'Check in was a breeze and AC was on and chilled off for us. Host is a delight and easy to communicate with. The house is properly stocked and very clean. We had everything we needed for our stay and any questions we had were responded to in a very efficient manner. We would 10/10 stay here again.'

'We absolutely loved this place. The views were amazing. We were very lucky and saw Orcas swim by. The host was very responsive. We will be back for sure! '

'Everything was perfect, from the quaintness of the cabin to the communication with the host! It was exactly as described, and we came prepared! The only thing that didn’t go as planned was the hot plate, we couldn’t get our water to boil for some mac&cheese, but we had a backup! Our puppies loved paddling around in the water, and the scenery was to die for!'

' A lot of thought and TLC is placed into the cabin and property to make it an enjoyable experience. We appreciated the use of the kayaks as we were unable to bring our paddle boards on the trip. We did rent a peddle boat across the lake for a few hours which was nice and convenient. We celebrated our son’s 24th birthday and our daughter going to college in Kirkland. It was a perfect 3 day getaway and our kids had a blast on the rope swing plunging into the lake over and over again. ...

'Quiet, peaceful, relaxing, just what we needed.'

'We stayed in this cute yurt during a super stressful move out of state. The host was very accommodating and responded quickly to any questions we had. Parking was spacious and it was nice to be in a residential neighborhood with quick access to the airport. Would stay here again!'

'Couldn’t ask for anything more….well maybe a bit more comfortable patio seating! Amenities weee all fabulous! Appreciated the water toys!!!!'

'Beautiful house, with everything there you need to enjoy the water and the view. Plenty of kitchen things for cooking, games, birds to watch--truly a great place. '

'We love the Koi Story Cabin. We were there for the Cyclone Bomb this year. No electricity for 4 days. The staff was amazing! They had us hooked up to a generator and the fire place kept us warm! We communicated with Elena, Ian and Sergei. They were so helpful and worked with our schedule. A delightful place to stay!'

'Our family had the best time at this cabin! It was adorable and had everything needed to cook and make meals for a big crowd. We hung outside most of the time. The outdoor space is the perfect place to eat and play games together. Enjoyed picking blackberries, watching the wildlife, making smores at the fire pit, and playing outdoor games. We took our paddleboards a two minute drive away…just perfect!'

'Very comfy and amazing view… I would stay again'

'My visit to this property with my husband was everything we were looking for. A clean, cozy cabin right on the water and we woke to the sound of tide coming in. The host '
