Creekside retreat w/ fire pit & forest yard - Seattle

Welcome to a peaceful creekside retreat designed for connection, comfort, and easy group stays. Tucked among trees and spread across two connected units, this home offers space to gather and room to unwind:

Sleeps 12 | 5 bedrooms | 6 beds | 2 baths
Two connected units with full kitchens
Fire pit, BBQ & outdoor dining area
Indoor fireplace, TVs & cozy living spaces
Family-ready w/ crib, high chair & games
Pet-friendly & fully fenced yard
Morning arrives softly here, with winter light filtering through the trees and the steady sound of the creek just beyond the yard. You sip coffee indoors while the fireplace hums nearby, watching steam rise from mugs as the forest settles into the quiet rhythm of the season. Evenings invite slower moments - gathered beneath string lights by the fire pit or curled up inside with a record spinning and a movie queued.

The home is set across two connected units, reserved entirely for your stay, and thoughtfully arranged for groups who want both togetherness and room to spread out. With space for up to 12 guests, it’s well suited for families, multi-generational trips, or friends traveling together.

Sleeping arrangements
Five bedrooms are distributed across both units, paired with a queen sofa sleeper in a shared living area. Each bedroom offers a comfortable bed, storage, and calming touches, while the sofa sleeper is prepared with extra linens and pillows. The layout allows guests to retreat privately at night and reconnect easily during the day.

Kitchen & dining
Both units include a full kitchen, making shared meals and flexible schedules easy. Whether you’re cooking together or enjoying takeout after a day exploring Seattle, the kitchens and dining areas support relaxed, communal dining without crowding.

Living areas
Upstairs, a welcoming living room centers around an indoor fireplace, with seating for conversation and streaming entertainment. Downstairs, a second living space features a large smart TV, record player, books, games, and DVDs - ideal for low-key nights in when the weather turns cool.

Bathrooms
Two bathrooms serve the home, each with a shower/tub combo and bathroom essentials provided. Everything is designed to keep mornings running smoothly, even with a full house.

Outdoor space
The fully fenced yard remains a highlight year-round. In winter, the fire pit becomes the natural gathering point, with string lights adding warmth as the sun sets early. A dedicated platform tucked among the trees is set aside for yoga or forest bathing, offering a quiet place to stretch and breathe even in cooler weather.

Comfort, families & extras
The home includes air conditioning, heating, portable fans, laundry, and room-darkening shades. Families will find a crib, Pack ’n Play, high chair, baby bath, children’s books and toys, safety gates, and a baby monitor. Entertainment options range from exercise equipment to board games and reading material. The property is pet-friendly, with a private entrance, free on-site and street parking, and self check-in via smart lock.

Safety & peace of mind
Exterior security cameras are installed at the front entrance and parking areas. Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, a fire extinguisher, and a first aid kit are provided.
