The house is amazing: comfortable, roomy, and in pristine condition. It is in a perfect location, especially if you're doing anything in North Tacoma, like the Sound to Narrows run. Rachel communicates clearly and provides great instructions.

This home was an absolutely haven for our family with two kids! It was quiet, clean, centrally located, well-stocked with essentials, and just so beautiful! We were grateful for the incredible air conditioning, which kept us comfortable during a heat wave, and thoroughly enjoyed the spacious backyard. The host was kind and prompt with her responses. I have zero complaints! We loved every moment, and will surely be back again soon.

In town for a family gathering. This house was centrally located & just perfect for our time there. The remodeling remained true to the character of the home, but provided an updated atmosphere. I took home “ideas” for my own little house. We were very pleased & would definitely stay again if it is available. Susan

Lovely. This home is wonderful, comfortable and a great place to enjoy time in Tacoma. The care taken in revisioning this space is apparent in every room. Not often do you find a space that feels this warm and comfortable.
Warmth in every room.

Lovely house; very clean and comfortable. The location is nice and we enjoyed walking the neighborhood. Beds were comfortable. It would have been nice to have an upstairs bathroom, but otherwise worked well for us. Easy street parking.
