We did a last-minute siblings weekend with no kids and had a wonderful time at this rental! Great house (lovely beds), small but private backyard, super fun tabletop video games, all the amenities you would expect and more. Definitely recommend :)

These are just a few of our favorite things :) We love creating great experiences for our guests in this beautiful home.
We stayed for four nights while visiting family in the area. The house is well maintained and well equipped. The view of the water and the Olympia mountains from the rear deck is fabulous. It is well located for our needs. The drive through Dash Point Park is beautiful. It is well located for the sights in Tacoma, such as the Museum of Glass and the LeMay auto museum.
