Even a rainy day is fun for reading on the front porch. We have off-street parking for one vehicle, but the light rail train is so nearby, that you won't need to drive to a restaurant, grocery store or entertainment!
It's a whimsical retreat! For travelers who appreciate the textile arts and crafts, the whimsy starts at the entry door on the second-floor. Custom-painted and textured walls and movie-theater carpet create a one-of-a-kind environment so you know you're going to feel comfortable and creative! Built-in night lights in all rooms will keep you sure-footed even when it's dark.
The sitting room is ready for your relaxation and enjoyment. Recliners, TV, DVD, Roku/Netflix, radio/BlueTooth player, desk, table & chairs, books, and games, make having fun easy. Original art decorates the walls. The Gift Shop is in the hall outside the suite.
Bobbin House and Guest Suite has high-speed fiber optic internet throughout.
- BATHROOM
The sparkling bathroom is fully ceramic-tiled. The shower has a bench seat! A storage cabinet will hold your toiletries. In short, it's everything you'll need to feel fresh and ready to go (even a hair dryer is provided!)
- BEDROOM
The cozy bedroom has one king-size "Sleep Number" bed. To make your stay comfortable, we provide 100% Cotton sheets and towels, alarmclock radio, reading lamps, 2 dressers, and 2 closets with full-length mirrored doors. A frosted-glass door separates the sitting room and bedroom.
Two identically equipped closets hold multiple kinds of hangers, extra pillow and extra blankets. There's also a laptop desk in each one.

- THE GIFT SHOP CABINET AND HALLWAY
If you're looking for a gift to suit a fiber artist, there are many choices available at Bobbin House Studio. We don't have a whole store, but our "Gift Shop Cabinet" is stuffed with fun and functonal sewing supplies which are always priced at 30% below typical retail. The "Hallway" gift shop offers rugs, towels, hats, scarves, wall-hangings, placemats and whatever else we happen to make!
Just steps away from light rail, the front garden of Bobbin House is a small oasis in early summer.
