Comfortable Stay in Issaquah

My husband & I were in town for a wedding that included pre and post wedding activities. We stayed 4 nights & we loved the location in a quiet neighborhood. Bill & Bo are gracious hosts and I would recommend this Vrbo to anyone who wants to stay in the Issaquah area. Of note, the apartment does not include a living room or TV (but the free WiFi is excellent). I would definitely stay here again. Cindy

Serene

We were looking for a quiet get away to explore the PNW and see the national/state parks. We had a great time, and had wild life on the property throughout the stay. Located equidistant to all of the parks but enough outside the city to stay peaceful, quiet, but still walkable.

Cute no frills 2 bedroom apartment.

The size of the 2 bedroom was perfect for the two of us. I didn’t realize we didn’t have a tv or couch, but it did not state in the description that they had one. I also didn’t realize that there were other people renting space at the house as well. It was kind of strange being outside on the deck with them. I was told we could check-in at 2 the day before. I text for the code a little after 2 and 20 minutes later I receive the code but when I show up Bill’s wife didn’t know I was coming early and was still cleaning. The day we were leaving I was called to see what time we were leaving, checkout is at 11:30, this was at 10:30. We felt rushed to leave. In the midst of our hurry, a bottle of red wine spilled on the sheets, not the mattress, so I put them in the wash. I was then sent a text about the state of the sheets, found that to be a little off putting. The yard was great, nature was beautiful. I felt a little uncomfortable.
