Our Guest Room, "The Moose Room"
Knotthole Bed and Breakfast
High atop a hill in the Snoqualmie Valley just east of Seattle in Easton WA. is the Knotthole Bed and Breakfast. Host and Hostess Howard and Laurie Knott graciously await your arrival. The home site view is breath taking but inside the lovely home these two visionaries dreamed, planned, designed and built. One is just captivated by the detail and carefully appointed features of this warm and welcoming home.
One awakens mornings to the gentle breeze whispering through the pines in unison with the melodic chirping of the birds. Hummingbirds can be seen flitting to and fro from the feeders or gleaning nectar from the blooms of the many flowers. It is natures best show only topped by the fine meals prepared by hostess Laurie! I will be posting some of Laurie's recipes, so do return to the blog for the recipes and my photos.
The guest rooms are so cleverly named and decorated in theme. Our room was the Moose Room. We were greeted by a large moose resting on our bed with clever moose decor thoughout. One can most appreciate the clever mind of the couple after viewing the Bed and Breakfast!
Out of doors the beautiful rock garden at the end of the inviting patio is landscaped with colorful endemic plantings and is the visiting spot of large monarch butterflies. A waterfall incorporated in the rock garden flows along the length of the back of the home. An outdoor fire pit is cleverly accompanied by three chain saw art bear cubs "roasting marshmallows".
The interior of the home displays the beautiful art chosen as a compliment to the harmony of the couple's exquisite taste. All in all when you are greeted by Laurie and Howard Knott, you will immediately feel you have found your home away from home. Visit the site www.KnottholeBandB.com
Please check back as I will be posting several of my photos along with more postings.
