A Tranquil Garden Escape Near Seattle

Escape the noise of the city and experience a peaceful countryside retreat designed for comfort, nature, and quiet luxury.

 

Welcome to The Grayson: Show Up and Exhale

Tranquility Found: 

At The Grayson, the day begins with our signature Garden-to-Table Bed & Breakfast experience, where clean cuisine and our famous Saturday Brunch take center stage. We believe a truly great stay is rooted in restoration, and that begins with the Best Night’s Sleep. Our luxury beds and bedding are custom-designed for ultimate comfort, ensuring you wake up refreshed and ready for the day—though they are so cozy, you may find yourself wanting to linger in bed just a little bit longer.

You are invited to spend your mornings strolling through our lush gardens, feeding the free-range chickens, or spotting the roaming deer. While our property offers a rare "off-the-grid" tranquility where you can truly unplug, convenience is just around the corner. We are located only two miles from local wineries, boutique shopping, and fine eateries, all while being surrounded by the best of PNW eco-tourism—from hiking and biking to the breathtaking foothills of the Cascades.

The Ultimate PNW Getaway & Gathering Place

Our sanctuary is designed for those who want to "Stay and Play," serving as the premier backdrop for life's most meaningful gatherings. Whether you are seeking a romantic couples' retreat, a solo adventure, or a vacation for the whole family—pets and all generations included—we provide an authentically warm welcome for everyone. To ensure every guest feels at home, we offer ADA-accessible accommodations and family-friendly essentials, including mini-cribs and pack-n-plays, making The Grayson a comfortable and inclusive retreat for all. Our wide-open spaces and cozy corners offer a perfect sanctuary for bridal parties, wedding guests, and family reunions, ensuring your special occasions are nestled in beauty and peace.

Strategic Hub for Extended Visits & Professional Stays

For guests who need to stay longer, we specialize in providing a "soft landing" for those in the midst of life's transitions. We are a stipend-friendly home base for traveling nurses and a reliable haven for families navigating insurance displacement (ALE) or the "real estate limbo" of relocation.

Perfectly situated for the modern professional, we are just minutes from the Redmond Campus, Microsoft, Google, Meta, Starlink, and Boeing, with an easy commute to major regional hospitals. When you are ready for a night out, a quick Uber will take you straight to Seattle’s world-class concerts and cultural attractions, as well as the nearby Evergreen State Fairgrounds, Equestrian events, and the Speedway.

Seamless Living & VIP Convenience

Our furnished extended stays (30, 60, or 90+ days) are tax-free and designed for total flexibility, requiring no lease, no deposit, and no first or last month’s rent. We make it easy to move in with just a suitcase, providing a fully equipped kitchen, Starlink High-Speed Wi-Fi, weekly maid service, and fresh towels daily.

For the busy, "on-the-go" professional, our VIP Packages offer the ultimate hassle-free experience with inclusive meals and full laundry service. Whether you are here for a weekend or a season, The Grayson is where you don't just stay—you live well.

We had a lovely stay at the Grayson. We booked to stay in Pike room for one night and upon arrival, Miriam offered to upgrade us to Baker room which was very kind of her. The room was clean, comfortable and the whole stay was very restful. We enjoyed seeing the various animals: the dog, the cats, the rabbits and the chickens. The breakfast was delicious and Miriam went out of her way to accommodate our specific dietary needs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend The Grayson!

This lovely home provides plenty of space both inside and outside to meet the needs of travelers and families. Miriam is a generous and gracious host. The home is pet friendly for those travelling with furry family members and comes with fur-friends of its own as well as a flock of chickens! The food is wonderful, lots' of towels and blankets are on hand as well as a coffee supplies and refrigerator space for each room. This is your home away from home.

This was the BEST stay I've ever had in a B&B. Miriam is a wonderful host who makes the most decadent breakfasts, the house is fantastic and super clean. The grounds around the home are relaxing and beautiful also. I was here on a work trip, but I look forward to returning when I can explore more of the area on my own time (and be spoiled by Miriam's breakfasts again!).

 About the Host & our Crew,

 

This our my form of Work-Life Balance." Yes, I am sharing these personal photos because if you know me, you know these characters too.

 

I am married, have adult children and grandchildren, WE ARE animal lovers, and I have an entrepreneurial spirit, taking on meaningful projects as well as donating time to more than one Nonprofit organization.

 

I personally have great respect and gratitude for Heroes & Saints. I am the Daughter of a Vietnam Veteran (thank you, Dad) and a police officer (thank you, Mom). I myself worked in Healthcare for over 25 years- retired to pursue Life...

 

I enjoy meeting new people, entertaining and spending time, lots and lots of time with family. I usually can be found in the kitchen, or being a taxi to our next activity. I often have 3 or 4 coffee cups going at the same time, and I do misplace my keys from time to time- but hey, who's perfect!  

 

These are snapshots from the phone of my full life and crazy family.  This is my form of Work-Life Balance. I have been so blessed!  I am Crazy about my GrandKids!
