Quaint home and neighborhood

This was our 1st time on the west coast and our 1st stop on a 2 week vacation traveling the Washington, Oregon, and California coast. We loved this town the most of all. This VRBO is very quaint and quiet with friendly neighbors. There is a neighborhood establishment to have a drink and food a block away that was very friendly. There are many other places that are easy to walk to. The host lives upstairs and easy to contact. She only offers keys on a chain to wear on your wrist and the door remains locked, and we did lock ourself out when sitting on the patio. She had to come down to open the door, putting a lock box on the front door would eliminate that issue.

Charming Cottage

This beautiful cottage was oozing charm. The 1920s bakery turned cottage was the nicest vacation rental we have ever had the pleasure of staying in. We have stayed in vacation rentals from England to Australia and none had the coziness and charm that this lovely cottage has. We strongly recommend anyone traveling to the greater Tacoma area to give this place a try. As VRBO owners ourselves we will definitely be returning guests.

Unacceptable bed set up

Bed situated against the wall made it tough when you had to use bathroom in middle of night. If we had known the bed situation we would not have booked

Comfort and charm

So clean and so much thought put into a small but well-appointed place. Bed niche was cozy and comfy. If you need to sleep separately, you could sleep on the roomy couch. Property has a unique history as a home bakery and the owner has decorated with nostalgia (I actually found a little Chaucer to read!).The little kitchen is well equipped with utensils, appliances and treats. The living room is spacious and well lit, and the bathroom is sparkling and convenient to the bed. Location is quiet and walkable, but do research to find food. Owner most helpful, understanding and kind. Would be glad to return there if we return to Tacoma. Recommendations: Happy Hour at Primo Grill (good food) on 6th, and the Antique Sandwich Company up in Ruston. Five-star experience all around.

Can’t wait to visit again!

We had a fantastic stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The bed was super comfy, and the location was very convenient for everything we wanted to do. Carol was such a sweet and thoughtful host—her hospitality made our stay even better. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Just wonderful!

Carol’s place is super cute and I loved all of the early 20th century memorabilia and furniture. Great neighborhood to take a walk in, not far from Wright Park which is a definite must see. The bed was really comfortable and her little kitchenette area works just fine. She was very responsive and kind and even gave me some kitty liter when I arrived with my cat, I’m relocating, so I didn’t have to go shopping. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone else.

The overall stay was spectacular, only complaint would be for the placement of the bed, I had to crawl over my partner to get to the bathroom at night.

As soon as we walked up to the property, the charming neighborhood and vintage architecture won us over! We absolutely loved how cozy the little studio apartment was. It felt like a dollhouse! One of our favorite features was the vintage sink and kitchenette. We thank the host for being so hospitable and sharing this rare gem in history with her guests!
