About this property

Lakefront- fenced - no animal- allergies

  • Come to experience a luxurious stay on a beautiful lakefront home with own beach and dock. The lake
    is fresh, clear, and clean with lots of fish for fishing activity on your own private dock. Swimming is also one of the favorite activities while staying at the house. A 3-person paddle boat is provided free-of-charge for your enjoyment. The house is within walking distant to a beautiful, green, and well maintained park with swimming area and large playground for the children.
    You will find two bedrooms, a private bath with a spacious kitchen, complete with dining room and living room, both with the lake view. A
    private laundry room with large size washer and dryer. Living room is
    furnished with 2 configurable couches. Walk out your living room to a large deck to enjoy the fresh breeze and the view of the lake. Outdoor gas grill is provided for bbq and gather cooking. There is a fire pit on private beach
    for a bonfire evening with friends, family, or business associates.
    For leisure travelers, we are in the heart of the city with endless activities/attractions in or
    nearby cities; i.e. golf, skiing, ice skating, water activities, mountain activities, city
    activities, theme parks, etc... Or you could just sit in the deck or on the dock, reading books, and
    enjoy the green beautiful view and the fresh breeze that the lake provides.
    For business travelers, we are also very close to big corporations such as Weyerhaeuser, Boeing,
    Alaska Air, etc.. Come and stay as a warm and cozy home away from home while attending businesses.
    We are just fifteen minutes south from Sea-Tac airport, and 20 minutes from downtown Seattle or
    downtown Tacoma. Close to numerous attractions, or secluded enough to just relax and enjoy the view
    and activities on the awesome lake for a few days - especially the magnificent sunset. More
    pictures will be sent upon request.
    There are 2 exterior - outside the house - camera at the entrance door to the house. One point toward the parking area - inside the gate, and one point at platform in front of the door. There is no camera inside the house nor point toward inside the house. Shared dock, paddle boats, and kayak with next house’s Guests. The property is for general lodging. It is not for accommodating Guests medical and/or allergy conditions.

A cozy and clean waterfront home

The home was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The location is beautiful and feels private while still being near shopping and entertainment. We were here for a swim meet at the Weyerhaeuser Aquatic Center and the house was a nice short drive away.

A lovely respite in the midst of where you want to be…

Spain, California and Arizona is where we 3 arrived from to visit our old stomping grounds. What a delightful stay we enjoyed on Steele Lake. This little hideaway is centrally located to all the beautiful people, places and things we had in mind. Wonderful Host as well. ⭐️ Beautiful views and grounds too🤩

Steel Lake stay

Nice little place on Steel Lake. House has everything you need. Nice little property located close to shops and restaurants. We had an early flight and the owner was kind enough to allow us an early check in.

Very clean property and very nice host

We were so pleased how CLEAN the place was. The fragrance was a little too strong but we appreciated the cleanliness. The porch and dock could use some maintenance or replaced eventually but everything else was perfect

Peace and Quiet during busy weekend

We picked this property because of the peaceful pictures. We had a stressful weekend ahead and were looking for a little retreat. The views didn't disappoint and the owner was a delight to work with. The property had a few issues but overall worked well for our needs.

Family vacation

Our overall stay was great. The property was clean (except for the windows) and had everything we needed and is in a great location. The pictures are a bit deceiving, the outside of the property looks nothing like the pictures and could use quite a bit of updating. Kathy was very kind and responsive to all messages.

Family Time

I was thrilled to find a location close to my sister’s house. It was a perfect size for the two of us. Making meals didn’t require buying extra of anything because it was so well stocked with ingredients (mustard, olive oil etc.). The view of the lake was just as pictured. This may be my home away for next year when I visit.

Simply wonderful!

I’ve been fortunate and have done a lot of traveling in the past 20 years. This is an amazing hideaway with lots of parking and easy access to shopping. Plus it’s absolutely as beautiful as the picture I couldn’t be happier. My host was wonderful and checked up on us to make sure things were good. Thank you, Kathy! I hope to stay again soon.

Love Living the Lake Life

The view was wonderful. Breakfast on the deck/time on the dock/use of paddleboat and kayak were great! The house was fully stocked w everything we needed. There is one portable AC unit which kept most of it cool, but was a bit hot in the bedrooms at night. Very helpful ghosts. cool

cute little getaway

The owner (Kathy) was super responsive when we had any questions. Had almost ever thing we needed for supplies, kitchen, linens and bathroom. It was a great home base for our Seattle/Tacoma Vacation. The only complaints I have is the lake on our side isn't swimmable (very weedy and muddy). However drive 5 minutes or use the provided pedal boat or kayak and get to a nice swim area with a giant playground. The master bed was not very comfortable. The twin beds and the couches were better.

Exceptional

When you look for a place to unwind, clear your head and rejuvenate this is the exact place you need to be. The home can be used for both families and individual travellers with is perfect flexibility. Kathy was super friendly and always communicating to ensure I was comfortable during the entire stay. She is such a warm soul and a joy to be around. The place is clean and offers a lot of privacy for those seeking a getaway. There were also some outdoor activity options that one can indulge in. I have definitely found a gem that I can call home for many more visits to come. I would highly recommend it without doubt.

This was the perfect distance away from the city for us. The driveway was slightly hard to find when we arrived in the dark, and we had some trouble with the paddle boat (there may have been a hole?), but overall we had a great experience. Host communication was great and the process was very smooth. Close to a grocery store and the lake was beautiful. Would stay again.

6/10 Okay

This home was on a cute little lake and did have a good, central location. However, we did not find this property to be as advertised. It was in a bit of disrepair including a ceiling leak, ripped screen door, broken window, etc. The basic amenities such as paper products and towels were provided, but just be ready for things like no extra bedding, one pillow on each bed, no laundry detergent, no life jackets, etc. The dock felt a little unsafe and one of the peddle boats leaked while the other was missing a seat so we were not able to use them during our stay. This home was ok, but was not what I was expecting for the price we paid. The owner was easy to communicate and work with.

Kathy is an awesome host and her place on Steele Lake is perfect. 20 minutes from SEA and close to all kinds of shopping and resturants. The view of the lake from the deck was great with all kinds of ducks and geese we don't see at home in Florida. Would highly recommend and will stay again!
