About this property

Quiet One-Bedroom Cottage with Deck in Walkable Neighborhood

Get to know a real Seattle neighborhood with coffee shops, boutiques, restaurants, Green Lake and Woodland Park Zoo, all within walking distance, and a short drive or bus ride to downtown and Seattle Center. The Phinney Guest Cottage can accommodate 2 adults and a child (infant/toddler gear available upon request: PacknPlays in travel or regular sizes, high chair, etc.). Additional twin air mattress is available for an older child.

This stand-alone house is decorated with a charming blend of antiques and contemporary furniture, and thoughtfully appointed. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a stackable washer/dryer. Relax in the cozy living room and stay in touch with free Wi-Fi. Enjoy a glass of wine in the evening on the sunny enclosed deck.

Phinney Ridge is a truly walkable neighborhood: no need for a car since you can walk everywhere and take the bus downtown (and avoid parking hassles!). The bus stop is a few steps away, and schedules and details are all provided for you. Restaurants close-by include Mediterranean, Thai, American, Greek, vegetarian, Mexican and the best burgers and onion rings in Seattle at Red Mill. Because this is Seattle, there are six excellent coffee shops within just a few blocks, including our favorite half a block away. May through September, the farmers' market on Friday afternoons is a great place to find delicious local produce.

Seattle is a spectacular city, and we hope you enjoy your visit!

Lovely cottage

We enjoyed our six nights at Linda's sweet cottage. It was spotlessly clean, very quiet and comfortable, with everything we needed for our stay. We would definitely recommend her place to others and hope to return here on our next visit to Greenwood!

Cute cottage in great location

Nothing fancy, but clean, comfortable and functional. Good privacy - a separate unit in back of the owner’s house. Walkable or a short drive to lots of restaurants and shops.

Nice place with some minor issues

The host is very nice. The place was clean and the neighborhood seemed very nice. When we arrive the host told us the toilet was making noises and parts were on order but that it would not be fixed during our stay. The refrigerator is an older unit and was a bit loud. Parking is on street parking and at times we had to park a full block away which was a bit of an inconvenience, especially with the Seattle weather

Cozy & Clean

The perfect spot for me. I was visiting family in the Ballard area which was very close by. The space was inviting, clean and very comfortable. I enjoyed having the extra fans and also having the extra lighting for security during late night entry. I would definitely stay here again!

Charming cottage

We booked Linda's guest house while in Seattle for a family wedding. We spent the majority of our time away with the fam, but while in the cottage we thoroughly enjoyed it! Very clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. The bed is comfortable, pillows too, with extra blankets and pillows available. Nice little living area with TV, plus a full mini kitchen and a bathroom with body wash, shampoo, conditioner provided. Plenty of towels too. Walkable neighborhood to restaurants and even the grocery store is not too far a walk. The place was lovely and we would stay there again.

Private cottage in charming neighborhood

Cottage is immaculate and thoughtfully furnished, located in an excellent neighborhood for walking with restaurants, groceries, coffee, post office and beautiful branch of Seattle Public Library all within an easy walk. We happened to meet the host, a very active person, as she was coming and going, and she was very kind. We mostly stayed in, cooked alot, enjoyed the deck/spacious patio when it was fair, and enjoyed exploring the neighborhood.
