son had his own place to sleep. It's a great area to stay, a very happening location. So many things to do very close by, from great restaurants (pizza, sushi, you name it -- you can walk to Bluebird Ice-cream, one of the best ice cream places in Seattle) to Univ. of Washington, the waterfront in Ballard (fish ladder, great night-time beach scene at Golden Gardens -- great tip, Tim! to beautiful views of the city just over the bridge in Queen Anne (Kerry Park -- we went there at night and during the day). It took us 15 minutes or less to get just about anywhere in the city, even West Seattle (kayaking) was a quick drive). And it's a great jumping off point for hiking in the cascades. Tim was very helpful with suggestions and insights (our boys wanted to go shopping for shoes, etc., and Tim had some great nearby ideas). We had a wonderful week and were very happy we picked your place to stay, Tim and Pam. Thanks for the hospitality!
