Hello! We are Sherry and Bryce Holmes from Washington State in the United States. We are looking forward to having new adventures, meeting new people, and exploring new places. Sherry recently retired from her work in public television and Bryce is a writer for a local technology company. We live in a beautiful waterfront home on Puget Sound close to Seattle, Washington.
We are an active couple and we enjoy exploring natural areas, historical towns, and local food.
We are experienced home exchangers, having enjoyed 3 through HomeLink a while back and love it because it helps us get to know an area in a different way than if we are tourists staying in a hotel. We're ready for our next adventure.

Beschrijving van het huis dat wij aanbieden voor ruil
Enjoy modern comfort in our contemporary waterfront home near Seattle, Washington, USA. Our 3-bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home is roomy, fresh, and clean. Water views from living areas, bedrooms and decks are stunning. Gardens are full of flowers. Watch the eagles soar and the sea otters play! Maybe you'll even spot a whale! When you aren't relaxing on the deck, or sitting by the fire, plan a trip to Seattle, or Victoria, British Columbia. Our home is located on Puget Sound in Suquamish, WA, about 20 minutes from the ferry terminal. Downtown Seattle is a 35-minute ferry ride away.

Beschrijving van onze buurt en omgeving
Suquamish is an area of stunning natural beauty. Water and mountain views are everywhere. Suquamish is accessed primarily by ferry from downtown Seattle and has a slower pace than the city. Homes in the area are well kept with a variety of larger, new homes and older beach cottages. Most necessities are in nearby towns, about 15 minutes away. Suquamish is also home to a native American tribe. The Suquamish tribe runs an excellent history museum and a casino a few miles away. Suquamish is a good reprieve from the hustle and bustle of Seattle, yet the city is easily accessible for day trips.

Onze tips voor leuke activiteiten en uitjes bij ons in de buurt
Suquamish is close to lots of outdoor activities like hiking (or snowshoeing!) in the Olympic National Park, beachcombing from our house, or beachcombing on the Pacific Ocean, kayaking, mountain biking, golfing, etc. If you visit in the winter time, enjoy downhill skiing, snowboarding, or world-class Nordic skiing within a few hours’ drive. We are also just a mile or two from Bainbridge Island, the birthplace of the popular sport of pickleball!
If you like site seeing and big-city activities, visit Seattle, home of Starbucks coffee, Boeing Aerospace, Microsoft, Amazon, as well as national sports teams, world-class art museums, and delicious Northwest seafood of course! Victoria, Whistler, and Vancouver (all in British Columbia, Canada) also make good overnight trips while you're in the area. Whether you love natural beauty like snow-capped mountains or ocean, or prefer the urban scene, it's all close by!

Wat we graag willen of wat juist niet...
Please take care of our home and belongs as you would your own. You'll find our home clean when you arrive. Please leave it clean when you depart. Be respectful of our neighbors as noise travels easily on the water. No smoking or vaping of any kind. No pets. Please do not eat and drink in carpeted areas. Please remove shoes when walking on carpeted areas.
We hope to find a longer exchange of 2 weeks to a month. We are willing to discuss the possibility of car usage as well.
