The kitchen bar with stools is a perfect place to post up for a warm cup of coffee, entertain the chef or get a little work done. Finally, we've provided a curated selection of local wines in the unit available for purchase. Salud!

The living room features soaring ceilings, a warm yet modern fireplace, cozy couch and side chairs to watch TV from, read a book in, or simply take in the amazing views. Netflix, Hulu Live, Disney , Paramount + and Amazon Prime are provided for your viewing pleasure.

Guest access
In addition to the unit itself, guests are welcome to use the BBQ, outdoor dining area, fire pit and furniture, nd a sitting area in the backyard with Adirondack chairs and a propane fire table has also been provided. The main house, shed and front yard are private property of the Gateway House and we kindly ask you to respect those being off limits.
Other things to note
Pets: The Getaway welcomes friendly and well behaved dogs only for an additional fee. The backyard is fully fenced for dogs. Pets are not allowed on the bed or any furniture (we kindly ask you not to book please if your dog is unable to stay off the furniture). Your dog needs to be pet and child friendly. We charge a pet fee for the 2 night minimum but anything beyond that we will charge an additional $15 per day (an additional $10/day for a additional pets) as a separate charge you will see billed over AirBnB. The pet fee should cover use of the space but if its overly dirty there may be additional cleaning costs after your stay requested.

Kids: The getaway is not appropriate for children 6 months-5 years old due to open railings and a fireplace. Specific requests will be considered but are not guaranteed.

Shared Property: The Getaway is connected and on the same property as the Gateway House. You will share the back yard amenities with those guests but have separate entrances and spaces.

Activity planning: There are extensive bike and hiking trails that can be accessed within minutes of the Gateway Getaway's driveway. As a lifelong Issaquah resident, my family and I can help you design the perfect itinerary, whether it be hiking, mountain biking, brewery hopping, concert going or simply relaxing. We're proud of our Issaquah community and look forward to sharing some of it with you.
