Why Saundra Mock chose Des Moines
We purchased this particular property because the neighborhood is clean and safe, and the house met the criteria we were looking for in a vacation rental; Its close to the freeway, lite rail, the airport and Seattle, as well as Tacoma so ideal for the business traveler AND vacationer. It's also next to a State Park and the beach.
