Green Lake Getaway - Modern Comforts, Ideal Location - A Great Seattle Escape!

The owners were wonderful, kind, quick to respond, and went out of their way to help us. The home was beautiful and airy, but it did have some issues. Most of the house was clean, but we did find some things that were unpleasant. Also, the windows had no screens which posed a problem at night with the bugs (yes we did get some mosquitos). Fans were readily available, but it was still stuffy. In addition, there was an issue with the internet, but that was resolved after a day. Of importance, if you have any issues with your occupants not being able to climb a lot of stairs, you may want to reconsider this home. I did not fully view the home and my elderly occupants struggled to get up and down the stairs which were a bit steep, and stairs without a railing made getting down to the sidewalk especially difficult. There is no hot tub (as seen in one of the pictures I viewed). Also, the lower half of the home (basement apt) is rented out at the same time (we did not know this). A listing of supplies provided or not provided would be helpful (laundry soap, dish soap, etc.) so one does not need to do unplanned shopping. A blender and mixer would be nice. Overall though, we did enjoy our stay. The location was great which provided for easy walking to local eateries and the lake. Again, I can't stress how nice the owners were and how much they did help us.

Five adults stayed at Julie and Mark’s rental home. The house was clean and good size! Kitchen appliances were high end. Deck was big! Used the nice grill one time as we were too busy eating out! In addition to a parking space at the rental, parking was easy for extra car. Owners Julie and Mark were so nice and very accommodating to our needs and our questions. The house was about two blocks from Green Lake. We took advantage by walking several times! Hope the rental home will be available on our next trip!

Our family of 4 had an awesome stay. We walked/jogged or biked Green Lake most evenings and watched the sun set. After a long day of activity, we had relaxing dinners in the very well-equipped kitchen. We had a very minor problem with the washing machine and Mark was over in a few minutes to fix the problem. Communication with Julie was easy. Would definitely stay again.

I came with my wife and two daughters. The house is beautiful and we enjoyed ourselves. Easy to catch a bus that runs frequently just a block away.

Our family of 4 plus 2 grandparents thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house is lovely, comfortable, spacious, and very well equipped. It felt like a home away from home. Located just two blocks from Green Lake, it’s easy to get out to enjoy the fresh air - and you can enjoy a view of the lake from the upstairs master bedroom. We’re Seattlites living elsewhere currently and returned for a graduation so we have an insiders perspective of how great this house and location are. It’s far enough away from the bustle to enjoy the quiet and close enough to get to the zoo, Whole Foods, great local restaurants, and easy to get around to quintessential Seattle sites downtown and elsewhere. Highly recommend this house.

We stayed at this VRBO for a girls trip that included myself, my mom, my sister and my 2 year old daughter. The house is in the perfect location! It’s in walking distance of Greenlake as well as a coffee and donut shop. The Green lake area has many places to eat, and a Safeway grocery store close by. The house is very clean and well put together. There are 3 bedrooms - 2 up and 1 downstairs that supplied plenty of space for us. The kitchen has beautiful updated appliances! The owner also provided us with some wine and desserts - much appreciated! The back deck is beautiful and has a great view of the lake. The backyard was also perfect for my little one to run around in. The owner was so helpful with giving us information about the area and the home as well. The neighborhood is quiet and felt very safe. We would absolutely stay here again!!

Worked out very well location wise and comfort wise. Plenty of room for 5 adults and 2 young children (they especially liked the lego room). Lovely walks around Green Lake and were able to get to downtown Seattle a few times for errands very easily. Had a great Christmas.

We gathered as a family of 4 to celebrate Thanksgiving in Seattle. This home is in a great location being a short walk to Green Lake, as well as being close to fun neighborhood dining, coffee and pubs. Getting downtown or to other parts of town was easy from this location. The home was beautifully decorated, very clean and the view of Green Lake from the master bedroom an added bonus. It was a nice set-up for spending time together when we chose to stay at home. We loved the fireplace. Julie was easy to communicate with and made us feel very welcome. We hope to return soon.

My family and I had a great time. Great location, nice neighborhood. Owner was very responsive when we had questions. Would definitely stay there again.

Property was accurate in location, layout and amenities. The ownership even brought over a grill, as weather was still good outside. The property was clean and well maintained. The ownership provided super customer service during the entire stay process. The area is very walkable and safe. Great place to stay with family.
