Perfect Setting, Great House, Beautiful Sunsets!
We absolutely loved our stay at this property! The house was perfect - clean, spacious, fully stocked. The layout is great for for two families to spread out but also provides perfect gather spaces. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed to cook for and serve a group of 8. The lakefront setting is the best part about this property. The sunset view is AMAZING! Our family spent hours and hours in the water, kayaking, paddle boarding, and just floating around. We had a boat to explore the lake and discovered the most stunning view of Mt Rainier just around the corner. We cannot wait to go back and enjoy everything this property has to offer!

Due to its prime location and pristine setting, the “HomeAway” Lake Tapps House provided the ideal opportunity for my visiting family to experience the complete Pacific Northwest summertime experience we've grown to love and enjoy. The house was spacious, spotlessly clean, and well-maintained. Highly recommend +. 5 stars!
