Your Eastside home base

Close to the energy.
Removed from the noise.

Our home is in northern Sammamish, a leafy residential community between Redmond and Issaquah. It is an especially convenient base for visits to Microsoft and the greater Eastside, while still offering the calm, space, and scenery that make a stay feel restorative.

Spend the morning beside the lake, meet colleagues in Redmond or Bellevue, and return to a private retreat for dinner on the deck. A car is recommended for the easiest and most flexible experience.
