Thank you Jodie, for your thoughtful feedback. We're thrilled you enjoyed the location and views. We are committed to making improvements. We look forward to welcoming you back soon
The views and outdoor space are phenomenal. Quiet and serene location. Easy walk to the boat launch down the street and close to state parks. If traveling with multiple adults and like to cook, may want to bring better pans but other than that, home is well equipped. We would absolutely come back.
House was very clean and spacious. The description of the place very accurate. The host was very communicative and made sure that we knew they were available anytime to help with our stay. I know with the experience we had I will not hesitate to stay here again. Thank you for sharing your home.
A group of friends and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend at this house with breathtaking views of The Sound and Mt Rainer. Would love to visit again someday.
The sunrises with Mt. Rainier in view were spectacular and could be viewed from both floors. We found everything that we needed to cook and hang out enjoying the house.
Great view and overall a good getaway. Loved the sauna. The house needs to be stocked a but better (no paper towels or hand soap) and a bit more cleaning attention and some refurbs that the owner just needs to take care of.
We had a great time! The pool table and foosball table were a hit and the steam room was such a lovely perk. The reason we gave it a four instead of a five is because the interior stairs are pretty steep and having to go up and down between the entertainment space and full kitchen was not ideal. Overall it was a really nice spot and the views were beautiful. We'd stay here again for sure.
Our group of women friends has been getting together for a long summer weekend every year for almost 30 years now, so we've rented a lot of large houses!
Highs: location, location, location. The view is fantastic, the walk to access the water is quite reasonable, and the neighborhood is quiet and good for long walks. Sleeping arrangements were also pretty good for 12 adults, which can be challenging.
Not-so-highs: the kitchen on the main level (as expected) was a bit small (two cooks max at a time) and the pots, pans, dishes, etc. could use some refreshing and additions.
The property was perfect for our group of seven adults. There was plenty of space for us all to spread out and lots of space for us to spend time together. The views were amazing! We loved watching the sunrise in the morning and being able to sit together at the table and enjoy a meal while looking out over the sound.
Communication was good, however because it is rented through a rental agency the responses could be a bit slow and lacking depth at points. The kitchen was moderately well stocked, it definitely could do with an update on some cooking utensils but we were able to get by with what was there.
Overall we really loved the space and would definitely rebook!
We were called at 1000 PST to let us know we had no heat after traveling all day from NC. We arrived shortly after that. They tried to get someone out there the next day but could not. We cancelled and got a refund
great looking house wish we could have stayed
Stunning ocean view and a lot of games for the whole family
Seeing the ocean right when I woke up in the morning made a great start for the day. Foosball, pool table, mini-golf, different board games, and tree swing in front of the house made kids happy the whole day. The house is super clean. All the cooking
and dining stuff needed are there. There's even rice in the kitchen. And we all enjoyed the relaxing steam room at night. So the whole family love the stay. We walked to the boat launch spot and drove to other state parks nearby. Too bad it's not hot summer day yet for kayaking or boating. We will come back again in a few months. :)
Host Jean is great. Very prompt and easy to communicate.
Highly recommended!
The view and overall potential for this property is amazing but I have to admit I was let down by the cleanliness and lack of household staples.

Love love love the view and the property. It is well maintained with such thoughtful additions. Hottub and steam room were such nice add-ons. Made our trip more relaxing. The host was very good with their communication, even followed up throughout our stay, and made sure we had everything. I couldn't get enough of the views. I'm reducing one star because of the cleaning checklist for the checkout process. We had to finish the laundry wait until the washer cycle is finished and then transfer it to the dryer, do the dishes(and place them back where we found them), pick up trash from all rooms, and throw them at the end of the driveway. This requires 1.5 hours of set time during checkout plus there is an additional cleaning fee. Maybe this is just me who finds it too much to do when I'm there on vacation for 2 days. I would prefer to start the dishes and laundry but waiting for them to be completed consumes time. But the listed inconvenience would not stop me from going there again or referring to my friends. Because it is absolutely worth it.
This house is amazing! It was wonderful for our group of 3 families. The view was incredible and the kids loved the game room. The steam room was luxurious and there was also a hot tub there which was a nice surprise. It was a perfect place to watch the sunrise.
This property was everything we could have hoped for. The game room kept everyone entertained endlessly, the two decks offered incredible views of mt Rainer and location was private and quiet. Serene weekend we will absolutely do again!
