A great spot close to the Tacoma centre. Clean, quite and a pullout bed was perfect for our group. The air conditioning kept the place nice and cool and the stocked coffee machine was perfect.

The place was just perfect for my friends and I who were in town for a long weekend. It is close to everything, even within walking distance. The house was spacious enough that everyone fit, but we weren’t on top of each other. Beds were very comfortable too and the kitchen was well equipped. Definitely a great stay!

We stayed at this property while dropping our daughter off at Pacific Lutheran. Location was good as we needed to get her some stuff for her dorm, and there were plenty of places close by. House was very neat and clean and had everything we needed. Would recommend!
5.0
Property is very close to all things necessary for an out of town stay. Easy freeway access but not on a busy road in a noisy area. Large box stores nearby as well as fun bar hopping close by. House has very nice beds and clean functional bathrooms. Kitchen has plenty of room to cook and hang out and a large private backyard. For once we found a house that has a well stocked kitchen as far as dishes, cooking and service dishes so you can actually prepare a meal.
5.0

Great place to stay in Tacoma
This was a very comfortable and nicely appointed home. It was equipped with everything we needed and then some.
The house was clean, updated and spacious enough that the 8 of us staying there didn't feel like we were on top of each other. Convenient location for driving to nearby places of interest. Restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores, Target, gas stations and the coast were located all within a short drive. Not necessarily a great neighborhood for walking, but it did not feel unsafe at all. Our host was responsive and helpful. We'd definitely stay here again.

If Could Give 6 Stars I Would!
What’s not great to say about this place. First off if you are visiting someone at University of Puget Sound it is a 4 min drive and 25 min walk! The house is so cute and well laid out! The beds are comfortable, the kitchen easy to cook in and entertaining areas perfect for feeding college kids! Also the communication with the owner was amazing! She was so accommodating and pleasant to communicate with! This in our new go to place when visiting my niece at college!

Great but minor snags
Overall, my experience with this stay was great! However, these small things were a bit annoying. Others may not be bothered by these but wanted to list them for possible areas of improvement.
1. The TV and DVD player instructions were incorrect (what input to use for each). This may have been because there was only one HDMI cord and the directions indicated that they each had their own. I was able to just switch the cord from the cable box to the DVD to get it to work but that shouldn't have been necessary according to the directions.
2. The DVD remote was missing so even though we got it to turn on we couldn't select it to play from the main menu without the remote as there weren't any buttons on the DVD box for this - you had to have the remote. I texted the owner and asked about the remote and she said it should be there with the TV remote but it wasn't. I looked all around, under couches, in couch cushions, etc. and never found it.
3. The directions for the WiFi password weren't clear on where it could be found. It said living room but it was actually near the kitchen table above the coffee maker. I would consider that the dining room. "Above the coffee maker" would have been the perfect description for the location. I eventually got it off of the sticker on the router. The second day we finally noticed it above the coffee maker.
4. The WiFi password hasn't been changed from the default annoying, long string of letters and numbers.
Again, these are all minor things that we were able to work around but are also easy fixes.

Nice and Clean
This was more than we thought! From the outside it looks tiny but once you walk in it’s beautiful! Very clean, kitchen is well stocked with dishes etc. The bedrooms were perfect, the beds were comfy. This is definitely somewhere we would consider staying again.

Tacoma gem
Loved our stay in Tacoma. First time in this house but have stayed in Amy Jo’s other property a few houses away. It’s really just perfect and makes my visits to Univ of Puget Sound so relaxing and enjoyable. We’ve already booked this house for graduation weekend!!!

Great accommodation
We came to visit my daughter at UPS! This is the second time we’ve stayed at this location! There are certainly cuter/nicer neighborhoods convenient to UPS but the house is perfect. It is clean, a fully equipped kitchen, and lots of sleeping options :)

Great stay in a beautiful N. Tacoma home
My family and I stayed here for 2 nights. There was plenty of space for my husband, myself, and our 3 kids. The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and in a convenient location for fun restaurants, Point Defiance, Chambers Bay, and the highway. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals for the family. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We stayed with 5 adults and 5 kids and even though the house doesn't look that big we all fit comfortably. The house and grounds were gorgeous and the area was close to everything. Highly recommend.

Wedding Weekend!!!
We could not have been happier with our accommodations! The VRBO was 1/2 mile from the venue, which made trips home quick and easy. It was a quiet street and a lovely neighborhood. The house is very quaint, had everything we needed, and accommodated 6 adults easily. We all had plenty of room and expectations from the homeowners were simple and easy to follow. Amy Jo was easy to contact and got right back to me with recommendations for the area and to answer questions that made it easy to know if we needed to bring any items from home before we traveled there. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality!!

Conveniently located comfortable house
The house design with a large open space and three bedrooms suited our needs. We rented the house to host a family gathering post Thanksgiving. Everyone was comfortable and could easily socialize. The house was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. We were able to make and serve soup to 16 people. The location was also central to points of interest and walking in the neighborhood was enjoyable.

Wonderful home. The owner was exceptionally gracious and accommodating
Beautifully remodeled, well stocked home. It is close to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment in Tacoma as well as, easy access to the interstate. I rented this home for my daughter (the bride) and her bridesmaids rather than placing them in a hotel. It was a great place for the girls to have some private time together and relax the morning of the wedding to have hair and makeup done. Gorgeous home, great value. Loved our stay.
