This stunning 3,000 sq. ft. home offers panoramic views of Puget Sound, Fox Island, and the Olympic Mountains from multiple rooms — the perfect setting for family gatherings, golf trips, or a peaceful getaway.

Downstairs, enjoy a game room with a multi-game table (ping pong, foosball, air hockey), a large selection of board games and a table to play on, some toys for younger children, a few books, and an additional lounge space with a TV to watch something different than upstairs plus a bedroom and bathroom.

The fully stocked kitchen is designed for cooking and connection. Start your mornings at the coffee bar, then take advantage of the KitchenAid mixer, immersion blender, slow cooker, rice maker, and fun extras like the waffle maker and ice cream maker. With bakeware, cookware, utensils, and even a cocktail mixing set, you’ll have everything you need to make your stay deliciously easy.

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.

Lovely large view home where the host has thought of everything you may possibly need. Top notch cleanliness and expertly stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Excellent and timely communication from the host Emmy during our stay. Our ladies group has stayed at a number of rental homes and we all felt that this was the best one yet!

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!

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.

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.

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.

Family Get Together

We had the best time in Tacoma for our yearly family get together. The house is welcoming and comfortable. We loved that pretty much everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom, the playroom downstairs was a huge hit with the little one. Lots of thought has gone into making sure everything has been provided to make your stay comfortable, down to the coffee corner, well stocked kitchen, bathrooms, indoor and outdoor games, umbrellas. There was plenty of room for gathering as well, comfortable couches and outdoor table. The decor is relaxing and makes you feel right at home. Emmy, is an amazing host, great at communicating, responsive, and always making sure you will have the best of stays. This is by far the best house we ever rented.

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.

Stunningly gorgeous!!!!

This was our first time to the Pacific Northwest. We are here to visit our son for eight days. Having a beautiful home to stay and made it all much more wonderful. The views are breathtaking and the home had everything you could possibly need. In all our years of traveling, this was probably one of the most beautiful, well-maintained homes we’ve ever stayed in. Check in and check out was so easy. And the home’s owner could not be more kind and welcoming! We will definitely be staying here again when we come back to visit our son in the future. Amazing!

About the host

Hosted by Emmy

Host profile image
I'm a perfectionist and take pride in this home I've set up for your stay. I remodeled and decorated with as many little touches for a memorable time together.

Why they chose this property

My sister and mom live in University Place. I wanted a home that was mobility friendly for my mom to come over and eventually for my husband and me to retire in. It's a in a quiet residential neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

The views from inside and out of the home are beautiful. The main level is step free and going downstairs is optional (game room). The home is located just 1 block from the park with a playground and walking paths with views of the water. If you walk far enough, you will get to the beach access. It's just a couple minutes drive to the the Chamber Bay Golf Course building and restaurant.
