This home is spacious and was well laid out for our family’s needs. The view of the sound is stunning, with a new and well appointed deck for enjoying it. The yard is large and had a swing set, slide and basketball/pickle ball court available. Our family had a great time meeting up there for a reunion.
The owner is responsive and warm, with good communications.
This property fit our family perfectly! We loved the sport court, and the view off the deck was amazing (sunsets every evening). The house is well equipped and very comfortable. Stephanie is a great communicator and all went smoothly. Highly recommend!
East meets west. Great location to enjoy time with family. GA family meeting with Vancouver BC family.
We were impressed with the views and all the space to spread out. The golf course/tournament was 5 minutes away. Grocery shopping and restaurants were really close.
Hostess was extremely communicative and shared multiple restaurants to try.
We felt like we were at home.
Seattle airport was around an hour away.

The view!!!!
Fantastic Property! Everything you’d ever need! Amazing Sunsets, great sport court... stocked kitchen! We created so many memories in the house for my daughters graduation from UOPS! Could have stayed another week! Thanks Stephanie
We were in Tacoma for my sons wedding. We stayed here for 6 days before the wedding weekend. The house was plenty big to hold all of us 3 kids 5 adults and two nights an extra adult. The kids LOVED the sports court , they played tennis a few times a day every day and the littlest rode the little riding bikes. On the only rainy day we had the projector screen tv and Xbox games were a hit.
The VIEW from the living room and kitchen and bedroom and the large big deck were amazing. Lots of outdoor furniture to sit on and enjoy the view and have a meal on the large outdoor table.
Stephanie was always available for questions and any little problems that would pop up. She is a very pleasant friendly nice host. The neighborhood was wonderful, quiet and very walkable. We would definitely recommend this house and host and would stay here again if we came to Tacoma. Thanks Stephanie.

Very nice, but it had one problem for us.
Nice house and view. Plenty of room for all of us. Kitchen had lots of dishes, pans, etc. Balcony with gas grill was a nice place to have meals. The 3 bedrooms with the beds were fine. The problem was the very steep driveway and the two steep flights of stairs from the street to the front door. All but two of us are in the 80's age and one uses a walker, so we had difficulties. Please add information to the description of your house using pictures and words to describe the driveway and the front steps. It would be good to also mention the steep back yard. Luckily, we didn't need to use it.
Family from across the country came together and thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful home. We filled the place up and there were blankets and towels to spare. The kitchen is very well equipped and the outdoor spaces are unbelievably beautiful. Kiddos scootered, played basketball, and generally had a blast. The hosts were readily available and so kind. We highly HIGHLY recommend this beautiful home.
Communication with owner was excellent, always responded promptly to any questions we had. Property was spacious in and out. Views of water and sunset were fabulous. House has everything you need, well equipped kitchen great front area and back deck for gathering and enjoying the beautiful sunsets. Location is close to shopping and restaurants.
Loved it!
Family was able to safely gather in a spacious, warm, and well stocked home. Our stay coincided with significant snowfall and cold snap. The backyard served as a wonderful play area for kids, there were plenty of toys and books as well. Having grocery stores and playgrounds nearby was great. Communication with owner was clear and helpful. Would definitely recommend (or consider staying there again ourselves).
We spent time in the area on a golf trip and had THE most incredible time at this home. Hosts were hospitable and we couldn’t have had a better time. The sport court and basketball hoop was well kept and an absolute blast!
Met up with two other families with small kids. The house was perfectly equipped for our crew. The backyard with sport court is so fun. The house has a common area on each floor so our kids chaos didn't overflow everywhere. And the views from the entire house are gorgeous. Host Stephanie was attentive and responsive. Great experience!
Our stay was simply lovely. This was a paradise for our kids. Spacious, clean, fabulous view; we even had two whale sightings! Helpful responsive management.
This is a location that is beautiful for the views overlooking the water & for stunning sunsets. We thoroughly enjoyed the pickleball court and appreciated that paddles & balls were available (although, if you are a regular player, bring your own). Delightful having so many places to gather and visit. Photos represent each of the rooms accurately. Very generous for the owners to have a fully stocked kitchen, including spices, and lots of pots, pans & serving bowls.
We rented this VRBO for a family wedding being held nearby and definitely will consider renting again in the future.
Friends and I had a fantastic time staying at this property. The terraced yard and sport court were perfect for all the lawn games we brought with us. Mind-blowing views of the Puget Sound. A great time was had by all!
We had a fantastic stay at this house. Owners are great and communication excellent. It was bigger than it looked in the pictures so even though we were a large group we fit with no problem. It was great to stay in a house that people live in as that meant the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and spices etc.... And it was decorated for Christmas! Great neighborhood close to stores. Would highly recommend this home and would stay there again.
We really enjoyed our stay and it was a great location for back and forth to Chambers Bay! Stephanie was great at immediately responding and made communication easy. The home has a wonderful view and was very relaxing to come back to during a very busy weekend. Thanks for sharing your home!
A highlight of a stay at this location is the view of Puget Sound, both from inside the house and from the deck & patio. The sport court is also a real plus for a group with children. Location is very good and the owner was very prompt and receptive to any communication.

It is so rare to find property like Stephanie's home in University Place!
The house is amazing, and the host is wonderful! My family enjoyed it very much. The property is everything it says it is plus more. Great neighborhood too with a million dollar view! I highly recommend it!

Puget sound paradise!
First of all, Stephanie is a wonderful host. Prior to arrival she answered questions, sent us a Tacoma magazine, suggested things to do, places to see and did all she could to make our stay wonderful. A couple of minor issues came up during our stay and she was very prompt in answering and all was solved in just a few texts!
Now, when we first walked in through the door, the vista before us was breathtaking. Mere words cannot describe the beauty of Puget Sound in the daylight, let alone at sunset. The house was spotless and rooms were sorted out to all the family...13 of us! No one complained about anything. The kitchen is well-appointed as are the dining areas. The deck became a huge favorite for all of us. How lovely to sip a glass of wine whilst looking over God's creation. We had 4 grandchildren with us and they enjoyed sleeping in the play room bunkbeds. Not all our family lives in one state, so these kiddos got to visit and be together in the same room! We also had a baby with us and the pack and play was great. The jungle gym in the back yard was well-loved by the littles. The tennis court was a hit as well. They have a large family, so the house is situated for a lot of movement, relaxing and fun.
I really don't know what more to say than all of us had a wonderful time, we laughed, cooked, played games, watched the littles play together and enjoyed a vacation that we will never forget. Thank you, Stephanie for allowing us to stay in your lovely home and making this family reunion/vacation as wonderful as it was! We all definitely recommend this property as a home away from home in Puget Sound!
Mary and family!

About the host
Hosted by Owner/Manager
We are a busy family of 7! We live in the home during the year, and rent out during the summer. You'll find many items you're welcome to use in the home!!
Why they chose this property
We knew we wanted a large year for our kids and could work with whatever the house had to provide. The home is perfect for us and our large family. We hold youth group at the home each week and love entertaining and playing games on the court.
What makes this property unique
We are within walking distance to the home of the 2015 US Open Golf course. The course has a beautiful walking path around it, but it is not for the faint of heart as the path is steep on the way back up. You can drive down to the bottom of the path and walk across the bridge to the water and enjoy the view.
