About this property
Waterfront Home on Lake Tapps
Come enjoy a beautiful lakefront property! The kitchen was remodeled in August, 2021, and an 8 foot tall French door was installed leading to the deck. The upper level Master Suite features a king bed overlooking the lake and adjoins a sumptuous en suite bath with a double shower, soaking tub, and heated tile floor. Two additional bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with two twins, and a full bath complete the upper level.
The downstairs features an open plan family and dining area, a living room with a full-sized pool table, a dining room with table seating six, and a laundry room and a ½ bath. The spacious kitchen features new stainless steel appliances and offers island seating for four and has large windows overlooking the deck and lake so you can enjoy the view and keep an eye on your family and friends while preparing meals. An additional table for six sits nearby.
If you tire of spending time on the lake or in the yard, you can always retreat to the family room and relax in front of the flat screen tv or shoot a game of pool. The hot tub on the deck is another great option, too. A gazebo in the back features a seating area and a rock fireplace, perfect for gathering in the evenings and roasting marshmallows for s’mores. In winter months, the house is conveniently located about 45 from Crystal Mountain Ski Resort.
In the summer months, swim in the lake or paddle our sit-on-top kayaks along the extensive 45 mile shoreline. The lake has many inlets and interesting places to explore, and much of it offers gorgeous views of Mt. Rainier.
Please note that Lake Tapps is a reservoir that is lowered from late October through late April each year, and motor boat access is unavailable during these months. The lake level lowers approximately 3-10 feet.

No guests, parties, or gatherings allowed. Non-compliance may result in early departure.
Please be considerate of our neighbors and observe quiet hours from 10 pm to 7 am. NO PETS/NO SMOKING

Hi! We are Lori and Ray Gartner
I am a native of Seattle, and my husband Ray hails from Missoula, Montana but has called the Pacific Northwest home for nearly 30 years. We live in Bellevue, Washington, where we work full time and have raised three children. We enjoy boating and outdoor activities like camping, hiking, and travel. The greater Seattle area has many fun and interesting offerings, and we never tire of its beauty.
