Landing a contract at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett is exciting. Finding a place to live for 13 weeks is less fun. Hotels in Snohomish County add up fast, and after a long shift you want more than a mini fridge and a microwave.

If you are a travel nurse, traveling therapist, physician or other medical professional on assignment in Everett, the Silver Lake House is a furnished home that works well for a monthly stay. Here is what it offers and why it can beat a hotel.

About Providence Regional Medical Center Everett

Providence Regional Medical Center Everett is a Level II trauma center with two campuses in downtown Everett. The Colby Campus handles emergency, critical care, surgery and cardiac care, and the Pacific Campus includes rehabilitation and the Pavilion for Women and Children. It is one of the largest hospitals north of Seattle, so it brings in a steady stream of travel nurses and contract staff.

The Silver Lake House sits in south Everett, close to I-5, so getting to downtown Everett is a simple drive. An Everett Transit bus stop is also just a block or two away if you would rather leave the car parked.

Why a Furnished Home Beats a Hotel for a 13-Week Contract

A hotel is fine for a few nights. For a few months, you want a real home base. The Silver Lake House is a 1950s mid-century lakefront cabin with everything you need for day-to-day life:

• Full kitchen so you can meal prep for long shifts instead of eating out every day
• Washer and dryer in the home for scrubs and everyday laundry
• Workspace and fast Wi-Fi for charting, CEUs, video calls with family or your agency
• 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, sleeping up to 7, so it works for one professional or a couple of colleagues sharing
• Smart TV and a game room with air hockey for your days off
• Pet-friendly (with a fee), so your dog does not have to stay home

A Calm Place to Recharge After a Shift

Healthcare work is demanding, and where you rest matters. The house sits right on Silver Lake with a private dock and lake views from the living room. The stone fireplace and sunken living room make it a cozy spot on gray Pacific Northwest evenings.

On your days off, the 2.2-mile loop around the lake is an easy walk, with two public parks, swimming areas and disc golf along the way. It is a quiet neighborhood with quiet hours from 9 PM to 8 AM and no parties allowed, which makes it a good fit for people who need real sleep.

Close to the Rest of Snohomish County

South Everett is a handy spot for running errands and exploring. Mill Creek, Mukilteo and Paine Field are all nearby, and I-5 connects you to Seattle when you want a day in the city. Grocery stores, coffee and restaurants are a short drive away.

Monthly Stays Welcome

The Silver Lake House welcomes monthly and extended stays, whether you are on a travel contract, relocating to Everett for a permanent position, or waiting on a new home. If your stay is connected to an insurance claim, see our insurance and temporary housing page for Everett.

A few house notes so you know what to expect: there are no outdoor fires, and there is no fence between the lawn and the water.

Booking direct is the simplest way to set up a longer stay. Have a question about your contract dates or a start date that might shift? Call or text Derrick at 360-913-5965.
