We are right at the base of Phinney Ridge and Green Lake. A short walk up the hill, and you're immersed in coffee shops, boutiques, markets, and amazing restaurants. You don't need a car to get around. Bus stops, Lyft, scooters...all readily available. Green Lake is a famous 3-mile loop around a picturesque lake filled with wildlife and locals. You can rent kayaks, go fishing, or simply enjoy the park.
The Ballard Locks and marina are home to the infamous PNW Fleet, including the Deadliest Catch crab boats. You can book whale-watching tours, scenic tours, scenic plane rides and so much more!
Let us know if you need any suggestions. We are happy to help you find hidden gems that you may not know about if you're from out of town :)
