  This is a great place for a vacation stay in Seattle--nice location, fairly quiet and safe neighborhood, and enough room for our 3 person family.

  Darling cottage. Perfect location for me. Many plumbing problems but Sea to Sky always very helpful and prompt with solving them. Would definitely rent there again!

  Brenna S from Walnut Creek , CA recommends this vacation rental

  We enjoyed our stay. Having a little house made it convenient to entertain old friends as they could easily find parking and seating within. The house is very small, but space and storage are cleverly used and available so all was comfortable. The house also warmed up quickly after we first arrived, and we appreciated the abundance of books to help us wind down after our busy days. Thanks!

• The Fig Tree Cottage is a sweet, funky style cottage with a great location. We enjoyed our stay there; slept well and met a couple of the neighbors, who are very nice.The fig tree had ripe fruit, as well!

  I can't imagine finding a better place to stay when visiting Seattle, and that is why I hesitate giving such a good honest review... it makes it more likely others will book this location before I'm able to!

  We will definitely be asking for this place again if we get to spend some time in Seattle again in the future. The house is in a location where everything we needed was in walking distance, and the house was exactly what we were hoping to find. It gave us a good feel for what it would be like to live in Seattle as opposed to just visiting.

  A lovely little cottage that was perfect for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 infants- we loved the convenience of the second small space that was perfect for housing 2 pack-n-plays and the washer/dryer. Very convenient, kitchen not too well stocked though.

  a guest from Albuquerque, NM recommends this vacation rental

  The neighborhood and location were great! We were very satisified and would recommend this rental. Our only suggesion is to (vastly) improve the information in the notebook. We were traveling by bus and foot and there was very little info on the buses and connections. For example, provide the basics such as how you get downtown and to the airport. The only information pertained to the nearby mall, University Village, with no reference to a great local grocery within 5 blocks or the awesome local restaurants just around the corner. Also, the info on the trash pickup day is incorrect.

  a guest from Portland, OR recommends this vacation rental

  As soon as we walked in the front door we knew we had chosen the perfect place! From the warmth of the hardwood floors to the book lined built in shelves we knew this charming cottage would provide the relaxation we were looking for. The neighborhood extended a beautiful daily walk and we were within 5 minutes to some of the best shopping and local dining! And being so centrally located it took less than 15 minutes to get to all that downtown Seattle has to offer. Thank you for providing such a great home away from home!

  The house was just like exepted, clean and in a quiet neighborhood.
  
  One thing: the wifi wasn't password protected, it's ok for me but it was kind of slow, so maybe some neighbor use it?

    Thank you for letting us know about the internet. It is probably time to increase the speed so we will definitely look into it and we will also set up a secure network. We appreciate your feedback!

  This was our second stay at Fig Tree Cottage. We enjoyed both stays immensely. The location in the Bryant Neighbourhood is close to our friends, to bookshops and to restaurants. The house is great for a couple.

  This is a very quaint little cottage with all the basic necessities. The location is outstanding for anything you want to do in Seattle. Wonderful neighborhood with restaurants, UW, shopping all very close but still a fairly private spot.
  The property management company is wonderful. Specifically Brian. He responded immediately but mostly was kind, courteous and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

• Our time spent at Fig Tree Cottage was great. It really made the trip to Seattle more enjoyable. We started planning our next vacation to the cottage before we had even left Seattle to return home.

  We (me, spouse and baby) rented the Fig Tree Cottage on a weekend that I had a baby shower to attend. The location was fantastic as it was about 6 blocks from the shower location. Also very convenient to U Village. The house was cute and worked very well for us. It is very small, but comfortable. Much better than a hotel room in terms of being able to put our baby down to bed in her own space. Would rent it again.

  Deanna W from South Pasadena, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Really enjoyed our stay at the Fig Tree Cottage. Quiet neighborhood and pleasant environment. The yard needs attention and the foundation is sinking making the floors and counter tops not level, but these didn't interfere with our enjoyment. We never found
  the right channel for the DVD, but we didn't ask either. The beds were comfortable INCLUDING the pull out sofa bed! The micro wave didn't appear to be functioning, but that didn't cause us a problem. The cottage was charming and we had a wonderful time!

  Fig Tree suited us just fine - and the great weather helped enormously. We enjoy walking, for which the neighborhood was quiet, and the nearby and cottage facilities were good. Bus passes close by for those who prefer transport. The management dealt promptly
  with minor issues we had. It was an enjoyable stay.

  a guest from McLean, VA recommends this vacation rental

  We were very happy with the house. It was good to be able to have a place where we could relax, cook our own meals, and do laundry. Coming from McLean, VA where the temperature was averaging about 100 degrees, we were a little concerned at first about
  the absence of air conditioning, but soon learned that it is not quite the necessity in Seattle that it is in Virginia.

  Anne S from Iowa City, IA recommends this vacation rental

  Our two weeks at Fig Tree Cottage were quite enjoyable. The location lent itself well to walking to nearby sights, grocery stores, the university as well as local restaurants. The lake was nearby making it easy to enjoy the trail both north and south. The house was cozy with necessities for two. We didn't use much of the kitchen facility, but the appliances were fairly new, clean and serviceable. One suggestion is to pay a bit more attention to the linens; the bed linens weren't nice and really not the right size for the bed and we needed to request more than one set of towels. However, our requests were met in a timely fashion - all in all, very helpful, courteous staff responsible for the house. We highly recommend Fig Tree Cottage.

  i would suggest coverings on the front door that you can not see through. at night you can see into the house soooo easily. also, in the back around the outdoor furniture i would love to see some white little lights hung around the trees.

  Steven R from Dulles, VA recommends this vacation rental

  Considering the considerable cleaning fee that is part of what we pay, it seems like the dire threats about leaving the kitchen in the same condition you received it etc. are overwrought. We are responsible tenants, and we believe that people should be expected not to trash a property, but perfect condition after a week's stay is asking a lot from people who have paid you a cleaning fee.
