The house is exactly as advertised. It is well maintained and is well equipped for people who plan to use the kitchen, and has other amenities as well. We enjoyed sitting outside on the deck. The hosts were very friendly and solicitous of our experience. It is also located near downtown Olympia and retail outlets. We would stay there again!

We had an unexpected situation when a tree fell on our house, and we needed a temporary place to stay while repairs were underway. This beautiful home was the perfect refuge during a stressful time. From the moment we arrived, we felt at ease — the house is tastefully and thoughtfully decorated, with cozy touches throughout and very comfortable furniture that made it feel like home.The location is fantastic — just minutes from shopping, restaurants, parks, and everything downtown Olympia has to offer. It was so convenient and made daily life easy and enjoyable.Jordan and Jennifer were incredibly kind and attentive throughout our stay. Their communication was excellent, and they went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and supported. When we mentioned that the grill needed a little cleaning, Jordan had a grill brush and cleaning supplies at our doorstep the same day — and even offered to clean it himself. That level of care really stood out.The house is also perfect for families and pets. Our energetic little dog loved running around the fully enclosed backyard, and we spent a lot of time enjoying the peaceful garden — such a lovely, serene space.Overall, this was a wonderful experience. We’re so grateful to have found this home and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, welcoming place to stay in Olympia.

We really enjoyed this lovely home near the Capital HS in Olympia. It was clean, very nicely furnished with anything we could need. Loved the kitchen with a beautiful view of the back yard. Owner checked with us frequently with how were doing and if we needed anything.

Comfortable family stay
Great neighborhood and close to anything you’d need. The beds were very comfy and it was great for our family. The only thing was our allergies kicked up a little due to probably some pet dander as we don’t have any pets but other than that it was great.

Beautiful home close to everything
We were pleasantly surprised by this little beauty in a quiet neighborhood in West Olympia, yet close to everything we needed. The house is spacious, well decorated, immaculate, the kitchen light and airy. The Master bed was SO soft and comfortable. I would be reluctant to bring bouncy little kids because everything is so nice, but there is plenty of space and multiple sleeping areas for larger groups. It was a lovely place to stay and I wouldn't hesitate to return. This is a win-win!
