We had a wonderful stay at this cute cottage. It was very clean, well appointed and the hosts are personable and responsive. It is walkable to the Proctor District, which has many restaurants, shops and breweries, as well as very close to a small park and walking trail. We made great use of the lovely deck in the back, which has a table large enough for 6. We would stay there again!
My wife and I stayed three nights and loved everything about the property. Great location, very well appointed and beautiful deck for relaxing. Danny and Teres were so nice and welcoming we would recommend this place over the other ten plus locations weâve stayed at in Tacoma.
We really enjoyed this lovely cottage and our hosts were so considerate and welcoming when we arrived. Everything we could have needed was there and the furnishings were very comfortable. We were visiting family in the proctor area so this location was very convenient. A very short walk to the market and shops. We would definitely book again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It was cozy, well appointed, and we enjoyed sitting on the back deck. The location was perfect for seeing our daughter on campus and exploring the proctor area. Our hosts were delightful and helpful. Itâs a trip we wonât soon forget.
We had such a wonderful warm welcome as we stepped out of the car upon arrival! The cottage was lovely and comfortable. And so convenient to restaurants, coffee shops and grocery stores. We walked every day and questioned whether we really needed a rental car during our stay! It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and we will return.
I couldn't rave more about the location of this cottage--walking distance to great restaurants and shopping. But equally private and quiet in the cottage/neighborhood. I loved it and would definitely stay again.
It is a in a nice location, with easy access to the area. We loved our stay there. The owners are very friendly and go out of their way to ensure you have have a delightful stay. They also had exceptional communication with us on our inquiries related to booking and during our stay. Thank you
Perfect location in the Procter District. Easy walking distance to grocery stores and restaurants and a quick drive to Point Defiance Park and the waterfront. House had everything we needed.
This is the second time staying at Dannyâs cottage. Was just as lovely this time. Perfect location near Procter and UPS. Quiet and cozy. The steps to the upstairs bedroom are steep and quite narrow but this was not an issue for us.
The cottage was absolutely the best ever!! From location to perfectly fitting for my grandson to stay part of the time, to a great kitchen for preparing all my pies and dishes to take to the big Thanksgiving feast a few minutes away. Comfy and cozy, and wonderful peace and neighborhood atmosphere from start to finish. Would stay here anytime family gets together in this area, and maybe even just as a fun, walkable place to spend time exploring this area. Hosts were the best ever!
My husband, myself, and our 3 year old enjoyed our stay at Thistledown Cottage. This home is located in a lovely neighborhood. It is safe and quiet and close to lots of shops and tourist destinations. The house was equipped with everything we needed during our stay. Would definitely stay again!
The house was perfect for us. It was easy to get to from the airport and in a quiet neighborhood. The house is well taken care of and the next time we come to visit we will look to use it again.
This place was perfect for me, my husband and our 26 yr. old son.
I grew up in the area and we were back for a memorial service.
Great place, great neighborhood. Able to walk to many shops, restaurants, etc. Deck was really nice. The hosts were great to work with, very helpful.
Would definitely stay here again!
Owners, Danny & Teres, are a Scottish / American couple who are teachers (retired), visual artists and savvy travelers. We have created a space that we, ourselves, would enjoy staying in while away from home.
This cottage is next door to our 1904 family residence. We bought the house, built in 1908, to create a guest house for friends, family and visitors to the beautiful Pacific Northwest. We have preserved the integrity of this post Victorian cottage, while adding modern comforts.
Our North End neighborhood is a very desirable area of Tacoma. Our location is quiet and safe, yet only minutes away from the vibrant Proctor District and also the University of Puget Sound. It is perfect for UPS' Parents Weekends, graduations etc. It is an ideal spot for those traveling on business. It is centrally located to explore the Seattle / Tacoma area, ski slopes, Puget Sound and Pacific Ocean beaches, waterways and islands. All can be day trips. Tacoma is in the midst of a cultural revival as found in such places as the Tacoma Art Museum, Museum of International Glass, the Washington State Historical Museum and the LeMay Car Museum. Cottage is ideally located for golfers wishing to play Chambers Bay, home of the 2015 US Open.
