Parks & Nature

This hidden gem is a true treasure of Seattle and it is very close by! Meander the lush trails, watch for koi and turtles in the ponds, and enjoy beautiful views from the Moon Bridge. This peaceful retreat is absolutely not to be missed.

With incredible views of Mount Rainier, Mercer Island, and downtown Seattle skyscrapers, Seward Park is one of the best places to walk in the area. Its 2.2-mile loop gathers in some of the best scenery in Seattle, and for the adventurous there are myriad trails across the hillier areas. A great playground and lots of shady areas for picnics complete the park.

A hidden gem. If you want a real beach experience where you can frisk in the waters of Puget Sound, this place is where you want to go. Amazing sunsets, great beach for long romantic strolls, and a great feeling of being alone in the big city. Highly recommended.

Arts & Culture

Simply the best collection of aviation and space exploration history on the West Coast, and among the best in the country. Located by Boeing Field, this museum speaks directly to some of the critical history of Seattle as it grew into the technology and innovation hub it is today.

FREE ART. Not only does the Frye have a world class permanent collection - always worth visiting! - but it hosts regular exhibits of classic and modern artists. Definitely a hidden gem!

Drinks & Nightlife

German kitsch never goes out of style, and neither do the many beers the Berliner has on tap. The pretzels are not to be missed.

You can't go here without a member to get you in. It's an underground Goth/Industrial club where the music is still loud, the smoke is still thick, and the drinks are poured stiff. Not for the faint of heart, but a true legend of the Seattle club scene.

Seattle has an amazing craft beer/distiller/cider scene, and Seattle Cider is one of the best! This is a great place to hang out and drink cider, also offers light pub fare.

Getting Around

This is the hub for all bus routes in the area. Unless you are heading directly into Seattle (in which case you can catch the 106 north from a stop at 79th and Renton Ave, just a few blocks away from us) then this is where you want to head.

The LINK light rail connections a long corridor all the way from SeaTac airport (and even further south now) all the way up to North Seattle. Inexpensive and fast, the LINK is one of the best ways to get from SeaTac to the Garden Cottage - just ride it north to the Rainier Beach stop, walk one block east, and catch the 106 bus southbound along Renton Avenue. Get off at 79th and you're just three blocks away!
