Great location
The house was in a great location for going to the zoo and downtown Seattle! We had 5 adults and 2 kids and fit great in the house! The backyard is small but was great for our 3 year old! Would definitely stay here again!

Great house for family
We love this house and stayed there twice. It has plenty of rooms which is great with the kids. We also have an au-pair who could stay in the basement with her own bathroom. Nice playroom with toys as well for the little ones.

Cutest Seattle Home
This cute, clean, comfortable home was spacious and had plenty of room for our family. The kitchen was well supplied with appliances and needed cook and dishware. The neighborhood was cozy and quiet and the outside areas were dreamy. We loved this house!

A Great House in a Great Neighborhood
The house exceeded our expectations. The kitchen is updated and well stocked with items needed for a comfortable stay. The house provided plenty of room for six adults and one infant. Green Lake, coffee shops and restaurants are all within an easy walk. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Loved it!
This home was ideal for our multi-generational family. We each had our own space and there was plenty of space to come together as a family. The property manager was incredibly responsive which made our stay wonderful. I had been concerned about the parking, but there was always a space right in front of the house in this quiet neighborhood. I highly recommend this property.

Great location, clean, cozy and spacious.
Beautiful updated older home. Excellent, flexible sleeping and working space. Fun toys for the kids. We had issues the first night getting hot water for shower, but manager was responsive to troubleshoot, all worked out for next day. Well appointed kitchen, bathroom (bidet!!) and communal spaces.

Great place to stay
The house met our needs perfectly. It was very clean and well equipped. Communication with the management company was difficult. There’s a long time lag for their responses and then they were unclear. Also, the checkout instructions that they emailed and which I didn’t receive until after I got home, didn’t match the ones in the house manual on site.

Great Vacation Rental!!
Booked for 6!people, but ended up with 4 of us! Worked out great, we all had a room of our own!! Beautiful VRBO! Comfortable beds, large living spaces throughout the house! Very comfortable home! Would be great for a family with children also!! Neighborhood was quiet! Only thing could add to the house is a hair dryer and maybe some cooking oil. Would give a 5/5 Star Review!!

Cute, convenient, comfy Green Lake charmer!
Easy to rent through VRBO. Good cancellation policy allowed us to secure the property and clarify a couple questions we had from the listing. It all worked out and we enjoyed our time there. We only used the main floor bedroom - but the house is very nice, well set up, and bigger than it looks. The weather wasn’t warm enough to spend time in the small enclosed yard - but maybe next time.

Green lake seattle
This house was awesome for our three generation family reunion. The toys and games in the home were fantastic. Kept our little ones happy all week. The house was super clean and catered to everything we needed. The fenced in back yard made our dog’s trip nice as well. The only thing I would recommend is a baking dish or two for the oven. Other than that the kitchen was very well equipped.

Nice place. Lots of rooms
Beautiful kitchen and plenty of beds and rooms. Had everything we needed and a nice little outdoor area. Just wished they had let us check in a little early. We had an accident and our back window broke as soon as we got to seattle. Our stuff was unsecured and we had no where to place it. We had to waste a vacation day sitting with our vehicle until 4pm check in time. I called vacasa and they said no early check ins at this unit. Still a lovely place though.

Needs Better Cleaning and Steep Stairs
This house definitely feels “lived in” and it shows based on the cleanliness of the house as a whole. From the bathrooms to towels to kitchen, it seemed as though the cleaning was done to about 80%, which just gave us a bad feeling and spent our first day washing the utensils and pots/pans/plates we planned on using. The stairs in the property are also very steep. We were very concerned with our toddler in the house, which limited our ability to use the house in its entirety comfortably. It may be worth noting this for families or older people looking to rent the house.

Great location--disappointing property
Situated walking distance from Green Lake park, restaurants and coffee, it's a great location. No problem parking on the street. Décor was nice, with a new but cramped kitchen. When we arrived we found more than a few piles of dog droppings in the back yard, as well bird doo on the outdoor furniture. Some dishes were put away dirty. There was no bedding for the pull out sofa. When we notified management, it took two days to get the right bedding, on the last night of our stay. Internet had the annoying habit of regularly throwing us off. When we complained about that, we were given an alternate network to use which worked fine. Don't know why this wasn't the primary network. There was no check out procedure, so others may have taken advantage to leave the place in bad shape. But at least the cleaners should have picked up the dog poop. We did request and receive a partial refund which management agreed after several days back and forth. I'm getting a $10 gift card for providing this review.

Awesome Green Lake location for Seattle exploration
Strengths: Location - Our family of six adults and one baby visited Seattle for 5 days and this was a great location for our needs: walkable to Green Lake, a local market, donut and coffee shop, a few restaurants; close to the highway to get downtown or head north; and plenty of street parking for easy coming and going. Size and space - The ground floor bedroom was the smallest of the 3, but had a great bed, sizable closet, and was right near the main bathroom. Upstairs and downstairs rooms were rather spacious with two additional small rooms upstairs - one we used as an office for remote work and one is where the baby slept in her crib. Amenities - Kitchen was nice and new, living room was super spacious, back den acted as our 4th bedroom with a comfy couch, big TV, good wifi, a few children's books and toys, and the gym room was very spacious in the basement and included things like bikes, an inflatable kayak, and workout equipment. Weaknesses: Thinner walls made phone calls, toilet flushes, and snoring a bit more present than we were used to at home - at least on the ground floor. Vacasa (the management company) didn't respond to an inquiry we made about guest limits and access. They did get us early access, but if you have questions for them - be prepared to wait or follow-up a few times. Low ceilings in the basement. I'm 6-4 and had to duck quite a bit to move around down there. Overall: We'd definitely stay again. Great spot, solid house, fit our needs.
