MAGNOLIA COTTAGE BY DISCOVERY PARK

We are a stone throw away from the Historical Discovery Park and Fort Lawton (in the Magnolia neighborhood, west of Queen Anne), where you will find 5 miles of hiking, a Beach and a Beautiful Historical Lighthouse!
Our Above-street location offers privacy enhanced by a gated fence!
This remodeled stand alone, single level 1940's charming cottage is easily accessed by 23 stair steps from the city sidewalk!
You will find yourself in a private landing once inside the gate.
Whereas the front yard offers a bench for your morning coffee, the private backyard is made for quiet moments with nature where you can meditate or do yoga on the deck listening to the birds and wildlife scavenge for food.
Our backyard supports and promote an organic and natural environment for wildlife pollinators!
We ask that you do not feed any wildlife animals from raccoons, to rabbits,squirrels and various birds.
The vintage 2 bedroom cottage with one bathroom has an open floor layout for the living room, dining and kitchen area. Our kitchen has basic cooking supplies you may need for making home meals, coffee, tea and cookies!
It is cozy and Perfect for couples, solo adventurers, writers, business travelers, and families with kids, (our cottage is not childproof).
Our place is well loved and reminiscent of cottages that once surrounded Fort Lawton but now mostly gone. Our cottage only hosts one guest/group at a time and is not shared with anyone during your stay.
Our vintage cottage has character as it has settled through time.
Our neighbors are all year round residents. It's the perfect base for memorable hikes and strolls to the beach and the bluff and 10 mins to downtown Seattle.
Grocery is only 2 blocks away, a leisure 7 minute walk! Public transit is next to the grocery store.
We are an easy 10 minute taxi ride to Downtown, Pike's Place Market, South Lake Union, Fremont or University District!
North Magnolia is bordered by The Ballard Locks and Salmon Fish Ladder! South Magnolia is bordered by Pier 89-91, where the Alaska Cruises embark to and from.

Great Accommodation in quiet Seattle Neighborhood
Appreciated the stay in a quiet walk able neighborhood in Seattle. We enjoyed the backyard area and the garden that offered a nice area to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee. The market within walking distance was a great location to pick up food and other items.

Cutest spit in Magnolia
We had a great experience renting from Lauren. The house was perfect for our family of three. There were fresh cut flowers, coffee and comfortable bedding. The back patio was darling and we enjoyed mornings out there with our coffee. the kitchen is fully stocked and there is even a washer and dryer if you need. We will stay here again when we return to Seattle.

This was such a special stay—from the garden in back to the morning sun rises, to cooking in the cottage kitchen, it was a true delight! Thank you, Lauren, for this sweet respite! So private and serene!!

accessible and adorable
Great place with walkable access to a grocery store and of course discovery park. I was able to work during the day and head out in the evening while my partner was able to entertain herself during the day due to the location of the house. Lovely gardens in the back to look at in the back and along the rock wall in the front.
