When the Sun Shines, this place soaks it up! It's sunny here far more often than many places in Western Washington.
- THIS IS A 2 STORY HOUSE
- The whole house is divided into TWO SEPARATE UNITS
- NO STAIRS INSIDE TO CONNECT UPSTAIRS AND DOWNSTAIRS
- NOT THE SAFEST ARRANGEMENT FOR PARENTS UPSTAIRS WITH CHILDREN DOWNSTAIRS
- Each separate unit can be booked individually, but we don't (usually) book both at the same time for a lower price due to arguments about which unit was making the most noise that disturbed the other unit.
- Can Sleep 12 People
- Standard Beds for 10 People
- Floor mattresses for 4 More People
- It will be tight if you max out the number of guests
- 2 Regular Sized Bedrooms (queen beds)
- One good sized Bunk room with 3 twin beds (bunk bed plus single twin)
- Access to good sized Bunk room through bathroom or door to outside
- 1 Tiny Bedroom with 3 twin beds (bunk bed plus single twin)
- Access to Tiny Bedroom is through the shower/bath room...there is a door for privacy, but you will have to negotiate access to the room with the person who may be taking a shower.
- Lots of large screen ROKU TVs. NO CABLE TV.
- FAST RELIABLE INTERNET
- THERE IS NO TV IN THE LIVING ROOM UPSTAIRS, it would take away from the views, but each bedroom has large ROKU TVs.
We have 2 Queen Size Mattresses to lay on the floor. We also have a fold out bed frame for a queen mattress, but we found nobody used it, they just put the mattresses on the floor.
ALL BEDS ARE VERY COMFORTABLE according to reports by MOST people but not all.
- Upstairs shower has double shower heads!!!
- Downstairs shower is nice too, plenty of water pressure.
- Unlimited hot water.
- Two Kitchens - BOTH ARE VERY WELL STOCKED for cooking and essentials like ORGANIC COFFEE!
- Gas Stove and Electric Oven Upstairs
- 2 Induction Cook Tops Downstairs
- Microwave ovens in both units
- Main heating is by a gas fireplace in upstairs and downstairs. They warm the units quickly.
- Electric Wall Mounted Heaters Upstairs
- Portable Electric Oil Heaters Downstairs
Guest Access:
The entire house is exclusively yours including the upper deck.
Shared Space - There is a grassy lawn and patio between the building and cliff side fence for shared enjoyment by your hosts and other guests which may also be staying on the property.
Other Things to Note:
**** Important **************
Kids must be watched and well behaved, because...
- Cliff side property
- Fast but moderate traffic road outside the driveway
- Deck & Stairs
ROAD NOISE: We do have some road noise. MOST guests barely notice it. SOME guests do have issues with it. If you are highly sensitive to noise or can't stop focusing on it, then this is not the place for you. We rarely notice it. It is the worst when standing outside in the drive way and trying to have a conversation. But inside of the units, out back enjoying the amazing views, which is where most people spend most of their time, most people don't even notice it. It is barely audible.
YOU WILL HEAR SOUNDS FROM THE OTHER UNIT: Downstairs you will hear upstairs people walking and scraping sounds of furniture when it is moved. Upstairs you will hear voices from downstairs.
Interaction with Guests:
- We are available by phone and in person onsite.
- We will send you our business text number for most non-urgent questions and issues.
- We will send you our individual private number for urgent emergency usage.
