• We are located right off South Jackson in between Tacoma and University Place. • We are on a major bus line and a short distance to the main freeway. • It's an easy commute to downtown Tacoma, JBLM or anything the south sound has to offer. • Walking distance to Harbor Greens grocery or a few minutes drive to Whole Foods or Trader Joes. • Lots of local bar and restaurant options all around us that are a short walk or drive away.
Garage is available for guest parking-2 vehicles. EV Charging Station is located inside of the garage.
Plenty of free parking; 2 spaces in front of the garage + approximately 4 vehicles in the "front yard" area + 2 off to the left side of the driveway.This allows for approximately 6 vehicles with room to manuveur each vehicle for easy entrance and exit.
We are located on a major arterial through Tacoma so its a straight shot to the highway, 6th Ave, University Place, etc.

Most of Tacoma is a short drive away and we’re close to a major bus route to make the Proctor District, Cheney Stadium (for Rainier’s games), University of Puget Sound (UPS) and the Tacoma Hospitals an easy commute.

Wonderful!
One of the best rentals we’ve had for our family get together. Even though it’s on a busy road, it’s not too noisy. And each bedroom is very private. The view is lovely. I’m saving this one for future family get-together!

We had a family gathering for Christmas, the house was just as described, well appointed, with plenty of room for the eight of us. The communication with kat super good, always a timely response every time we reached out to her. We really enjoyed our time there and look forward to visiting again soon.

Large space with luxurious bedrooms
Great home for family reunion including kids and pet (3 large bedrooms with 4 large beds, 3 bathrooms, 2 family rooms, pool table, parking, EV charger, washer and dryer, deck, large grassy yard)
Good location; pretty view over the Sound. On a busy street, so walkability low. But it’s only a 2 block drive to Sunset play park, pizza, sushi & Thai restaurants, and barely 5-10 minutes to drive to the water, The Children’s Museum, Fred Meyer.
The furniture, bedding, decor and linens, towels are impeccable and cozy; the appliances are beautiful and functional.
Supplied kitchen basics, including seasonings. There were great coffee options including drip, French press & pods, and a water filter pitcher in the large refrigerator
Front entrance, main areas, back decks & guest bathroom on main floor are all wheelchair accessible, but the spacious back yard, and some inside areas are not.
Consider adding a couple more saucepans, a small shower stool for elderly visitors, and a booster seat for toddlers?

Comfortable, Versatile Property
My family and I (group of 6) stayed at Narrow’s Nest in late July/early August of 2024. We thoroughly enjoyed our seven-night stay. We had a few questions at the beginning of our stay and we found Kat to be very communicative & she responded quickly.
Our group of two senior-aged couples & 2 of our adult children loved the variety of spaces available at Narrow’s Nest. There was plenty of room to gather as a group, and nooks here and there to spend some time alone or in smaller groups.
The kitchen was extremely well-equipped and we also made good use of the gas grill on the balcony/deck. The outdoor space was pleasant and it was fun to take turns in the hammock.
We also took advantage of the washer and dryer — so convenient! The location of the home was advantageous for us as we were visiting with family who lived nearby. Thanks, Kat, for such a great experience!
Great place to stay with our family. Big house, great location, plenty of room

Great family space and pretty sunsets
This property was great for an extended family stay. We really enjoyed the game room and yard. We also loved watching the sunsets. The location is close to several restaurants and breweries. Be sure to check out nearby Narrows brewing for a great charcuterie board, games and amazing sunset views. Property would be five stars except that it could use a little updating in the kitchens and bathrooms, but I would still recommend a stay here!

Excellent place to stay
We visited the area for a family week. The house was chosen because of the number of people it would accommodate and the proximity to other family living there. It worked out well. Tacoma has many free parks that are great for kids, and we also enjoyed Wild Waves and a trip to Olympic National Park.
The host was generous... providing a wonderful basket of complimentary goodies, and even supplying immediately swimming towels for us when we requested them. Soaps and other sundries were ample. A fully stocked coffee bar is even included. The house is clean and fresh...no clutter. There are some games and books that are available, but it's not overdone. The labeling of every drawer and light switch is extremely helpful.
The location is very convenient to grocery shopping and fast food places if that is of concern. The only downside is that it's on a very busy street, making getting out of the driveway a little tricky. The backyard is much more private, however, and is a good spot for enjoying the Cornhole game provided.
The beds are very comfortable, the air conditioning works well, and the view out the back is even better than I expected. You get a good view of the water and lovely sunsets. All in all, a great find.

Perfect for our multi generation family
This house had all you could need for a family our size. So much space and a good layout to accomodate adults and kids. Easy to access main floor Master with lots of room for my elderly father in law and his scooter. A second King room as well as a queen is much appreciated. 4 tweens and teens easily shared the double queen room and the downstairs play room was perfect for their entertainment. Location suited us as a midway point between for local family. And an amazing view!
