Lakeview Tacoma, also referred to as simply Lakeview, is an excellent option for renters seeking a new home that’s close to plenty of amenities. Lakeview is packed with shopping plazas, restaurants, parks, and service-based businesses. Similar to many Washington locals, Lakeview residents enjoy spending time outdoors, so you’ll find them at Gravelly Lake or Steilacoom Lake right outside of the neighborhood. Seeley Lake Park is another local favorite for its loop trail and view of wetlands. The neighborhood offers mid-range to upscale rentals in a variety of styles including single-family houses and apartments. Lakeview renters also appreciate the neighborhood’s proximity to several major destinations. The neighborhood is convenient to McChord Air Force Base, Pacific Lutheran University, and Clover Park Technical College. Interstate 5 allows commuters to travel to Tacoma, Federal Way, and Seattle with ease.
