Very pleasant stay

We enjoyed our stay at Vince's in Green Lake. Nice quiet neighbourhood. Check-in was easy. We had our own privacy in the appartment. Apartment with a nice decor. We would definitively return and recommend it.

Cutest neighborhood!

Lovely home with a lot of thoughtful amenities (Q-tips, lotion, etc.). We spent a quick night to decompress after an Alaskan cruise before we flew home, it was the perfect place to relax! You can walk to a cute area to eat or pick up wine/food just a few blocks away or walk to the Woodland Zoo within a 1/2 hour. Just walking around and looking at the gorgeous Craftsman and Victorian homes is a delight. Enjoyed dinner and a glass of wine on the large front deck. We were there on a warm summer day (about 85 degrees) and because there is no central air, it was very warm inside. There is a portable air conditioning unit upstairs, so you can make the master pretty comfortable if you blast it, but the loft bedroom never cooled down enough to use. I liked that there were instructions all over the house - so refreshing! If you stay, check you email after you check in because they will send you a link to all of the house instructions. Great idea IF you check your email. We didn't. A simple laminated QR Code in the house that takes you to the instructions would solve this issue. Overall, a lovely house in a beautiful neighborhood that lets you experience life outside of downtown Seattle. .

Beautiful stay close to the lake

My child wants to move into this VRBO full-time if that tells you anything! We loved the well-designed space and especially loved that the property was dog-friendly which enabled us to bring our best buddy on the trip too. The location is superb with coffee shop and lake all walking distance and there was easy street parking. The owners were very communicative should we need anything (we didn't, the rental had everything we could have needed). Also, the beds and linens were incredibly comfortable! Highly recommend and we'll be back next time our travels take us to Seattle.

1 week stay at Bird House

Incredible location and good home base to branch off from and experience Seattle for a family of 4 or less. Vince was responsive to all of my questions The only drawback was my interactions with Aardvark rental properties who were also involved with the billing and providing information about the rental. This added layer of bureaucracy made the process more cumbersome than it had to be. Granted I am new to dealing with them so it could have been user error
