A classic Pacific Northwest setting awaits at this three-bedroom home in University Place, where you'll be treated to evergreen views of the surrounding neighborhood that reach all the way to Puget Sound. Enjoy parks, museums, golf, a zoo/aquarium, a casino, and scenic routes - all within 10 miles of your home.
This two-level home enjoys a reverse floor plan that brings the main living spaces upstairs to maximize the view and the wonderful natural light. The cozy, carpeted living room has comfortable furnishings and an entire wall of windows; it opens to a bright dining space and a fully appointed kitchen with every essential appliance. Sliding glass doors lead outside to a spacious, wrap-around deck; there's also a second deck off the rear bedroom with a gas grill and a table for outdoor dining.
At night, you can retreat to the den downstairs to pile on the soft sofa, play board games, or watch Netflix favorites on the flatscreen TV. The primary bedroom is on the ground floor as well, offering a private bathroom with a clawfoot tub (and a hand-held shower) and direct access to a secluded garden patio. The other two bedrooms and one full bathroom are upstairs on the main floor.

Many wonderful additions such as a well stocked kitchen with snacks and cleaning supplies! We were thrilled. The bedding was clean and comfortable. The AC was hard to figure out, but we did it! :) Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Check-in
No complaints about property, was offered early check in because of flight times. Arrived at 2:00pm and sat in driveway until 4:00 because the “rental wasn’t yet ready” even though no other guests or cleaners were there. Left a day early, won’t use this company again.
The property was exactly what we needed, we were 3 adults playing in a golf marathon at Chamers Bay. The
3 bedrooms all had very comfortable beds. We did not cook, but the kitchen was well stocked. The pictures do not do the property justice, it is much nicer than shown. Very clean, very quiet, and provided everything and more than we were expecting.

Difficult dealing with large property manager. Very beureacratic. No one had authority to do anything. Infant was sick and early check in was important. Watched the cleaning crew leave before noon but property manager said early checkin was someone else’s responsibility so had to wait until 4. Never had such a bad experience. Will NEVER rent a Vacasa managed property again.
We really enjoyed our stay. We gave our daughter and her family the code and when i got there was told it was the perfect house. When we got up on Saturday morning the weather was awesome. We weren't there much, but
while we were it was great. Oh and my husband enjoyed the trailmix. All in all the house was beautiful and we appreciated it. I have it saved for future reference.

Cozy home with a view
This great house was very clean, had amazing beds, comfy sofas, high end kitchen amenities. It was in a great neighborhood walking distance to whole foods and trader Joe's and very close to chambers bay golf course. The space was cozy and spacious and in a quiet neighborhood. Spacious backyard and plenty of parking. Hosts were very accommodating and
