  We stayed in this lovely Montlake home for the second time. It feels like our home in Seattle. The location is perfect, the management company is easy to communicate with. They are able to address any needs promptly. We would highly recommend Sea to Sky Rentals and this Montlake house in particular. The property is clean, quiet and comfortable in a perfect location.

  a guest from Sunnyvale, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We stayed at the bungalow for 1 week and it was a great place for our family. The downstairs bedroom had a cute playhouse and toys which our son loved. The media room was perfect for watching movies. The master suite on the top floor was very spacious. It is centrally located so it was easy to get downtown or the Eastside. The home decor was beautiful - hard to believe it was all left there for a rental - usually rentals have very plain furniture. This 'bungalow' could've easily accommodated 6 people comfortably (even though we only had 3). We also had to cancel our original trip due to a family emergency and the reservation staff was very understanding and allowed us to reschedule within a year.

  This place is well-maintained, tastefully decorated, located in what is surely one of Seattle's prime neighborhoods, and has a beautiful garden to boot! My large family of eight fit comfortably and enjoyed a stay to remember. From start to finish, the Sea to Sky process for renting their Montlake bungalow was easy and efficient. I have zero complaints and look forward to renting this or one of their other Seattle properties in the future.
  
  You WILL be surprised at the spaciousness of this property! Pictures you've seen online don't do it justice.

  We stayed here for a wedding and couldn't be happier. Everyone from our group loved the house and the serenity of the neighborhood. Getting downtown (and out of town) were extremely easy and while we were at first skeptical of renting a house, it turned out very well. I would recommend this property to anyone staying in the Seattle area.

  Montlake is a great location for a visit to Seattle! We found the house perfect for our needs. Hubs and I took the bedroom suite upstairs, and my Mom had a bedroom and bath on the main floor. Plenty of room for kids downstairs, and don't miss the playhouse! Lovely yard and view from the back deck.

  This house was great for our needs. We were there for our son's graduation from Seattle University.We had family and friends coming in from out of town. We were able to have a BBQ there at the house after the graduation. The location was pretty close for all the SU grads to stop by for a burger. It was perfect for our needs and I especially liked the check in and out process. I have stayed at other properties where it is a hassle to get the keys and get checked in. This was great ...it was all ready to go when we arrived! Would recommend this place for a relaxing stay in Seattle.

  We had a fantastic stay! We were five couples from all over the US who hadn't seen each other in a couple of years, in town for another friends wedding, so this was an ideal arrangement for us - staying in separate hotel rooms would not have been the same! Booking and paying was painless, the house was beautiful. I would highly recommend this home and Sea to Sky Rentals to anyone. Thank you!

  a guest from Fullerton, CA recommends this vacation rental

  The Montlake Craftsman house worked out perfectly for our family group of ten, four kids and six adults. It was a great location for attending a wedding in the Wallingford area. The outside deck provided additional living space amidst flowers and berries in the back yard. We enjoyed exploring the Arboretum and Interlaken Park in the wonderful Montlake neighborhood.
  
  The only room for improvement I would mention is the water pressure for taking showers was weak. This was particularly apparent when we we all trying to get ready for the wedding--not surprising for a charming older house. But everything else was great. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking implements. The house was very comfortable. I would definitely stay there again if the need arose. Sea to Sky Rentals was very helpful when we got locked out of the house and sent someone right over to help us.
  Beats a hotel in every way, anytime!!!! Especially when traveling with little ones.

  We happened to be in Seattle during one of the biggest snow storms in 20 years, and found the property to be comfortable and accomodating for our family with three small kids. The yard was just littered with snow men by the time we departed. Just a small disappointment: Low Water pressure put a "damper" on a relaxing shower. Downstairs Bathroom heater did not work, so the bathroom was also very cold.
  Don't be discouraged... this is a great house to relax in.

  the upstairs shower was unworkable. There was absolutely no water pressure, and the fixture to divert water from the faucet to the shower head worked very poorly, at best. Taking a shower, washing hair was an ordeal because there was just a bare trickle of water. The downstairs bathroom was better, but the water pressure was also poor there and the temperature varied widely during the shower. I contacted Sea to Sky after my stay to address with them, but never received a reply to my email.

  Several members of our family (including a baby)enjoyed the Craftsman Cottage while attending our son's wedding. Overall, the accomodations and the vist were very good. Only two recommendations for improvement. The tv downstairs did not work, apparenty because the previous visitor had pulled the cable oout of the wall. It could be easily repaired, but not while we were there. Only the upper level bedroon has an air-conditioner, and it is pretty weak. In August it was very hot. We were told that the house was air-conditioned, but that is really only partially true.

  Although we were gernally happy with the rental, and hope to visit again, we wanted to call your attention to the upstairs shower which should be replaced with a good mixing valve. It worked very poorly - water going from hot to cold while using. Probably does not pass code, and could be a liability for you.

  Had a good time at the house. My wife and I used it as a central location to explore Seattle. We wanted to stay out of downtown because we live in Miami Beach and wanted to see some trees and greenery. The house has a lot of little good surprises. We only went in two rooms of the house because we were out most of the time. Nice house and easy access to downtown.
