Tired of urban life? Come live at this humble cabin at the foot of Lake Washington. Only 15 min from downtown Seattle, this retreat has all kinds of natural wonders. A creek runs through the front yard, filled with turtles, crayfish, ducks, herons, and river otters. A public park sits right outside the front door where you can lounge, play basketball, or frolic in the lake. There is easy access to the Burke Gilman bike path, as well as a brewery and gym 5 min away at Magnusson park. This is the kind of place for someone who loves nature and wants to integrate it more into their life. There is a wood-burning stove for cozy fires in the winter, as well an outdoor mobile fire pit for gatherings in the summer time. There's a hidden projector screen stored behind a beam in the dining area that pulls down to be a 120 inch television. It's like a little cabin cinema. We wake up every day happy here and are sure you will too!
