Lakefront- fenced - no animal- allergies

Come to experience a luxurious stay on a beautiful lakefront home with own beach and dock. The lake
is fresh, clear, and clean with lots of fish for fishing activity on your own private dock. Swimming is also one of the favorite activities while staying at the house. A 3-person paddle boat is provided free-of-charge for your enjoyment. The house is within walking distant to a beautiful, green, and well maintained park with swimming area and large playground for the children.
You will find two bedrooms, a private bath with a spacious kitchen, complete with dining room and living room, both with the lake view. A
private laundry room with large size washer and dryer. Living room is
furnished with 2 configurable couches. Walk out your living room to a large deck to enjoy the fresh breeze and the view of the lake. Outdoor gas grill is provided for bbq and gather cooking. There is a fire pit on private beach
for a bonfire evening with friends, family, or business associates.
For leisure travelers, we are in the heart of the city with endless activities/attractions in or
nearby cities; i.e. golf, skiing, ice skating, water activities, mountain activities, city
activities, theme parks, etc... Or you could just sit in the deck or on the dock, reading books, and
enjoy the green beautiful view and the fresh breeze that the lake provides.
For business travelers, we are also very close to big corporations such as Weyerhaeuser, Boeing,
Alaska Air, etc.. Come and stay as a warm and cozy home away from home while attending businesses.
We are just fifteen minutes south from Sea-Tac airport, and 20 minutes from downtown Seattle or
downtown Tacoma. Close to numerous attractions, or secluded enough to just relax and enjoy the view
and activities on the awesome lake for a few days - especially the magnificent sunset. More
pictures will be sent upon request.
There are 2 exterior - outside the house - camera at the entrance door to the house. One point toward the parking area - inside the gate, and one point at platform in front of the door. There is no camera inside the house nor point toward inside the house. Shared dock, paddle boats, and kayak with next house’s Guests.

Our overall stay was great. The property was clean (except for the windows) and had everything we needed and is in a great location. The pictures are a bit deceiving, the outside of the property looks nothing like the pictures and could use quite a bit of updating. Kathy was very kind and responsive to all messages.

Spain, California and Arizona is where we 3 arrived from to visit our old stomping grounds. What a delightful stay we enjoyed on Steele Lake. This little hideaway is centrally located to all the beautiful people, places and things we had in mind. Wonderful Host as well. ⭐️ Beautiful views and grounds too🤩

We were so pleased how CLEAN the place was. The fragrance was a little too strong but we appreciated the cleanliness. The porch and dock could use some maintenance or replaced eventually but everything else was perfect

We picked this property because of the peaceful pictures. We had a stressful weekend ahead and were looking for a little retreat. The views didn't disappoint and the owner was a delight to work with. The property had a few issues but overall worked well for our needs.

The view was wonderful. Breakfast on the deck/time on the dock/use of paddleboat and kayak were great! The house was fully stocked w everything we needed. There is one portable AC unit which kept most of it cool, but was a bit hot in the bedrooms at night. Very helpful ghosts. cool

We had a great stay in Federal Way! The home is clean and simple. It was the perfect amount of space for our family of four. We were able to drive to all the national parks in Washington as well as enjoy sightseeing in the city.

We had a great time at the Steel Lake cottage. It was comfortable and Kathy was very attentive to our needs. It was a convenient location and only a short 30 min drive into Seattle. The playground across the lake was wonderful for our kids. Would stay there again.

I’ve been fortunate and have done a lot of traveling in the past 20 years. This is an amazing hideaway with lots of parking and easy access to shopping. Plus it’s absolutely as beautiful as the picture I couldn’t be happier. My host was wonderful and checked up on us to make sure things were good. Thank you, Kathy! I hope to stay again soon.

I was thrilled to find a location close to my sister’s house. It was a perfect size for the two of us. Making meals didn’t require buying extra of anything because it was so well stocked with ingredients (mustard, olive oil etc.). The view of the lake was just as pictured. This may be my home away for next year when I visit.

This is the second time that I have stayed in Kathy's properties. On both occasions, the communication was great and the propertiies were just as advertised. The property was clean, organized and there were ample supplies to cook (including spices and other food essentials). The stay was just what was needed and I appreciate the prompt response and communication. If you are interested in having a peaceful stay with great views, I highly recommend this property.

When you look for a place to unwind, clear your head and rejuvenate this is the exact place you need to be. The home can be used for both families and individual travellers with is perfect flexibility. Kathy was super friendly and always communicating to ensure I was comfortable during the entire stay. She is such a warm soul and a joy to be around. The place is clean and offers a lot of privacy for those seeking a getaway. There were also some outdoor activity options that one can indulge in. I have definitely found a gem that I can call home for many more visits to come. I would highly recommend it without doubt.
