For the Little Ones!

Adorable cottage with obvious creativity and a focus on readers, especially the little ones. It is the perfect spot to land and visit with others.BYO items like coffee, lotion, and if you are 5’ ish and over 60, a mirror!Be prepared to make a high climb on slippery footing to exit the vintage clawfoot tub.

Adorable

It's hard to find good kid-friendly places to stay, but this place was perfect. The themed rooms were well executed and my kids loved it. It was perfect for our family of 5.

Charming

We loved the themed stay and everything is within walking distance. Our kids read books the entire time and found books they didn’t have at home.

Such a fun visit!

The house was amazing, the kids loved the themes and SO MANY books to read! The location was also great, walking distance to the beach, great restaurants, with parks & playgrounds just a block away. The proximity to the shuttle for taking a water taxi to downtown Seattle was another great bonus. We can’t wait to come back!

Unique stay in Alki

If you have kids who love to read, this is a wonderful spot. The house is old, so it’s a bit quirky, but generally well-provisioned. We stayed with 4 adults and a toddler. The house would work best for one family with kids, with parents in the Harold room and kids in the Wild Things. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed, although note, no dishwasher. It was a wonderful location - a 5 min walk to Alki and all it has to offer. We were pleased with the house and would stay again if we were traveling without Grandma and Grandpa!

Not a storybook ending for our family

I’m sorry to say we won’t be staying at the storybook house again. We were so excited as the theme is great for kids! It started with the lack of parking when we first got there - the listing said 1 designated parking spot, but when we got to the house - there was no spot. I called Vacasa and they said it’s not designated - it’s first come first serve street parking (that was mentioned for the first time in the email you receive the day before - past the cancellation window - I had not gotten the email the day before as we were traveling and got everything else In text message) after many calls and “chat” messaging I was told someone from the local team would call me. No one ever did. I would note when we got back to the house from dinner (we had 3 hungry children with us when we got there), there was the spot that was “designated” available. We never had another problem parking in the “designated” street parking. But never heard from Vacasa again. We also had a plumbing issue with the one toilet - never heard from them either. We just dealt with it. Beware there are 2 chairs at the kitchen table - if you are planning to eat at the same time bring your own. Luckily they did leave 2 tower fans - but it did not appear the windows in the front room open. There was only 1 screen on 1 window - so if you don’t mind bugs or spiders - feel free to open the rest. It really is a cutely painted house in a great location, but there are other options that would be better.

Cozy and Creative Stay with Some Quirks

The house is unique in that it features special decorations, with each room inspired by a classic book. We appreciate the owners' effort in remodeling the house and their attention to detail in creating a literary-themed experience—we love it!Another positive aspect is the location; it's very close to the beach, great restaurants, and the water taxi that takes you to downtown Seattle.However, we want to inform future renters that this is an old house, and there is a noticeable smell. The manager explained that it’s natural due to the house’s age. It was difficult for us on the first day, but we eventually got used to it.

Spring break

Things were greatly decorated. Underneath and between the couch cushions need to be cleaned .We found popcorn and hair , puzzle pieces under the couch. The chairs in the kitchen were cute .Bench And 1 pink chair is very unstable . We found dishwasher soap, no dishwasher. Oven door was very low, as if broken . Dishes were slightly unwashed, previous food stains . Needed potholders and trash bags . Vent under the kitchen table kept popping off we slept very well And safe from the cold. Great quiet location.Thank you.

Perfect place to bring kids - location great for parents, too!

We loved our stay at storybook house. Parking was easy but we didn’t need to drive anywhere because it’s so close to everything on Alki. Beds were comfortable and it sleeps like more than a two bedroom. Kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook. We also loved being able to sit on the back porch inside the fenced space. Will definitely be making another trip back to storm watch!
