Located right on the water in a quiet and rural part of the state, this gorgeous and relaxing home on three acres welcomes you and your guests to Allyn, Washington - one of Puget Sound's best kept secrets! The home was originally built in 1971 and has undergone two significant updates (the most recent in 2015). The prior owners completed most of the updates and had the home for 25 years! Before them, the house was owned by football coach Don James and his family (Go Huskies!).

This two-story vacation rental entices each guest with a relaxing stay as well as updated amenities throughout to ensure the utmost comfort during your stay. Feel creative with your food in this well-equipped island kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances and counter seating for four, while formal meals can be enjoyed together in the adjacent dining area. Just a few steps away you can enjoy a nice seat while relaxing, and stream Apple TV with local channels and streaming capabilities for Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and (with guest accounts).

Property was great. Management company awful.

The property itself was wonderful. Great location, gorgeous house, tons of wildlife around. We loved sitting on the deck and looking at the views and paddling in the water. Only negative is the property is hard to find and the sign is barely visible. The management company for this property is pretty awful though. Pre-arrival, I had some questions and each time, they took several days to answer. We had no idea if early check in would be available until noon on the day of arrival. On our way there (which was already after check in time), I got a call from a local employee telling me that the hot tub needed to be refilled and wouldn’t be available that night. Also, the septic tank alarm was going off, but they reset it and it shouldn’t be an issue. For the inconvenience I was told they would give me a $50 credit. Several days into our stay, we went to throw out trash and found that non of the trash bins were emptied so we had nowhere to throw things away. It took almost all day of texting with the property management to get someone to come and empty them. Also, at one point I had a question about the fire pit on property and they kept telling me it wasn’t part of the property, even though I was staring straight at it and it was in the pictures on the listing. Now it’s been almost a month since we left the property and still no credit. I’ve spent days going back and forth with the management company again asking about the credit. Still nothing.

Perfect location with a great view!

Beautiful house with tremendous views of Mount Rainier across North Bay. Loved how peaceful and quiet it was. Would definitely rent this house again next time we are in Allyn visiting family.
