The Captain's House sits at the top of a bluff at the end of a quiet dead-end street, three miles from I-5. Renovated in 2021 and furnished by the family who gather here for reunions, it holds two suites: First Mate's Quarters on the main floor and Captain's Quarters upstairs. Book one, or take the whole house as All Hands and sleep up to 14.
The lower suite, the upper suite, or the whole house.

Northeast Tacoma · Washington
One house on a bluff with two suites you can book apart or together. Commencement Bay, the harbor, the city, the Olympics and Mt Rainier from every deck.
Each has a site of its own with photos, beds and dates.
Bring a jacket, pull up a chair and watch the harbor lights come on.
Fourth of July
On July 4th the shows go off all around Commencement Bay for hours, and the bluff puts you above all of them. Guests watch from the decks and the fire pit while the bay lights up below.
The house is amazing. We had 14 people including 6 children and didn’t want for anything.
Glen and his family renovated the Captain's House in 2021 as a place to gather for reunions, and stocked it with the things they enjoy using themselves. When the family is not here, they open it to guests. Glen's son, a professional maintenance handyman, looks after the house, and likes to sit out in the garden and meditate with the view.
