Foote Street is an adorable home in southwest Olympia which has been completely renovated by the owners, Chris and Ashlynn Strode. It sits on a hill with chamber of commerce views of the lake, State Capitol building and Mt. Ranier. The views are simply breathtaking. What you see in the owner photos is accurate. The renovations of this home include an open floorplan, huge island in the kitchen with lots of room for both cooks and observers, and finished with high end appliances. The kitchen is well stocked with all the cookware and dishes you will need. The comfortable adjacent living room includes an L shaped sofa, comfy leather chair, big tv with access to Hulu, Netflix, Apple TV, a working wood fireplace, and more large windows with THAT VIEW! There are upper and lower decks for good weather days, a gas grill (we used it), and outdoor dining furniture. The beds are comfortable - as are the pillows (the true test of a good home). This home is a little oasis. We didn't have a need to be downstairs much, but there is more room for larger groups and good spot for kids to have their own space. There are thoughtful touches that make it comfortable - for example, there are phone charges around the island and on the microwave, and really cool night lites that softly light up in the ceiling as it senses motion. Don't pack any extras as the house is well stocked with shampoo, conditioner, soap, hairdryers, dish detergent, trashbags, clothes detergent, and a washer and dryer downstairs. The owners deserve the highest of marks for their responsiveness to any question we had - big or small. We were lucky enough to catch them out in the yard one day and they are as friendly and nice in person as they were online in the rental process. We found that there were plenty of nights we just wanted to stay in because the house is so comfortable and relaxing. To that end, there is a great grocery/deli at the bottom of the hill with everything you will need. This home is a winner and I highly recommend it!
