We are available for questions, advice, or emergencies by phone, text or email. We will be happy to respond in person for any emergency with the property.
The Mellow Yellow Guide Book is available in the house. It offers great local recommendations for food and beverages, attractions, or anything you might be seeking. It also gives instructions on how everything in the house operates.
We are nestled in the heart of beautiful North End Tacoma, a ten-minute walk to the popular Proctor District or 20 minute walk to 6th Ave District offering delicious restaurant and beverage options. The neighborhood is very centrally located with quick freeway access. It is an easy commute to nearly every part of Tacoma including the hospitals, Tacoma Dome, University of Puget Sound, downtown and the waterfront. We are close to a major bus line as well.
You will have access to the whole house and yard. We do have a couple locked closets for storage of our supplies, otherwise, the house is completely setup for guest use.
There is plenty of parking on the side of the house as well as 2 parking spaces out front.
You will have access to the entire house. You’ll have use of 4 bedrooms (2 queen beds, 2 twin beds and 2 full beds). There are 2 full bathrooms (1 with a bathtub, 1 with shower). One of the Queen bedrooms and the Twin bedroom (2 twins with trundle bed) and one bathroom are located on the main level. The 2 Full beds can be found upstairs in our "Kids loft" though adults are welcome to stay and find their inner child in this sweet space. The other Queen bedroom is located in the basement.
The upper living room offers a cozy sitting area with books, games and a smart TV for your family’s enjoyment. The kitchen has all the essentials including a gas range/oven, refrigerator, coffee maker (both drip coffee and single coffee pod use available), microwave and toaster. Just off the kitchen is a large dining area that seats 6 and a bar that seats 2. We also have a folding table in the basement that seats 4 that is flexible to move around the house/yard as needed.
The laundry room, kitchenette and "Game Room" are located in the basement with access to the backyard. We have Cornhole boards for you to take out on a sunny day, as well as outdoor dishes you can use for a family dinner in our park-like yard.
The backyard is fully fenced for the kiddos and pups. The large 6 person hot tub is the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
We gladly welcome pets with a flat $120 pet fee used for our stellar allergen-free cleaning protocol.
The house is on a corner with free street parking in front of the house and on the side street, as well as throughout the neighborhood. Please do not park in front of our neighbor's house as that is their only parking area.
Our neighborhood is an enjoyable area to walk in. Everything you might need is within a few minutes of the property. If you don't have a vehicle, there is easy access to public transportation and the Proctor District with grocery stores, restaurants, bars, and Post Office is a 10 minute walk.
