“I am truly grateful I found your bed & breakfast and decided to stay here. You have a beautiful house and great pets. But, the best part of my stay was your company. I thoroughly enjoyed Marianne's conversations in the morning accompanied by fantastic breakfasts. I much prefer coming "home" at night to continue our conversations. Marianne, your breakfasts are beyond compare! Thank you for a wonderful stay, and I hope to see you sometime again.

“Stsaying at your home made myu week long yoga workshops even much more enjoyable. Although I'm sure I gained weight despite the tough workout every day! Your dogs made me feel right at home because I can rub Kai's tummy just the way I rub myu coco's tummy. And what a great idea to provide bathrobes for guests. Thank you all for being such gracious hosts.

We enjoyed your Steinway (and you playing it, the best little doggies in Washington State, the delicious breakfasts, and dreaming about your now dormant- but surely beautiful gardens. If fate brings us back here, we will surely be in touch.

“Your warmth, hospitality and joie de vivre will be etched in my memory. For a weary traveller, arriving after snowstorms, cancelled flights etc without her suitcase(!) Marianne's smiling face opening the door was a gift that made it all better. Bill's kindness to wait up for my suitcase touched my heart. The delicious breakfasts this homey beautiful room and the beautiful gardens are all part of wonderful first trip away from my family. Thank you, thank you, merci

“Mahalo for sharing your home with us. Not Accustomed to city life, our stay with you was a peaceful and soothing experience in the land of hustle-bustle freeways. Although cold for us, the stay was quite relaxing. Your home and garden was beautiful, the accommodations wonderful, breakfasts delicious and your dog, Kai, was a pleasure to be with. Mahalo nui loa, me ke abha akua!

“Kevin certainly knew what he was doing the first time he stayed with you on business. He did say I would love it here. He was certainly on the nose with that comment. This is a home away from home. This place is a bit of heaven when you walk through the door. The breakfasts were stupendous. Marianne is such a lovely, good -souled person who lives life to the fullest with a big heart. Bill, we loved the story about how you got to be Captain of a large ship. I hope we see you all again in the future. Kevin and I would recommend this place in a heart-beat.
