We were visiting for a regional swim championships. Location was great. It’s only a 10 minute drive. The house was super comfortable, especially the beds, which all had Tempur-pedic mattress toppers. Tim, the manager, was very helpful anytime I had a question and usually got back to me within 10 minutes.. I would definitely stay here again!

Summer vacation in Seattle

It felt very home like and comfortable. Lots of kitchen tools to make most meals and finding the baby gate was a bonus. Will recommend to friends. Especially enjoyed it was close to every major store or restaurant.

Great spot for small groups

The backyard is a beautiful oasis everyday for coffee! As a family of 4, we probably needed that 2nd toilet (it's a 1.25 bath), but the ease of the bedroom and bathroom area made it doable. The full kitchen is terrific! We enjoyed how quickly you could get around the area from this location.

This is a nice property. There is only one bathroom, although on VRBO it's listed as two bathrooms. Bedrooms are upstairs with a living room, small kitchen and eating area downstairs. Garden is lovely and a nice place to hang out. There was lots of construction going on while we were there, there is a new housing development going on behind the property, so it was a little noisy from 7:00 to 4:00 p.m. You definitely do get airport noise in the evening with jets going over every few minutes. House was really clean, the owner, Tim was a very nice person and it's awesome to any requests we had. We had a pleasant 2 weeks in Federal Way while visiting family. The place is pet friendly which is a definite plus and the yard is fenced in so the dog is quite safe.

Thanks Barbara, corrected the bathroom number mistake- meant it one way but I see how it could be taken. Thankfully I find the plane noise is not quite as bad as you said(: Blessings, TIM

Upon arriving the host met me outside as soon as I got there. He resides in the adjoining apartment. There is a driveway and a small gravel area in front for guests. Not sure if it's the plants in front or the previous owners had cats, but there is an odor. He does allow dogs for a fee but was concerned about dog hair on the couch. There was a lot of decorations all around the place. We had to be careful where we placed our belongings. There is an old candy machine with candy, not sure how old. There were quarters in the machine, so be careful of little ones. The kitchen cupboards were full of dishes and kitchen equipment. There was a lot of food items in a cupboard, I'm assuming leftover from previous guests. The bathroom is located upstairs. The laundry room is a shared room that's outside in a room connected to the place. You have to change the plug before using. The pillows are not super comfortable, I suggest bringing your own. There is one AC unit located upstairs in the master bedroom. The downstairs doesn't get too bad as we kept the doors open frequently to allow airflow. There was plenty of chairs and seating for the family and guests, we had 9 people total at one point and no one was without a seat. The backyard was nice and it was comfortable to be outside. We were asked to be quiet after 8 p.m., so we couldn't spend as much time outside as we would have liked.

Nice place to stay

We stayed here for 13 nights with our three kids and everything was awesome! It is a very clean, comfortable, fully equipped home located in a quiet place about 20-30 minutes drive to Seattle and Tacoma attractions. Tim was very hospitable and helpful, he promptly responded all our requests.

Convenient last-minute refuge for a family!

We booked this rental under short notice because we had to move out of our home earlier than we intended to and needed to stay in the area. This cozy home was in a pretty convenient spot and worked really well for our needs. Our host Tim was very hospitable and accommodating and always responded to messages promptly. We had to modify our booking and extend our stay, and he made the experience hassle-free. Definitely recommend this space for any person or family who need to stay close to the Seattle area.

Thanksgiving Blessing!

Thanks to Tim and his townhouse, we were able to meet up with our youngest daughter, husband and children before they left for an assignment in Korea. It was a very special Thanksgiving that would not have been possible without "the kitchen with every possible tool" and Tim's home with plenty of space!!

Nicely located and comfortable with ample parking. Tim is attentive and assists as needed only.

All the basic comforts and a full kitchen with suburban location close to many metro area stores. Central location in south Puget Sound makes it great for families or several folks. We were 3 guys in the area for scuba event and could not have picked a better place as it was only a 5 minutes drive from our site to the dive site at beautiful Redondo Beach. Will certainly stay again when this event is again scheduled.
