Great location, we were able to get around easily. Suggest a couple of recliners for longer stays. There is nothing else we needed for our extended stay, it was very delightful. Thank you for sharing your home.
Very nice being next to the lake in the middle of the city. All amenities are close by and it’s just a short trip to downtown. The kids loved all the games and the ping pong table.

Green Lake!
House was full of character and super comfortable. The park and lake across the street made the stay top notch. As my 5 year old said, We want to live in the house forever.
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.

Great location and spacious home
We had a lovely time. It was great being right across from the lake and going for a morning stroll before exploring the city, which was also not too far from the home.
If you have a low profile vehicle, be cautious approaching the driveway.
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.
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:)

Perfect location and setup for our family!
Highly recommend the home for families with teens and tweens! There was space for all of us to be in our own areas after a day out together. The kids loved the basement rec room and set up their gaming station and played games, watched movies and had plenty of fun with the table tennis. We made many meals in the well appointed kitchen. Sleeping rooms and bathrooms were great. Loved the architecture of the home and the mature green trees surrounding the house. We would definitely recommend!
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.

Ehhh
The home was OK, cleanliness could be improved. Our biggest problem was the fact that ants covered the upstairs and downstairs bathroom as well as the kitchen. Whenever we sat down on the toilet, they would crawl all over us. The game room and furniture were nice.
I rolled the dice and I lost. I knew the place didn't have air conditioning, but I booked it for the July 4th holiday anyway and it was in the low 90's. The upstairs was hot and stuffy, even with the windows open. The main level was ok, but some of the windows didn't open and there were no screens. The basement kept cool. I wish there had been some roll away beds down there. With a warming climate, it might be a consideration.
On the plus side, the location was great, the house was well appointed and decorated. Furniture and beds were comfy.
I would stay here again, but not in the summer.
Home is fairly standard for Green Lake area, and access to all of Seattle’s attractions is fantastic. Two very small bathrooms and accommodations were tight with 2 adults and 2 teenagers. Neither bathroom had ventilation and both had significant ant and moisture problems. Beds were borderline acceptable but could use replacement. Property was noisy during day due to being on busy street and intersection but peaceful at night. We didn’t use the kitchen at all, but did not seem well supplied if you intended to cook during your stay.
Overall we had a good stay, and the great location outweighed mildly disappointing accommodations. Would rent again, but for the price would consider other options first.
Kitchen was pretty well equipped. We had to disconnect the smoke detector while cooking as it sounded constantly. The ping pong table was a big hit. And we enjoyed the games. Bedding and bedrooms were good.
The main floor bathroom door doesn’t close properly (been repaints many times.) (Many of the doors don’t close properly.) and our 11-year-old kept getting stuck in it! Knobs on upstairs bathroom are loose. The stairs, to the basement with the laundry and ping pong table, are quite hazardous for seniors (door at the top opens inward and blocks the rail.)
The location was great, across from Green Lake it’s park surrounding and 3 mile lakeside trail. And, it’s around the corner from Duke’s! Great fish restaurant. All in all, we really enjoyed the home.
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.
The location is terrific and the house is wonderful except the main level bathroom. Ants are out of control, I had to rinse the walls and basin before getting into the shower. They are everywhere. There is also mold on the ceiling and stains on the wall. It really detracted from the rest of the house. It seems a very small investment could make this a five star rental.
Vacasa has not been a good host. Communication was poor - non responsive. I had one message that seemed AI generated, but no response to my queries. We started our visit with completely full trash cans for three full days before pickup. The recycling bin was also full and never picked up. Ants in the house. Cleaning was sub par.
Big house, great for large families or groups of friends. Lots of space and beautiful area near Seattle. Lots of activities and stuff to do inside the house. Very well set up!
Everything was perfect until our last night. The code was changed on the door and we were locked out in the cold with a babythe owner of this B&B will not give us any extra time to check out.We were never contacted and given a new code I had to climb in through a window due to all of this my son missed his flight because he couldn’t get his suitcase out of the house in time
