"Needed a comfortable place for me and me two senior parents. This was the perfect spot and much nicer, cleaner and more economical than a hotel. Greeter in person by the owners who were also next door if we had questions. The fresh cut flowers were a beautiful addition. Thanks Randy and Connie! We will definitely be back!"

"We were in town visiting sick family and unfortunately spent most of our time at the hospital. The home was located within 15 mins of UW Hospital and many local restaurants and shopping. The home had plenty of bedrooms and space if traveling with a larger group. We did take our dog and though there isn’t much yard space the neighborhood is great for a walk. Very safe and quiet. The only negative to the house would be the stairs if anyone has mobility issues. You have to do stairs to get to...

"Our stay at the Pink Acorn was amazing! Kelly truly makes her guests feel welcome. She left a sweet note and lovely treats. The house is stocked with everything you need and was exceptionally clean. The beds are super comfortable and have nice cozy blankets. Am added bonus was seeing rabbits and chipmunks in the backyard. Kelly leaves directions to walk to the beach around the corner and it’s a must do…and make sure to grab some ice cream at the shop across from the park."

"My many family members stayed at the property and gave only positive feedback. The large open living room/kitchen was perfect for all activities. They accessed many things by walking or driving at times. I worried that the daytime moving of parked cars on the street was an inconvenience, but three young men in the group didn't seem to mind. Parking ramps were easily available to others who visited."
