A peaceful waterfront retreat unlike any other, The Log House is more than a place to stay. It is a place to breathe deeply, reconnect, and experience the rare beauty of Seattle from a private estate where history, nature, and comfort come together.
Guests will have access to the main level of the "Log House," excluding the locked owner's closets and the Log living room loft area.
Please note that the stairs leading to the bulkhead overlooking the beach can be extremely slippery and dangerous. For this reason, the gate to the beach is kept locked, but guests may request access if desired.
The basement of the "Log House" is off-limits to guests and has a separate entrance from the main level. We may occasionally need to access this space during your stay.
The Artist Loft is located above the detached garage near the entrance to the grounds. It's unlikely that you'll encounter our resident artist unless you're both arriving or leaving at the same time.
We offer a warm, unobtrusive hosting style. Kaela and her co-hosts are very responsive through the booking app (Airbnb/VRBO) during regular business hours. If you donโt hear back quickly, youโre welcome to text us. For urgent issuesโespecially trouble accessing the home or anything safety-relatedโplease call right away.
We truly appreciate guests who value respect, open communication, and transparency so everyone has a smooth, comfortable stay.
On occasion, you may see landscapers, groundskeeper, and maintenance persons. They will come and go without initiating interactions with guests.
We try to keep maintenance visits down when guests are present but it's not always possible.

Great place. You'll never find anything else like it in Magnolia or Seattle.
It is hard to capture how breathtaking this home is--and how much it feels like your home for the moment you enter. The pictures do not do the view justice; having Discovery Park at your back door was spectacular and and the house is beautiful but welcoming and comfortable. As are the gardens with flowers blooming from the time we arrived until the time we left. Kaela was a dream to have as host; easy and helpful communication. Without question we would rent here again! Thanks Kaela for a great visit!
We loved staying at the Log House, it was truly the best experience, it's hard to leave. Kaela is a great host, quick to respond, and goes out of her way to be helpful. The house was in perfect condition and has its own unique style that we admired. The pictures don't do this place justice, the house sprawling, each room is spacious with heigh ceilings and the view is utterly mesmerizing. We would sit in the living room and star out the giant windows watching nature scenes unfold, we were even visited by bald and golden eagles on multiple occasions. We will move our schedule around to find a way to stay there again!
