Great location, great hosts, great home
We had a wonderful experience staying at the Point Defiance bungalow. We wanted to be close to family and Point Defiance and the location was perfect. The hosts made us feel very welcome. They are great communicators and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. They even delivered replacement kitchen tools to us on the day of our arrival (some went missing). We found the house super clean and well outfitted. The kitchen was much more complete than other VRBOs that we have stayed at in the past. The location is great, especially if you like to hike. The trails in Point Defiance are fabulous. Being close to Rustin and North Tacoma is a big plus too. We plan to stay here again the next time visit family in Tacoma.
