Views from porch and windows are beautiful. Host was responsive and let us check in early. House could use updating. Upstairs bathrooms are in need of remodeling, especially the showers. Furniture looks nice however when u sit on the couch or chairs they uncomfortable from age, taking away from the enjoyment of the view. The porch upstairs needs usable furniture to enjoy the amazing view. The front guest bedroom frame should be replaced or removed as it squeaks so bad u wake up ur bedmate when u simply roll over. Home is nicely equipped with all of the necessities for a large family/group. Housekeeping was well done and appreciated! ![View](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/95aa7940-77d0-4c3b-8e79-9f9bb40c4f50-1756850133858.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Tracie H.

This property was so nice. The whole family came for our daughter’s graduation. There is room for everyone. We had 11 adults and a four year old and four cars (with room for at least two more). Grocery stores were very close by as well as restaurants and coffee shop. If you plan to do any cooking and have left overs, you may need foil, plastic wrap, or ziplocs. The coffee grinder and coffee pot were A+. We replaced a few skillets that were at the end of their life and were reimbursed! ##### Tabbatha W.

There were 7 of us including an infant and a 4 year old. We all loved having coffee on the porch every morning watching the ships go by. You can even see the top of Rainier on a clear day! The host, Annie, was incredibly responsive and attentive to our needs. Check in and checkout were smooth and easy. We really cannot say enough great things about this home and we hope to return in the future. One small thing— the train is pretty loud in the mornings so I’d recommend running the fan or bringing earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. ##### Ben G.

So many beautiful, old, well-maintained houses. Lovely neighborhood.6 minutes to 2 supermarkets across the street from each other. 6 minute drive to a walk along the shore and restaurants. 11 minutes to the History Museum.We saw fireworks in all directions on New Year's Eve. Wonderful time.The house is very roomy. Landlord says she'll add a desk which will be convenient. Landlord is super responsive.We couldn't get the Amazon Fire stick to work, and were stuck with regular channels and Youtube. Hope that access will be better for the next guest.Thank you! ##### Jennifer Stowe S. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### R. Joseph S. 27 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Views and Value This beautiful home is tucked away in Tacoma just above the Old Town area with expansive, panoramic views of Puget Sound, Brown’s Point, and Commencement Bay. As much as the listing talks about and shows pictures of the view, the descriptions and photos don’t do justice to the breathtaking vistas. The home is spacious with a nice bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor and the rest of the bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs. Two bedrooms upstairs share the expansive views you find from the main level living areas, and there is a balcony upstairs, as well as a large porch on the ground level. The home was immaculate and comfortable. Check in and out were a breeze. And Annie was very helpful and immediately responsive any time we had a concern. The location of the home is easy to find,near the end of a quiet and very narrow road. And from the home you can easily walk down the large hill to the water along Ruston Way, and there are several markets, restaurants, and coffee shops within a 5-10 minute drive. Overall, the value of the home is hard to beat. We can’t wait to stay here again next time we find ourselves in the Tacoma area. ##### R. Joseph S. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ---
