Six of us, ages 71-10, stayed here for 3 days before Christmas. Everything was clean, in working order and comfortable. I’d stay here again if ever in the area.

Loved the house, the neighborhood restaurants, the lake across the street!

Very spacious place with “older house” charm. The kitchen had the basics included and, as a plus, each bedroom had a smart TV. Terrific porch for people watching and, while the basement is a little chilly, it was easy to fix the thermostat to make the house most comfortable. Would highly recommend for families, or friends- any time of year. Oh and their board game collection is on point:)

Cute little older craftsman house by Green lake. Very close to coffee shops and restaurants. Nice view and trees around. Quirky older home with steep stairs going upstairs to a jack and jill bathroom which was nice for our two kids age 3 and 6. Home could use some remodeling and deep cleaning. Furniture and and bedding were comfortable and clean though.

This comfortable house is perfectly located across the street from Green Lake and with in walking distance distance from restaurants and a grocery store.

We really enjoyed our stay at this nice craftsman on the north side of Green lake. Great neighborhood. A bit of an ant problem. But we really enjoyed playing games and running around the lake. And it is a lovely house.

Overall this is a 5 star rating with a responsive and well run management team. My caveat is for those who come during hot months. It's clear from the listing there is no air conditioning. The management team had many fans blowing but when it is global climate change it isn't enough. The ground floor windows mostly do not open and if they do open it's just an inch or so. Some had no screens. Also, when there is smoke in the air, we had hesitancy opening the windows at night to cool down the house. Also, it would be useful if there were a few more cool blankets. The thick comforters are great but only when it is cold. Most of the year this won't be a problem of course.

I expected there would be some other charges above the nightly in the listing, but the addition of a Host Fee, a Service Fee, and tax brought the total to an over 62% increase in the "listed" cost of the rental. Part of this was explained by Vacasa as payment for superb management availability and responsiveness, coupled with "professional housekeeping". As demonstrated below, neither of those justifications proved real or fulfilled.
I should have been alerted to those future failures, when in response to my inquiry as to why our nightly rate was 25% higher than it was for the days before our arrival, Vacasa's representative glibly responded that "rates can shift throughout the day". The pictures of the house on the website, failed to show the following:
Missing whole or partial slats in venetian blinds in the living room and bedroom; main bedroom windows were frozen shut (paint); overflowing trash barrels when we arrived; rheostat dimmer light switch knobs were stripped. There was a room air conditioner in one picture at the house-none there on arrival-no mention of fans. Written questions were never answered prior to arrival. I gave Vacasa a chance to respond to the above before writing this, but all I got back were canned responses (i.e., "we apologize for the inconvenience", we "understand if this matter has been frustrating to you", etc.).

Excellent house and location for families
5.0
We stayed here with our three little boys, it was wonderful being able to walk over to the lake everyday. The house is near two coffee shops, pizza and ice cream. So we had a great time.
A few minor issues not the fault of the house. There’s no way to childproof the backdoor and it opens very easily. My 1 year old was very interested in this. The driveway entrance is older with faded paint and several times people parked there and blocked it, mostly on the weekend.

Excellent location and such a cute house. Yes, it’s an older house but it has a lot of charm! I personally love old houses so I felt right at home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Was perfect for our family. Lovely old house with all the amenities you need. It was helpful to have the mini soaps and shampoos and the soap and dishwasher tabs for the kitchen. The lake was beautiful and we felt close to everything! Thanks for such a great stay! We will come again.

My husband and I met our two college kids there for spring break. We all came in from different states for this trip. One of my sons as well as myself had not been to WA so we wanted something in the area of many places. The house was in a great location to venture out from. We were close to Fremont, Cap hill, Seattle, Chinatown, Pike Place, the list goes on. We enjoyed walks around the lake every morning and grabbed coffee at the local coffee shop on the lake. It was just perfect!

