An important question for me when renting a vacation property is “would I do it again?” The answer for this property is definitely yes.My wife and I, our 3 adult children and their partners, and our 3 ½ year old grandson stayed for 5 nights in September. The house had ample room for all of us including gathering, cooking, sleeping, and baths. The view is gorgeous and was enjoyed by all. Large deck, clean grill, really all you would want for a family vacation.Some highlights:Very cleanAmple roomExcellent bath and sleeping arrangements2 nice large screen TV’sGreat laundry facilitiesPlenty of games and kids toysNearby to Whole Foods, Costco, TJ’sGreat park right next door with playground, walking paths, and a golf courseNearby restaurantsEasy access to coastal communities like Gig Harbor

We really enjoyed our time at this property with 3 generations spending the Labor Day Holiday. The unassuming and quiet neighborhood give way to a beautifully appointed home with large living space, comfortable bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms, and best of all the beautiful views from the large deck and living room. The kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals and lots of options for morning beverages.You are just a short walk to Chambers Bay public golf course with lots of trails, playground, and green space leading to the water. Emmy was communicative without being obtrusive and does a nice job of making the place feel like home.We would definitely consider a return with family or friends.

Absolutely amazing stay! Emmy, the owner, was exceptional with her communication from start to finish, making our trip smooth and stress-free. The views from the property were breathtaking, and the cleanliness was top-notch, making us feel right at home. If you're visiting the Seattle/Tacoma area, this is the place to book. We can't wait to come back for another stay. Highly recommend!

Exccellent Place

This house is one of the best we have rented. It was very clean, had all the amenities we needed, plenty of rooms and bathrooms and the view was excellent. We were happy with the location as it was very quiet and easy to get around the Tacoma area. Emmy was very responsive as we only ran into one issue with the hot water heater not functioning correctly. She was able to fix that issue remotely although we did have it happen again the next day. I would definitely recommend staying at this home as we enjoyed our time here.

Fabulous vacation house

We enjoyed our stay at this house and would happily stay there again. We loved the view of the water, and then it got even better when the weather cleared so that we could see the mountains. The house was spotlessly clean and comfortable, with calming decor throughout. There is off-street parking for multiple vehicles, and even access to the garage (so nice when it was raining). Plenty of restaurants just a short drive away. All in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing place to stay.

The home is beautiful. The location is amazing, beds are comfortable. We spent a lot of time on the porch enjoying the backyard and wildlife. We had an elderly adult and the ramp and low profile rugs made the main floor easy to navigate. He was very comfortable. My college kids loved the downstairs game room and their separate bathrooms. The bathrooms are wonderful. The living room was comfy and while the sofas were a bit low for our elderly family member, we all enjoyed lounging in that room when we weren’t outside to take advantage of that view.We didn’t cook a lot but we found everything we needed when we did. Labels on switch covers were so helpful. So much helpful communication from the owner. None of us wanted to leave. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend!

Amazing Vacation

Incredible views. This home helped make our vacation so amazing. To wake up and being able to have a cup of tea and look over the water was so relaxing. Eight of us stayed at the home, ages 12-84. There was plenty of space for us to spread out if we wanted to. Four bathrooms! Everything was so clean. Emmy responded immediately to any of my questions. Would definitely stay here again.
