Sprawl out on a comfy sofa and two armchairs and enjoy a movie on the 55" TV. Unwind downstairs in the bonus living area equipped with a futon, a set of chairs, an electric fireplace, an art table, and a 42" TV. Granite countertops and stainless steel appliances shine in the well-equipped kitchen. Extras include a Keurig coffee maker, blender, and toaster. Sip coffee at the four-seat table in the kitchen.

Home is well decorated and is fully upgraded. Nice kitchen and nice rooms. Nice showers. Can use some cleaning of the walls to keep the home looking nice. Easy access to food and stores. The exterior rooms tend to hear a lot of street noise. Great place to stay with family.

Great location
Very nice house in convenient location. A few quirks, a few lamps missing light bulbs and the TV kept turning itself on even though turned it off multiple times (finally I just muted and ignored it). Clean and well stocked. Lots of steps, which is a bit challenging for elderly (we had an 86 year old in our party).

Shoreline WA stay
Property was very good fit for our group. Lots of room, nicely furnished. Had a very small issue with TV remote (no batteries) that was resolved very quickly by management. A couple of suggestions: - Provide dish towels in kitchen. Needed to wash some things daily (e.g. coffee pot) instead of using dishwasher - Add dresser or some type of shelves in bedrooms that did not have them. Overall, very pleasant stay.

Don’t book this house
Don’t book this house! The back deck and grill are disgusting and filthy making it unusable. The electric blinds don’t work and are permanently closed making it extremely dark inside and no light or view from outside. Vacasa asked if we wanted these Items looked at while we were there 5 nights but no one ever came.

Great location and comfortable home
Location: close to the city of Seattle and easy to drive to area towns and beaches. Interior: well appointed with consistent theme Beds: comfortable Exterior:. The deck was uninviting. It needed a power wash and stained. The grill was full of mold. Since the picture in VRBO showed the back deck as an inviting place to spend time, I was very disappointed. If the deck was as nice as the picture then I would have given 5 stars

Not ready for renting!
Broken oven,broken thermostat,broken remote blinds,burnt out light blubs, chipped plates, no air mattress as listed and the trash cans were full when we got there. And a snow shovel would have been useful. I did get a $165 refund for the oven I was trying to cook Christmas dinner without an oven and a thermostat that wouldn't heat the house over 68 degrees. And we were renting from Dec. 24th thur 30th. Not a good experience!

Comfortable convenient
My spouse, dog, and I stayed here for one week while our house is having work done. We have a few more weeks of rentals and we would have stayed another three weeks here if it had been available. The kitchen is big and modern, so if you like to cook, you'll enjoy it. Comfortable living room furniture and master bed. My husband worked from here for the week and had no issues with internet. There is a huge, and great, grocery store across the street called Central Market. It also has a large prepared-food section in addition to a very large asian grocery section. Plenty of restaurants nearby available by delivery services. Back yard is fully fenced. Some road noise from the side road, but not bad. Use the washer and dryer, both of which worked well. The one thing that would be helpful is to have a doormat inside the front door, otherwise it was a great stay.