We loved being across from Green Lake and the great trails. The house was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. There are tasty restaurants close by (a bakery with yummy croissants). It’s an older house with some quirky features and we felt very much at home. Check in and entry was easy. And everything was very clean! We would definitely stay here again

Condition issues limit the rating of this rental to a three. Issues like significant cracks in plaster and paint, worn and torn bedding, broken blinds and a very strong musty odor stop this rental from being great.
4.0
A few issues upon check-in: most of the overhead lights were not functioning due to tripped breaker.
Ants in Kitchen & very little insecticide for an 11 day stay.
A lot of water is wasted before get hot water to upstairs bathroom.
Only a small amount of TP for an 11 day stay with three adults.
No screens in any of the windows, which makes it difficult to cool down the house at night without various insects coming in the house.
Mold on the refrigerator French door seals.
Good location, beautiful tall treea surround the park, several cafes & shops very close by.

We had a pleasant stay here. The location was perfect for us as we were visiting family in the neighborhood. Proximity to the park is ideal. The house is nice and quiet despite the fact it’s on a busy street. I’m a light sleeper and had no issues.

House was clean. A charming older home set right on the lake and a beautiful park. Great for walking, great restaurants close by. Host was very responsive. I slept on the twin bed and it was incredibly comfortable. I did hear all the beds were as comfy.
Only 2 miles from the park and ride light rail.
Ping pong table was wonky but functional. Fun little basement game area.
I would definitely return.

Perfect wedding week home
This house was EVERYTHING we could have hoped for and more! I needed a fully equipped kitchen to do some wedding festivities cooking and this was BY FAR the BEST equipped rental kitchen I have ever stayed in. And the rest of the house space inside and outside was inviting comfortable beautifully appointed and had thoughtfully included small amenities of everything we might need or want. It was the perfect gathering place as we ran around preparing for our daughter’s wedding. The only negative was that the downstairs windows in the back bedroom were painted shut and our family wanted some fresh air in the room. We can not wait to come again and plan to spend more time to enjoy this wonderful home and location.

Lakefront craftsmen
Easy access location to downtown trips such as the zoo, space needle, aquarium and science center. Spacious house. Well kept. Lots of character and charm. Easily fit 3 adults and 3 kids. The kids especially loved the foosball and ping pong tables in the basement. Also, the park and lake across the street were great for a walk.

Convenient and comfortable Greenlake house
The location can’t be beat. Charming. Well-equipped kitchen. Limited seating in common space. Would appreciate locks on bathroom doors. Upgrade the linens and supply more towels. Nice to have off-street parking. Lots of good TVs.

Family time at Green Lake - I would actually say a 4.5 star
I enjoyed the house at Green Lake. It is a very nice property in a great location for the lake, University of Washington or downtown Seattle . There are a lot of restaurants close by and the 2.8 mile walk around the lake is perfect for runners or strollers. The house has 2 bedrooms on the main floor and two bedrooms upstairs. The basement holds a gaming room, and a washer and dryer, which was very convenient with the lake. I was fortunate enough to stay just after they opened the tunnel on Aurora or Hwy 99 and it makes travelling North/South so nice. Avoiding Interstate 5 made travelling to and from Seattle a short trip. It is also just a short trip North to Northgate Mall. There was nothing we needed that was not provided in the property. There are plenty of TVs and the internet was fast and reliable, beds were comfortable and they even provided beach towelsThe only drawbacks to the property were the inside steps are very steep. My adult daughter fell down the basement steps and it's a concrete landing. The off street parking is nice, but it is very tight and the real estate office next door often parks in the maneuvering space. I would definitely stay again if my travels bring me back to Seattle.

Comfortable home in a great location
This home was a great place for our family to stay during our vacation. The location was the best part. It is only a block away from some great restaurants, a bakery, and coffee. It is directly across the street from Green Lake, which has paths for walks and jogs. The house itself was beautiful. The only complaint was that the stairs to the upstairs bedrooms were quite steep which was not safe for our 3 year old, but it is an older home and these are normal stairs for this type of home. We would gladly stay again, and probably will.
