Great gathering spot
My friends and I stayed here during a trip to support a friend whose mother had just passed. It was a great place to reflect, laugh, and cry. We loved sitting on the deck and outdoor table/chairs to take in the view and the beautiful sunsets, and by the fireplace at night when it got chillier. We also enjoyed the foggy mornings, with the sounds of the foghorn from the lighthouse. This place was just what we needed -- a serene gathering spot, but not too far from great restaurants in Tacoma.

We stayed here while visiting for a wedding. The location is great, the owner was super friendly, responsive and accommodating. The property has almost anything that is needed (just missing more mixing bowls in kitchen). Besides that minor thing everything else was perfect. We highly recommend this place and would stay again.

Beautiful sunsets
We really enjoyed an intimate family gathering with beautiful Sunsets. The location was great for our purposes and we found time to relax and unwind and hike catching up over coffee and nice meals. We chose to use the kitchen to prepare our own meals instead of eating at restaurants all weekend. The kitchen was equipped with all the things we needed to be able to cook. That made our experience more enjoyable with several family members with different food sensitivities and allergies. We did notice that the kitchen could use a few polishing touches, like a knife sharpener, some new pots and pans, and some minor reorganization. None of these things took away from our experience, and could really set the next guests up for an even better time. We did notice ants throughout the house. The host got back to us right away and let us know that it’s not a problem because they were

Beautiful views, but listing not accurate
This property had beautiful views and multiple areas to gather with the family. Unfortunately, the listing says the bedrooms all have king size beds and a Queen downstairs. The main floor bedrooms only had queen beds and the basement had a full-size bed. The larger beds were part of the reason I chose this property, so I was unhappy with the incorrect listing info. The host wanted us to open doors to cool down the house, but there are no screen doors or screens on windows and bugs were abundant. This would be a good home to visit when it is not so hot outside!

Fantastic Sunsets
We stayed here for a week. The home was spacious with bedrooms on multiple levels. The master bath had an amazing shower along with double sinks. We planned on cooking outside on the grill. The existing grill was no longer working, but David (property owner) delivered a brand new grill the very next day. The sunsets looking out over the water and behind the mountain view were gorgeous as advertised. The home had a nice yard, plenty of outdoor seating, lots of flowers and even a raspberry bush in the front with ripe berries. We’d definitely stay here in the future.

SPECTACULAR
Start with the drive in, you think you are in the wrong area, but when you arrive, the view in person is better than the picture in the description of the property. Homey, inviting, relaxing, mesmerizing views. If you are going for vacation, this time of year was just sheer BLISS. If you are looking at this property, do not pass it by. The property owner even checked in with us to make sure we were enjoying our stay and if there was anything we needed. So gracious. Not going into too much detail, David went above and beyond for a request we had, as I was visiting my daughter that I had not seen in 2+ years. We are not letting anymore time go by, we are already planning for another visit to see my daughter in 2 months, if given the opportunity, we know where we will be staying. Need to mention, my daughter has a large service dog, weight not an issue with the owner. If I may just add a personal note to others; a service animal is a vital part to a veteran, disabled person, blind, etc., please do not use your "family animal" claiming a service animal just so you can take them on vacation. A service animal has specialized training, if your animal is on the furniture, it is a family pet. Other than my rant, this home is an A+.

Horrible communication with host
When we first booked this property there was an error in the price of the booking. And that's understandable - stuff happens. However, instead of refunding our deposit the host spent the whole week negotiating, saying a refund was processed, then changing his mind, back and forth, and all with no resolution. Then, on the morning we were supposed to arrive, the host cancelled our stay...and still without refunding our deposit. So I really don't know how the property itself is, but the host was especially difficult to work with.
