Parks & Nature

Just a few steps to this incredible park, the largest in Seattle. It has miles of trials and an almost mile long paved walk along the beach. Great for a walk or a run.

Arts & Culture

Great theater in the Junction. They do a wide variety of plays and musicals, utilizing very professional actors. There is usually an art display in the waiting area. This can be seen without buying a ticket.

The Greek Pizza and Greek Salad are our favorites. On a sunny day, get one to go and dine on the beach, just across the street.

Getting Around

We are a one minute walk down the hill to the Fauntleroy Ferry Dock and the North and South bound C bus. Northbound will take you to the junctions and on to downtown without a tranfer. Southbound will take you to Westwood Village Mall, where you can catch the 560 to the airport. For downtown, take the C. You don't want to park downtown!
