we loved our stay at the reddish house! the house itself is beautiful, the kitchen was incredible, and everything we needed for our week was within walking distance. the yard was super cute and we enjoyed some time on the back porch when the sun was out! we didn’t know that we would not have AC for our stay, but a standing fan in the bedroom helped with the temperature.

Comfy stay in Tacoma

Excellent 2 bedroom home, spacious rooms with 2 full baths. My wife and I stayed here for our son's wedding this past September. Nice laundry facilities, kitchen, dining and living rooms. Great location, easy to get to restaurants and shopping. Easy drive to Point Defiance Park and the water. We would definitely stay here again when we visit our son.

Cute home in a cute neighborhood

Came to Tacoma as part of a cross country trip, and to visit family. The Reddish house was very close walking distance to my family and offered the additional convenience of shopping and dining places near by.

This property was exactly what we were looking for for our visit to the national parks. We were conveniently located. The property was very clean. The bathrooms were clean and remodeled. The beds were very comfortable following a day of hiking and exploring. The kitchen was well stock, however we did not use anything in the kitchen, except the refrigerator.

A little gem in Tacoma

It’s beautifully decorated and redone. The hosts were lovely and very responsive. It’s so close to a lot of restaurants and shops but still very peaceful and quite. It’s well equipped for the exception of condiments and spices. If I had to stay in Tacoma I would definitely stay here again.

Reddish House

This house is in a great location and was very comfortable and clean. We enjoyed the front porch and watching the squirrels glean their winter stash. Tha back yard space looks amazing. Wish we had more time to enjoy. Thanks so much!

Great Stay!

We enjoyed our stay here. The house was just as described, super clean and comfortable. It was nicely decorated, and there was a detailed information binder. Check-in/out was seamless, and communication with the owner during our stay was quick and easy. The downstairs portable air conditioner didn't really work during our stay, but it was a minor inconvenience. Luckily, the evenings were cool. It would have been nice to have screens on the front windows, but we opened them up anyway and didn't have any bug issues. The neighborhood was fine, though a little noisy early in the morning on the weekend. We felt safe and the location is an easy walking distance to several shops and restaurants.
