This was the perfect place for us to extend our work trip by a few days and enjoy the Tacoma area. It was extremely clean and had everything we needed. It was a little chilly for us at the end of May, even with the little heater, but there were plenty of blankets, so it worked out ok. You can definitely hear foot steps, toilet flushing, typing, etc from the floor above in the morning, so it might not be the best fit if you’re wanting to sleep late. But it was perfect for us because we planned to get up and head out to enjoy Tacoma, Gig Harbor, and Olalla Bay. I’d definitely recommend this hidden gem and would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect spot within walking distance of coffee, restaurants, grocery stores. The apartment was very welcoming with nice personal touches. You can hear a lot of noise from upstairs and the dog running around, but we were out most of our stay so didn’t bother us too much. Would recommend for your Tacoma stay!

The hosts were very friendly and communicative, and they’ve really thought of everything, including an electric blanket and noise machine in the bedroom. The place was extremely clean, and the kitchen had all we needed to cook meals. The second bedroom is actually just closed off with a screen and not a door, but that worked okay for our purposes. There was some noise from the owners above and the dog, but that was expected given the basement location. It was light and roomy feeling for a basement, and the carport was a nice bonus. Walking distance to cute shops and the farmer’s market. I’m sure we’ll be back!

Beth decorated the apartment which includes stunning photographs of local sites, taken by Christopher Petrich. She loves meeting new people so hosting a VRBO apartment is a great way to do just that.

Jim and Beth love dogs and currently have a German Shepherd.

Why they chose this property

We chose our home because we fell in love with the Proctor District in Tacoma, WA. Everything we need is right walking distance. Just about anywhere we go by car we can see the water. Puget Sound surrounds the tip of Tacoma and is a peaceful site we are blessed to see on a daily basis.

What makes this property unique

When we bought this house we knew that some day this space would become an apartment. We originally thought our daughter with special needs would live there to be close to us, but that is no longer the need. She is an adult now and living with assistance in her home. This space is now available for you!

Peace and quiet is one of the unique benefits of living in this area. The beauty that surrounds us instills tranquility.
