Great find in Tacoma!

I have nothing but positive things to say about our stay here! The owners were friendly and personable. Their communication prompt and detailed. The unit was clean and comfortable. The location was perfect, close to lots of shops and to a great little trail (park) to walk to the water. Thank you for being a part of my first visit to Tacoma to visit family!

About the host

Hosted by Beth Moller

Jim is the craftsman who transformed this space into a beautiful daylight basement apartment. It is a charming cozy space created just for you. Jim's day job is working for a local candy company. He is originally from Denver, CO and moved to WA 2 years after marrying Beth. They have been married for over 30 years.
Beth decorated the apartment which includes stunning photographs of local sites, taken by Christopher Petrich. She loves meeting new people so hosting a VRBO apartment is a great way to do just that. She is fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) and has been an interpreter for several years. She grew up in Evergreen, CO.
Jim and Beth love dogs and currently have a German Shepherd.

Why they chose this property

We chose our home because we fell in love with the Proctor District in Tacoma, WA. Everything we need is right walking distance. Just about anywhere we go by car we can see the water. Puget Sound surrounds the tip of Tacoma and is a peaceful site we are blessed to see on a daily basis.

What makes this property unique

When we bought this house we knew that some day this space would become an apartment. We originally thought our daughter with special needs would live there to be close to us, but that is no longer the need. She is an adult now and living with assistance in her home. This space is now available for you!

Peace and quiet is one of the unique benefits of living in this area. The beauty that surrounds us instills tranquility.
